Just wondering, are you referring to getting traffic to your site any way possible?? (eg buying traffic), If you do intend to buy traffic I would highly refrain from it as it will only penalize you against Google and your rankings will pay the price in the end.
You want a million visitors to your website an 8 months thats not going to be easy my friend but it is possible. You can take alook a PPV (pay per view) traffic and using google content network to get traffic. Good luck
Try to publish articles and submit them to directories. Also provide some freebies to a new users and give them permissions to reprint those articles if they keep your url as the signature for example.
He can submit articles but he will need 100's of articles to even hit that mark....and thats a big maybe. He can look at media buying, if he has the budget. He can gain a massive amount of traffic using media buys
If you have reached that massive amount of traffic in the first month I believe you don't need to ask any help.
