    What are some ways of advertising image hosting, other then stumble upon , digg etc.

    It has PR4 so it should SEO well, is SEO the only way really for traffic to these types of sites?

    If you could get a review from a popular webmaster blog, that could be great exposure.

    Get the word out to people who use image hosting sites...aka forum-goers.

    Try doing a paid sticky advertisement on http://www.offtopic.com (#9 biggest forum in the world) sometime. I remember someone doing an advertisement for their own image hosting site and their traffic exploded within a few days. If you've got the money and the guts, try to make it go viral.

    Just uh, fix that big broken image on your front page first. :D

    A good way is to link to your images on forums, websites. Usually when people go to the image they will end up at your site, so that's a good method of advertising it...

    You need to hang out where the photographers hang out (photo forums).
