All I can tell you is that you are going to have to self promote it. You can write blogs about it, attach signature links so that people on message boards will see your web address. Also, some websites allow you to post articles for free, like www.digg.com. Use a search engine like google and look for websites that will promote your site for free. There is one called www.thenewestwebsites.com that will feature and promote your site for free. So basically, just get as many people as you can to stumble upon your web address.

There are many ways that you can increase your sites traffic. The best way is SEO and word of mouth and not forgetting, viral marketing as well.

So here are some ways that you can try:

Link Exchanges

Article Creation & Submissions

Directory Submissions

SEO

Word of Mouth

Making some of your content viral

Giving out freebies with your websites link attached

Etc...

Hope that helps and good luck with this.

All the techniques listed above work well, but they take time. Try doing some research on Viral Marketing that may help as well. I have some tips on the secrets section of my website as well. Just remember it does take time.

Blogging and social bookmarking using OnlyWire.com is quick and it is free. Also look at the right hand sidebar of this page and subscribe to Allan Gardyne's newsletter. Then read his "77 Ways To Get nearly all Free Traffic" report and you will be busy for awhile getting free traffic.

Anything that would attract visitors, be it word of mouth, link baits, etc. is favorable in a marketing perspective. What matters is the level of traffic that converts. A viral marketing campaign can prove beneficial if it brings in targeted traffic that converts Wink

A start to your free web promotion will be to get your business URL in your sig. How is the content on your site? Are you listed in all the free business listing websites?
