Have you tried a Squidoo lens? It`s free. I`ve used several.

If you PM me I can send you some information...

Getting traffic via SEO ....

I`m not sure that your menus links being in a .swf file is helping you with SEO.

Your English version has an oriental title.

Your javascript could/should be in a separate file.

You have a huge number of tables in your code.

Code to Content ratio is @ 4% ( very low ).

Your left menu links go to a search file(?), with no title/description info that makes any sense for SEO.

You have a large number of validation errors.

There is basically two ways to drive traffic to a web site
  1. Advertisement
    1. Banner ads
    2. Pay Per Click
    3. Pay Per Conversion
  2. Search Engine Optimization (or Search Engine Marketing)
Each of those topics is not just explained in a few sentences. Some here gave you already very bad scores in terms of Search Engine Optimization of your website.

I`d also urge you to not look at this only through the online lens. Make a complete Marketing plan with things like e-mail, website, advertising, customer relation ship management and customer retention in mind.

As a general rule of thump you do not want traffic alone, you want the right people coming to your website/online store and you want them to buy. So think of promotions, seasonal to the right audience, etc. Again you need to make a marketing plan rather than "drive traffic"

I don`t discount the work of any other SEO/PPC company posted here or otherwise; however, I have found a team that I work with that I consider "Gods of Internet Marketing". Even Google indicated they were inpressed with the creative strategies these guys put together! I have seen these guys turn a failing site into a $50,000+ a month producer (within 60 days). Most recently, they increased my employers web business by 40% in the first 45 days. Typically, results take approximately 90 days.
 
Anyway, if you would like to speak with these guys, let me know and I will put you in touch with them.
 
Good Luck,
Amy
