    I suggest you to advertise on site with relavant content.

    Or you can try on some video pages, like YouTube.

    Youtube and myspace could work for that age group.
    Also try, gaming related sites. Think more of what could
    be the possible interests of that age group .. and most likely
    those are the best places to advertise.

    I dunno if you're doing it already but I'd always start with google adwords.

    You could also try adbrite on some entertainment sites.

    Yea, I have a blog site (see sig) and I'm willing to spend $200 to promote it. If anyone got a good suggestion, do let me know!

    going cheap on advertising never works..those cheesy local commercials that you see on t.v. everyday don't turn into one of those people

    You could try doing some marketing on myspace, I'm not sure how you'd do it, but that is a strong 16-23 age group.

    One of my websites has an audience of users 16-25 mostly. But of course there are others who come through search engines, links etc of whom I don't know the age.

    What are you hoping to advertise? + do you want banner or text links? PM me if you want my website and/or details of visitor stats per month etc. (As I think advertising it here breaks forum TOS??)

    I agree with aiming at social networking sites as a vast majority of the users are young teens to young adults. I also feel that advertising on a variety of gaming related sites will give you a nice result as the type of users are also in the age ranges. Hope that helped :p and feel free to add me to your buddy list!

    Id have to disagree, if your sites properly optimised on and off site,it doesnt take much money if any.

    Adwords is good but could get expensive fast if you dont know what youre doing, Im speaking from experience as I thought Id just set it up with my keywords and let it go but I was wrong, If you want to get the most bang for your buck it takes some optimising. The most helpful source I found on this was from redflymarketing.
