    I would try PPC advertising on the lesser search engines, and have someone join webmaster forums with your link in the signiture.

    It all depends on how much traffic you want.

    If you want enough to pay your bills, then you are going to have to advertise. There is no other way. Only clueless noobs and complete morons, like the ones here, who have dead sites, think otherwise.

    Why do you bother asking a generic question like this? No one will be able to give you an answer just from a single forum post. It took me a lot of reading, training courses and research on my own to learn different traffic methods. If you're really worried about it, you should really take the initiative and research. Buy some courses on traffic if you have to, because traffic is the basis for you to make any kind of money online.

    There are several ways to increase traffic to your website for free.

    One of my favorite methods is to join traffic exchanges. One of the most popular is Traffic Swarm ....
    traffic exchanges are very good to get your ads in front of many eyes. Just participate in the fr*ee exchanges. It is based on surfing the net and viewing other participating advertisers and you receive credits. The more credits you have, the more your ad is shown to the traffic exchange members.

    You should place classified ads at sites, such as www.Craigslist.com and www.backpage.com These are fr*ee to place ads. You can target a local market. Just make sure that you change the ads a bit if you are going to place more than one for different locations.

    You should also join online communities, such as Direct Matches and Adland Pro, where you can also place classified ads. These communities are free to join and you can network with other business people.
    They also have a very good traffic exchange that you should join.

    Just read the instructions to join the traffic exchange.

    Go to forums, including the ones at Direct matches and Adland Pro. Post to forums...do not do blatant advertising or you will get banned. Set up a signature file and put your website there. Some forums have specific areas for fr*ee ads...use those, too.

    You can find links to some of these resources in the source box below.

    Good luck

    Hi,

    Here is a tip to Improve Business Returns through Viral Marketing

    Viral marketing and viral advertising refer to marketing techniques that use pre-existing social networks to produce increase in brand awareness or to achieve other marketing objectives (such as product sales) through self-replicating viral processes. It can be word-of-mouth delivered or enhanced by the network effects of the Internet.

    Viral marketing is a marketing phenomenon that facilitates and encourages people to pass along a marketing message voluntarily. Viral promotions may take the form of video clips, interactive Flash games, advergames, ebooks, brandable software, images, or even text messages. The basic form of viral marketing is not infinitely sustainable. It is claimed that a customer tells an average of three people about a product or service they like, and eleven people about a product or service which they did not like. Viral marketing is based on this natural human behavior.

    The goal of marketers interested in creating successful viral marketing programs is to identify individuals with high Social Networking Potential (SNP) and create Viral Messages that appeal to this segment of the population and have a high probability of being passed along. The use of varied kinds of public relations both online and offline would create the impression of spontaneous word of mouth enthusiasm.

    The sources to market a product or service through word of mouth are Social Networks, Blogs, Forums, Videos, Articles, Press Releases, RSS Feeds, Web Rings and Classifieds. All these core areas would allow us to reach maximum number of active people online to pass on the information about our product /service. But one should sincerely admit the fact of utilizing techniques makes the difference in marketing the product through online. Everyone would try to promote their services or product but some will get succeeded.

    The most important point need to be considered over here in Viral Marketing is Critics. Yes, critics would be more in this process and therefore, one should be aware of pleasing them. In this process, Patience, Technique and Consistency would be always rewarded.

    Due to the continuous activities performed in the Networks, Blogs, Forums etc to build and maintain good public relations, viral marketing has become the most effective way of Internet Marketing. Therefore, go ahead and be active in every possible Networks, Blogs etc and build good public relations to Improve Business Returns.

    Try getting listed in the 'hosting directories' and maybe set-up an affiliate program that pays a good recurring commission.
