    I created and produce a weekly reality web series that shows the first dates of singles that meet online. I know that this can be big, but I don't have the traffic yet! :(

    I've made the front page of Digg, MySpace, YouTube, etc. but haven't been able to keep that steady, large amount of traffic.

    Any suggestions?

    interesting..... I would also add a blog to the site to help pull in traffic with text... have some kind of way to subscribe to get updates of new vids etc.. also there isn't really anythign explaining what the site is for about etc... just starts you with a video... need little more explanation.

    Takes way too long to load. Before you start marketing it, sort that out first. Even if you do get visitors there, they will not stay long enough to wait for the site to open. You will waste your time marketing it.

    have to agree with piet...takes too long to load.

    It looks interesting but I got fed up waiting for the video to load.

    Maybe take screen shots of the best bits of each video so users can scan through and see if they are worth watching?
