For increasing traffic,you should use fresh and unique content in your website,you should perform social media marketing and link building services for your website.

 Agreed completely to your suggestion. Social Media do play a major role in getting links to your site and help in driving traffic. For B2B marketing, sites like Linked_in have a major impact as i happened to find it in one of the businesses. You may also augment your promotional campaign with some promotional items. They would help in building a brand name for your business and help in long run return towards businesses. 

Nice discussion. Both onsite and offsite optimization are simultaneously required to get quality traffic to your site.

I think the best way to drive traffic online is through share fresh and unique content that can drive the attention of viewer and engage them for your future update. It can be done through all the SEO activities followed by social networking, blogging, bookmarking and many more. Now-a-days, Video marketing is also on a boost position. So, you can try sharing video of your products and services. 

SEO and SMO both have great contribution in ranking and traffic of website.You can share your products and services directly with your friends and followers SEO helps you create back-links for website

There are already many great suggestions here! Let me add somethings that hasn't gotten mentioned.

1) Contests: Run a contest via social media to increase likes and shares. This will in turn bring in traffic from those who are interested

2) Ads: Run google ads or facebook ads to be even more specific

Good luck!
