Classified Ads With free classified ads can definitely get hits and possibly some sales. But don't choose this as your only way of getting sales.
There are drawbacks. You ask, "What drawbacks". From my own experience, I've encountered individuals requesting information about my program as a ploy to getting me to listen to their sales pitch. SPAM? Maybe. Annoying? Definitely. The height of annoyance is when they ask me to call them long distance, so that I can speak with them only to have them give me a sales pitch on their program.
However, if you have a classified ad site on your website you've got yourself a built-in opt-in list. You can gently sell to them, while verifying or thanking them for their ad.
Traffic Generators Traffic generators can work on a turnkey site that many others are also partaking in to generate money for themselves. What I found is traffic generators are better suited for turnkey businesses. It is basically a simple way for businesses to entice other people in business to look at your program. You know it's the "I'm not really happy with what I'm doing, but what else is out there" syndome. Or it's the "I really need another program so that I'm not a one-man Joe in business" syndome. In either case, it's a safe place to see what's happening or new on the Internet.
Messageboards, Discussion Groups, Forums -- These are great ways to get your message out and be personal at the same time. But you have to follow the rules, and you should contribute constructive and/or helpful information that is relevant to the discussion at hand. This is a time-consuming way to build sales but a great way to build credibility, business relationships, and sales.
Ezine and Safelist Advertising -- Ezine advertising and safelist advertising are good methods of advertising. In each case, you have to join their list and follow their rules to submitting your ads.
If you want to try your hand at safelist advertising, I would suggest that you create a separate free email account on Yahoo. Why? A safelist allows all that have joined to submit their ads to you, as well as, you to them. Here, your subject line is your eye catcher so choose wisely.

Ezine advertising is a very good way to advertise your turnkey site, website, product or service. You have the option for free (need to watch for their instructions), and various paid ads. What's great about ezines? It's an opportunity to sell to a more targeted market. The more targeted your market, the better the opportunity to get a sale.
Articles Articles are a great way to get the word out about your website and your product or products. However, please make the article informative or you'll lose your credibility and the reader.
