Hey New Start-up

Congrats on your new site! Looks awesome!

How do you promote your site?

-- well, it is a blog -- You must be enlisted in some respected directories like Technorati, Blog Catalog, mybloglog etc -- all of these are trickling traffic but still works.
-- Publish content ( rock solid, informative) content on a regular basis and see the traffic soaring.
-- Leave comments on other blogs ( Especially on the very famous ones like tompeters.com, sethgodin.com...etc. However, just don`t leave a comment for the heck of it. Do it because you have something valuable to share or you might even want to prove something wrong.
-- Try Yahoo Answers ( this works for me! ) -- Answer some questions on Yahoo! Answers and see traffic flowing in ( trickling again, but long term stuff)
-- Forums and Directories are a great place to provide and receive valuable information from others just like you. Startupnation is a great example.

Look around online -- you will find more ideas. In fact this site has loads of information. happy looking and all the very best.

Congrats on your new site!

In addition to everything that has already been suggested, try using a social networking site such as Facebook to encourage traffic.

I`ve driven a lot of traffic to my site using LinkedIn. Since your target audience is very different from mine, you might want to try Facebook. While I`ve just started using Facebook and haven`t had much success, I know a few people who wouldn`t live without it. If you`re not using Facebook to promote your site, read my blog post about using Facebook for marketing.

Best of luck!

Besides LinkedIn and Facebook I`ve been posting to forums - this one and a couple of others that I`ve belonged to for a while. I`ve sent press releases and done live networking. I`ve also posted a lot of content on a regular basis that has been bringing me search engine traffic. I`ve also been posting comments on blogs with similar target markets ... although not as consistently as I would like.

One method that has brought a lot of traffic to my site is offering free teleseminars on topics that my audience is interested in. I`ve interviewed "experts" in the field and then promoted the teleseminars on the social media sites. A couple of these have resulted in a real spike in traffic.
