Or you could find other writers in the same genre and put out a free short story collection, then you would all be sharing each others' readers.
As I've had free material out since my first day, I have yet to see any proof that free giveaways lead to any significant amount of sales.

I realize, of course, that since my genre is SF, I am seriously being handicapped by a fickle and supposedly dying breed.
