    There is not easy way. All takes time and it is work. If it was easy then everyone would be rich, right?

    Follow all of the advice already given and get to work, that's the hard part.

    For me part of the fun is to learn about all the new tools and strategies to get traffic. Like someone mentioned research some video authoring tools and make something. Make something creative and funny or silly and you might go viral. Recruit some friends to serve as guinea pigs... i mean actors.

    Good luck.

    I know a way to get free traffic i.e. Linkreferral (referral based advertising network), which gives you free website traffic along with the reviews on your website by the users like you and me. give it a try. I could make up to 50 visitors per day.

    First you will need to specify the quality of traffic you want. Getting traffic from search engines such as Google, Yahoo and Bing is the best targeted traffic and profitable you can find. There are many ways to generate traffic online and I am sure people have listed some above but knowing how to deal with it is another subject.

    All of what have been mentioned are great for short term traffic, for example, commenting on a blog will bring you traffic, could be a lot could be little.
    What you need to look at is SEO and your content. The sooner you get into seo and good seo within your blog the better for the sake of longer term traffic and targeted traffic too!

    I noticed your post and have some suggestions for you....

    You said you have a gambling site...this means you can't use certian traffic sources like google adwords (ppc is paid traffic anyway) because of quality score.

    To BEST ways (but not the only ways) to promote a gambling, adult or make money site are:

    Video Marketing - You create little promotion videos about 1-5 minutes long and upload them to video sites like youtube. Its free except you need software to make the videos. Camtasia is 300.00 bucks but you should be able to find a free copy using torrents or p2p. Camtasia is good because it has video editing built in. Smaller programs like snag-it record video but you can't chop up the video and edit it easily... you need another software like window movie maker to edit it. windows movie maker is free to download ...alll over the place. This is the simplest and easiest form of free marketing.

    You can do SEO but you need experience and software to execute the plan. You could use sick submitter which is only 20.00 a month. It has article marketing built in but you will have to learn how to spin it the right way and keep having to do it for possibly weeks to months. sick submitter also has a forum posting module where you add spinnable text and it post onto forums automatically and repeatedly. This will take some work to do. it have many other feature like blog comment ing and other stuff but it take some time to learn and see results

    Article Marketing - (also take some time to see results) write or get someone to write an 1 article cost: 2-5 bucks make sure its 100 percent unique and original. You then spin it using "The Best Spinner" (spinner costs 47.00 with a discount, search online...). Once you spin it you will get hundreds of article variations that you can upload to a article submission service like UAW (Unique Article Wizard, also membership to unique article wizard cost 67.00 a month) Don't for get to add your link into the article...you will get backlink to your site and people can follow link to your site and visit, possibly buying something...or however you monetize your site. This is a great way to market, its been around a long time and its still effective but can take some work.

    You can get better, faster results by using very low cost traffic methods like banner ads. You need to design the banner ads or get someone to design them and then just post them on sites using banner ad networks that specialize in displaying banner ads across the net. costs can be as low as a penny per click for banners

    The last thing you can try that is very low cost is PPV or Pay per view networks like trafficvance.com or leadimpact.com you can reach people for 1/2 cent clicks but you need to target urls rather than keywords. Can be very effective and fast.

    One way or another you will have to spend a little bit of money and a bunch of time. Even if I got my software for free I am still limited on what I can accomplish on my one computer alone. My computer slows down when I use all these software to make videos and stuff so I need to buy ram or when I let software create backlinks it take hours for my computer to complete.

    One way or another you have to put in some time and some money always, in everything. so I pick my favorite poison and get to work. I think video is the best way for the average person to create traffic. You don't have duplicate content issues like article marketing, you don't have to worry about quality score form google as long at the promotion video doesn't have nudity or cussing. videos are faster to create than researching and writing an article.

    One last thing...if you are running a website about gambling or what ever is that what the big guys are making the money? Are the gurus and people that making a killing online running one to even 100 gambling websites? Its possible , but think about people you know are making money and look closely at what they are doing...not what they are promoting.

    Social Media, Youtube, Email. There are a multitude of different free marketing techniques out there...it sort of depends on how much time you have as a lot of these techniques (and ones mentioned) can be labour intensive.

    - SEO
    - Youtube Videos
    - Facebook fan pages
    - Stumbleupon

    Work on them all, search for ways to get traffic from each of those sites, and I'm sure you'll learn how to get free traffic ;)

    Its easy.
    1. Find out, what are you customers.
    2. Build a content or tool that is useful for your customers. Put yourself in there shoes, what would make you load/stay/read/buy/share your site? If you get great content, almost every user returns, some share, etc, go to 3.
    3. Find your customers on other sites, forums, etc. Help them, talk to them, ... Just make sure, it doesn't look like spam, dont force posting your site there. Add your site to that profile and try to make it visible, not primary aim of your posting there.
    4. Keep on building content, making reports of your visir trace and improving your site usability all the time. You will be rewarded.

    you can submit many directory which are free. but it takes 1 or 3 months to approval. i also writing articles to get more backlinks and content of the articles should be unique. social bookmarking and blog posting are also good ways.

    Search engines have always been a major way to get traffic for free. That is why you need to do your homework and optimize your site so that it ranks well for the keywords you target. SEO is still the most powerful way to get traffic for free and you really need to invest some time and efforts in the optimization of your site. SEO is not that difficult and if you want to get familiar with it in a nutshell, check our SEO Tutorial. If you are too busy for that, you can start with the 15 Minute SEO article.
