Just think about the freedoms which you taste while preparing the advertisement. You will realize you will have to be very specific and precise as far as newspaper concerned. However as far as internet is concerned you will have many choices. You can use buttons which on click can directly take the surfer to your website. He can get access to your any chat id and chat with you about the deal. I have used chatting because our job is to predict which is cheaper, newspaper or internet. You can easily answer that chatting is much cheaper. Just realize that all you have to do is to be online and you will be contacted by hundreds of buyers. You will easily realize the drawbacks which Newspaper really has.
