I scripted, and hired someone to work with me on my project toneproof.com It has turned out ok, and is pretty good. However. There are some problems: The money I had budgeted for advertising, is now going into a house. The design is crap and the server its on is crap. Now, I can fix the design, and I can even use a mates server. What I cant do is advertise and linkbuild, without money... That I know of. Whats the best human advertising and building up links as a human? As I seem to have a lot of time on my hands, and I dont mind going around asking people to review the site, ringing people up, leafletting. Any ideas people? :\ Otherwise im just gonna have to sell the site.
you can do blog walkin, link exchage etc. and i think google will prefer it rather than buying a link

You don't need money to generate traffic--it's either time or money. If you have time, you can convert it to money and vice versea.
Luckily for you, the free methods are actually the better ones. you just need to get good at them, and you need to know which ones will work for your site. Not all free methods will work for every site. I typically like to focus on two methods for each site, depending on which ones work best in my testing. These include: Advertising on forums with sig links Article Marketing Search Engine + Link Building Press Releases - works in some cases
There are many ways to build free links: Submitting your site to social bookmarking sites like digg Web Directories Signatures its takes time - you could do a google search something like "how to get back links" and im sure you could find some more ways
