Below are 10 good tips which will help you get started.

1) Word-of-Mouth:

word of mouth promotions This is one of the easiest methods of promoting your website. Word-of-mouth promotion can really help in getting the traffic flowing. You should start with your close friends and family, and ask them to tell other people about your website. Maybe send out a few emails to people in your address book. You may be shocked at the results!

2) Create a Blog:

Make a blog about the topic your site is based on. There are free services out there such as Blogger and WordPress which are very good for creating blogs. Make sure your blog doesn’t look like it’s promoting your product/service directly, but rather make it informative and useful. Write an article a few times a week (or every day if you have the chance) and post it to your blog. You can include a link back to your main website inside the blog post. Also, you should tell people about your blog on social networking sites such as Reddit or Digg.

3) Forum Signatures:

Forum signatures are a great way to get a free link back to your site and promote it at the same time. Sign up to a forum about a topic related to your site, and spend some time being an ‘active’ poster, for example, post answers to questions. Most modern forums/discussion boards give an option to insert a custom signature. Put a link back to your site here. This way, every time you post a new message, your link will appear at the bottom of your post. This will help your site get a better search engine position!

4) Reciprocal Links or link exchange:

Links back to your website are important and search engines such as Google love them. Look for websites about a topic related to yours. Email the webmasters of the websites asking them if they would like to participate in a link exchange. If they agree, place a link to their site from yours and ensure that they have done the same. Beware that some may play dirty and remove the link back to your website, so keep checking that they still link back to you often!

Write a medium length (450-700 word) article about your product or service and search for article distribution services on the Net. Some services such as Free Traffic System will distribute your article and post it on other people’s blogs. Make sure you include a link back to your website inside your article.

6) Start a PPC Advertising Campaign:

With PPC, your website is advertised to people who search using specific keywords and you only pay when someone clicks through to your website. Google Ads is probably the best PPC service out there, and lets you set a budget that you are comfortable with.

7) Write a Press Release & Contact Local Press:

When you have created your press release, look for press release distribution services. Another idea is to contact your local newspaper press and ask them if they would consider writing about your website. Always remember that offline promotion is as important as an online promotion!

8) Submit your Website/Blog to Social Bookmarking Sites:

If used correctly, social bookmarking can be a really good source of traffic. I would highly recommend StumbleUpon, a social bookmarking service which will get you targeted visitors in any niche. By submitting your main website and blog posts to StumbleUpon, you can easily get more than 100 visitors to your website/blog each day!

9) Submit your Site to Search Engines:

Needless to say, your site should have a good SEO score.

They can be a great source of traffic and the backlink will help your PR score. The most known web directory is Dmoz, and I would recommend you submit your website there as well as other good general directories such as Best Website Directory. Note that with Dmoz, it can take up to 6 months to get indexed, so be patient!
