How We Market Our Site  PortlandRentals.com is designed to be a free service for renters  - this enables us to gain the highest amount of exposure for landlords.  Unlike the majority of other websites, we do not have banner advertisements nor do we have annoying pop-up ads.  Our theory is that these only serve to distract renters from the most important thing: your vacancy listings.  As we build PortlandRentals.com?s renter traffic, we utilize the following channels:  ? Paid Placement  -- We bid to be listed at or near the top of key search engines including Yahoo!?, Google?, MSN?, Lycos?, Alta Vista?, Ask Jeeves? and many more.  ? Web Site Optimization  -- We designed PortlandRentals.com so that it ranks high on the popular search engines for the most popular keywords.  Our premium placement on major search engines gives us both national and local reach.  ? Links on Yellow Page Directories  -- We list in local and national directories for maximum exposure.  ? Local Media Advertisements   -- We take out both print and online advertisements in local newspapers to receive increased renter traffic.  ? Word of Mouth  -- Our most important marketing is from our satisfied customers!  We strive to provide the best customer experience possible - for both renters and landlords.
