both traditional and non. the occasional flyer, and the occasional email. use email more often, and it's more freee'er.

I would say that your preferred method of self advertisement (provided that is what you're talking about) would depend on the kind of work you do and who your potential clientele may be.
The internet would probably best be a supplement to real world, tangible advertisments.
Try sending some of that real-world, tangible ad stuff to places you might potentially desire to hire you, and send it to the right department.
Good luck.

I"m selling domain names and hosting. Right now I"m using google ad sense for about 2 weeks now.
I will probably send out some reps and have them hand out flyers where people go to get their business license.

Web and email are traditional forms of marketing. If you want to break convention, try doing stuff like MediaTemple does - build your network of evangelists. Get people in the know to sing your praises.
The most important lesson in advertising/marketing is this: get in touch with the right people, at the right time, with the right message. Veer is a great example of a company that does this. They get in touch with people who buy their products with a nice printed piece about once a month (designers need their products on an ongoing basis), and the materials are really well crafted for the graphic designer/creative type audience.
I liked the idea of going after the new business people where they get liscences, but your website doesn't seem very well suited to that audience. There's way too much there.
If I'm Joe business owner, and I'm just starting up, I'm in the frame of mind to get things started, get the balling rolling. In that way, you're hitting them at just the right time.
What I would do though, is set up a nice little package for them. Offer them a domain name, 1 email account, and a holding page. Get the price down low, the idea is to get them into your friendly-to-business-owners company.
