Default Promotion ideas

I can't seem to get enough visitors to my site even though I have been trying for several months.

Can someone give me some new ideas! What have you done to get more visitors to your site! My target is around 500 uniques a day now.

Try the payperpost.com - it seems to be working well for me.

Perhaps you should have some people review your site. Tell you what they like or don't like about it.

Jordan makes a good point and suggestion too! If you don't have many members or threads going it's important to jump start the process yourself. No one wants to eat at an empty restaurant.

That would work... paying people with successful blogs to blog about you. However, if all they blog about is sites, people might start to get bored.

Not really, I've seen blogs where the purpose is to tell others of cool sites, so it could still work.

With payperpost, if you get enough posts, you can create a "buzz" about your product. Have you ever seen the same advertisement (branding) on several sites that you visit and end up clicking the link?

Also, if it doesn't work out as planned you can at least have multiple links to your site.

True, so it's a win-win situation. It might cost me some money, but I might use that site.

You can also pick up some great deals on AdsBay, I got a site wide link from a PR4/5 site for 1 year for $35, which I thought was great value for money.

Wow, that is a fairly good deal. I assume you own since you have it in your sig.
