3 month old site needs more traffic

    My site was started on Sep. 06 05 and I currently avg. 300-500 Unique Hits a day I'm listen in virtually every SE except Ask Jeeves. I have around 164 pages indexed at MSN / 250 pages at Google / & 24 pages at Yahoo! New pages are indexed every day on Google & MSN.

    I have 2 domains linked to one server so I don't knoow if that's good but I think it is because it doubles my SE Indexes. I have a linkswap form on my site the Friends/Affiliates section with about 20 friends. I run a Humor Entertainment video site.

    What can I do to increase my traffic? I've tried them link swaping sites but I get site that are like online-pharmacy-goods-cheap.com which I don't like and brings no traffic.

    What else could I do?

    try getting link exchanges from webmasters with like content.

    Try and optimize your site some as it seems to load rather slow with errors. Think of ways to make your site stand out. There are 1000's of sites that look just like yours and have the same content. Find something that will pull your site away from the rest.

    I have multiple DS3 connections here. I think its the way your site is rendered as the file size isn't that large.

    Might be the shoutbox or the ads on your site. the page loads with the background, then sites for a while, then seems to refresh with the data.

    Good luck.

    Yup. The site definatley loads a little slow, ads first, then content.

    The table holding the shoutbox also seems to be smaller than the shoutbox, so I had to scroll horizontally.

    get active on forums with your blog site as part of your signature. digitalpoint don't allow signatures to appear, but you can try other high traffic forums like webhostingtalk.com

    Post links to specific unique funny stuff on your site on http://www.milkandcookies.com/ and http://www.i-am-bored.com/. I did that with my sig site and must have received over 20,000 visitors (+ numerous links on other sites) as a result. Get prepared for MAJOR traffic (like over 10,000 in 24 hours).
