Hi. I am a web developer and your question has been troubling me also for ages.

First, read my article here: http://stefangabos.blogspot.com/2008/06/...

If you don't want to read it I'll make a short version of it here: "there is no way you can quickly attract traffic to your website unless you know some website owners whose websites have huge amounts of traffic and they write about you and/or put a link back to your site on the home page or on any other very visible area of their website."

You can search the Internet as much as you want and spend countless days looking for the answer. All you will find is about how to make your website more SEO friendly and techniques to get better rankings in pages - subscribe your website to directories, spam on blogs/forums, use viral emailing, link exchange (i listed only some of the techniques that don't necessary require you to pay money).

But I know that you meant more like "How can I attract traffic now?" not "How can people find me in Google if they search for [your keyword] in two years time".

I built a website trying to help people like you and me. It's called 2famous and it's hosted at http://2famo.us . Create your account and become the one in charge with the Internet marketing and your website promotion and increase your web site traffic now. 2famo.us offers a free and unique Internet marketing service: booking websites on the home page of 2famo.us. Over and over and over again. And of course, everything is cost-free and even ad-free. It's not the kind of "subscribe and forget" service. But rather it encourages you to actively promote your website on a daily basis by booking it on the home page of 2famo.us.

The website is newly launched (it launched on June 16th, 2008) but it aims to be the one solution to people like you and me who don't know the people in the staff of digg and we don't hang out with the guys from techcrunch...

Check it out! and...be famous!

Answer 9

In addition to posting useful/interesting content (without good content you might as well give up...sorry) you can try these two websites.

http://www.adgridwork.com/

This website is great for web advertising. It's a free targeted advertising (based on you selecting various categories you would like to be included in) and link exchange network. You put other websites text ads on your page and yours appears on others. And it really is 100% free, forever. While it's not something that guarantees traffic it also doesn't cost anything, so why not try it?

The same people behind that website also run a free blog review swap and exchange that is useful in allowing you to connect with other bloggers and getting feedback that is useful for your specific blog. http://www.reviewback.com/

Good luck!

I have six great tips for Search Engine Optimization for you....

1) Write great, unique content

2) Try to post regularly (this could be 2-3 times a day, it could be 2-3 times a week)

3) create relationships with like minded bloggers.  creating relationships with bloggers (either online or offline is one way to generate links to your content--which is what maximizes your SEO)

4) Target the Longtail of Search.  be strategic about your title tags.  Spend about 5 minutes learning about the "long tail" as it relates to SEO.  This involves targeting longer search phrases based on your offerings and services.  This allows you to dominate your search niche.  Without looking to the long tail, you are pretty much dead in the water, because there will always be sites like eBay and Amazon....and sites in your larger area of business (real estate, marketing, whatever) that have the advantage.  building credibility, authority, and link love in a niche is absolutely crucial to your SEO campaign success.

7) One way to target the longtail is to geo-target your locale

6) consider creating a hybrid campaign with pay per click advertising to create immediate traffic.  Search engine optimization is great, but its a more long term strategy.  It may be 2-3 months to see big results you are looking for.
