    I have a site http://www.obesitydetails.com
    It is doing ok it has a PR 1 in a few weeks for whatever that is worth
    I think it has a lot of good content
    I am developing some pretty decent links in similar fields
    I have put it on social bookmark sites
    I have some articles on article sites and on other weight loss sites with links
    But I am just not getting a decent number of hits, in fact the hits are poor
    Anyone have any constructive advice about how to generate more traffic

    Hi, the first thing I've noticed is that you haven't included the META tag Description and you need to make more of your TITLE tag on all your pages. Without these search engines are going to struggle to index your pages correctly. Use websitegrader.com for more guidance.

    I agree get a meta tag description. Also not related your goog analytics should be inserted at the bottom of the page...
    Just keep writing content and maybe answer peoples questions on like forums and include a link to an article you wrote about it.
    Good Luck

    Very true. Although I have hard time finding sites related to my service. All I get are the offers from ad posting sites. Sigh...

    I think the site is visually not a appealing site. I am sorry, but can you make it more appealing...

    I guess you need to advertise well your site to get notice, then you can try social media optimization this is the most and popular way to introduce your site or products online.

    Taking on the weight loss niche is about the same as taking on the make money niche or ED niche very competitve. How I began getting traffic within the make money niche was find keywords that were not super competitve usually 50k monthly search volume and below were possible to get within a few months. You can check keyword search volume at https://adwords.google.com/select/KeywordToolExternal

    I would suggest you to put a female's picture there to replace the fat guy's pic because I think you should target female for this niche. lol, just my 2 cents though.

    Add your site do directories and ranking sites like DMOZ, Technorati, Compete, Quantcast, Alexa, ZoomInfo and Crunchbase.

    Add your site to search engine tools like Google Webmaster Tools, Yahoo! Site Explorer and the latest Bing Webmaster tools. :)

    I have just checked your service. A PPC advertising is a way to go for your service, guys. You can charge 3-4 cents per word to compensate for what you will spend on a PPC advertising. At least give it a try, there are hundreds of people out there looking for quality content for their sites.

    Your keyword selection isn't that good. Your target keywords are way too competitive. Revise it, if you want to drive more traffic to your site.

    I have finally started seeing some traffic from Twitter. All depends on the amount of followers there.
