I am trying to decide how much of our product we give away for free versus sell. Obviously the more information you give away, the greater the traffic but the less revenue - I was wondering how everyone else balanced this?
Re: Free vs Pay
I would give away some product but you should get something in return i.e. email then you could run a training series and sell up on expensive product
Re: Free vs Pay
This is the age old complaint get more traffic by giving away free stuff or not - I vote for getting more traffic and using ads to get more business.
Re: Free vs Pay
I would use free stuff to engage them and then I would gradually offer them more value added products for an additional fee
Re: Free vs Pay
Pay is best idea to increase traffic on your site.
It is costly but it is more beneficial as compare to free.

Can not disagree with that! Great post!
Re: Free vs Pay
There is nothing free today, if you want to get something, you have to give something....
Re: Free vs Pay
It's always hard to decide where to put the border between free and paid.
I would say that accessing free content user needs to get something valuable that gives his a felling of participation but on the other side he should be aware that there is something more and he will be able to get it only when he pays.
That means that free stuff should be good but paid - much much better.

We need to look for an equilibrium point. To be the best.
Re: Free vs Pay
well the only source is adding traffic in your websites and attract user to visit your website daily through this way you could earn a lot more then your expectations and really adsence is also the best way of earning so use the both of them for making much more money
Re: Free vs Pay
Indeed, Most companies will have to measure what is presented to give good feedback.
If we have clear indicators. The decision is easy.
