    I can't post links yet - but blogstash has a good 61 things to do to get more traffic.

    Some suggestions without links.
    1. Video (See GideonShalwick's website - his name with a com) through YouTube.
    2. Squidoo (Just do some searches - Squidoo's at the top!)
    3. How long have you been foruming? Wait 3 months tops.
    4. Depends on your topic.

    I'll see tomorrow, or in a week my success using these methods.
    I just need to make a Squidoo and continue my video-making.

    I will post an entire quote of what the 61 says, but I need someone else to post.

    Hi,

    I had a blog that wasnt doing anything, despite having a keyword domain and backlinks

    Then i added a video and RSS feed, and it got on page one of Google for my keyword within 48 hours!

    It's worth a try, only takes a few minutes

    Coolmoss!

    As coolmoss said, VIDEOS!
    A great way to maximize your videos (if you're willing to pay a bit of cash) is to check out TrafficGeyser.

    But here is the list I promised in the above post:

    RSS feeds and press releases are very effective in driving a lot of traffic to your site fast. I would recommend using these on your site, and that should help you get a lot more traffic to your blog fast.

    Content is still king. Keep writing new content on a regular basis and try to make it helpful. Also, don’t pay link building services to Spam the net, instead try to build a relationship with some industry related authority sites with high PR. Just 1 good quality link from a high PR site that’s semantically related is far more effective that 1000 links from abused Spam networks. Over time, if your content is good, people will link back to you.

    You need "targeted traffic" in order to make sales/leads. The best visitors come from:

    1) SEO

    2) Targeted backlinks

    3) Micro-blogging (launch blogs about your niche)

    I would suggest that you work on both traffic and PR.

    It is very important that you social Bookmark all your marketing methods at every opportunity. Whether you have time to do ten or a hundred it should be taken deadly serious. Social bookmarking sites are like gold and should be treated like it!

    Here are my favourite Top Social Bookmarking sites http://myeasyonlinepay.com/top-20-social-bookmarking-sites/. I hope you get help.

    Well I would purchase RSS feed software. You can submit press releases to free sites if you don't have the money to submit your press releases to a paid site.

    Also try Yahoo Answers. Answer a few questions every day in your niche, and submit your link in some of your answers. I get steady traffic to my sites from questions I have answered on Yahoo Answers many months ago.

    If anything else suggested by users above fails, you can opt for buying targeted traffic.

    What you need is quality one-way links, not link exchanges. To improve your search engine ranking, you need more inbound links than outbound links (more people linking to you than you linking to other places). With link exchanges, you give a link to get a link, so you're coming out even. And, who are you exchanging links with? If you're getting caught up in link farms, you could be in big trouble.

    So how do you get quality one-way links? Through great content. Publish content (both on your site and off) that people like, respect, and WANT to link to. By doing that, you're telling Google that your site is relevant and popular, and deserves a higher search engine ranking.

    You say that you're blogging... How about doing some guest posts on other blogs? There are plenty of blogs out there that accept guest posts. By guest blogging, you get your link at the end (a one-way link), and you get your name and link in front of a highly-targeted group of people. If readers like what they see in your guest post, they can click on your link and head to your site.

    I have to agree here, content is king and what Google ultimately respects the most....well other than money that is :) At any rate having quality content and then using the standard methods of promotion such as article writing and publication to reputable article directories, using gravatar and making relevant comments on blogs, posting on forums and that sort of thing and you will gain natural credibility. It will not of course happen in a day or a week, but by the 3-6 month mark you should have built up a pretty good steady flow of quality traffic.

    Message Boards! You would be surprised how much traffic you can generate when you start posting on related message boards with your website in the sig link. Just 30 visitors a day translates to 900 visitors in a month--and you can attain this very easily as long as you create posts and in general participate in the community.

    Yes, I agreed, high traffic forum like DP can be a source of traffic to any site.
