Your Site, Is that Ok? Nothing is really free right? Where is the catch? Wrong! You can get all kinds of stuff for free. Various
companies on the web want you to visit their webpage. Marketing today is harder
and web savvy companies are looking for better ways to connect with their
target audience. IF they offer you a free pen, DVD or perfume sample, it costs
them pennies to mass produces a few thousand samples and You
are directly interacting with their product or company. For comparison, a more "familiar" way of
advertising is TV commercials. One 30-second
television commercial costs on average, around $400,000 and to make that ad can
cost well over $250,000. Suddenly the 3 Dollar DVD and several cents on
shipping doesn't seem so unrealistic does it? That being said, there are some scammy type companies online
and we do our best to sift through and only offer you top quality freebies from
around the world. I love Totally Free Stuff! How do I Bookmark/Favorite

thought you can protect yourself from some of the scams. Some of these companies will start sending you mass amounts
of email or spam after you sign up. They do want you to come back to the site
again and again after all. You should Never
use your home/personal/work email address. You can sign up for one of
many free emails like G-mail, Or Hotmail, or
others located here. If you need more help, click here for a more in
depth tutorial. Same thing goes with Phone number. Many of these companies
may call you for various other things. Most companies should not need your
phone number if they are mailing you something. If the website requires it, use
at your own discretion. Contest will often ask for your phone number because
they WILL call if you win, not mail. Ok... So you have your free email and know about some of the
