1. Forum Promotion

Forum promotion is definitely neither to stick ads in each post, nor to add websites to the signature then repeatedly reply the post like spam. It is both exhausting and vain because administrator could just click the mouse to delete all your posts then blockade your ID. Once I found a sophisticated method for website promotion in some forum. It is a small website that provides info about job employment and learning materials. Their publicists classify the information then post in different forums, which are convenient to people who need the info and not too obvious to be deleted. If you can post information in the appropriate forum that is fit for your self-positioning, a lot of clicks will be achieved.

2. Blog Promotion

Although Google doesn't have hot keywords list, it can be inferred that the daily search volume is more than 100 thousand. If you search for these two key words, you will be surprised at the homepage flooded with personal blogs. Consider that tens of thousands of people visit someone's blog from google then his website every day. Suppose that this website was established in July. The webmaster used his blog to promote his website till November. Soon he succeeded in having a daily ranking in the 10,000 or so on. As we know, those websites providing blog platforms for free have PR value more than six. As long as the keywords are top-ranking, the traffic will definitely increase, resulting in making his website's PR value higher. To some extent, blog promotion can be regarded as an alternative SEO.

3. Picture Viral Marketing

Take the beginning of an article for example. If it begins with a creative publicity method, I believe that will get a great deal of traffic to the site in a short time. The initial impression of this picture often seen in the signature is a small cartoon character holding a sign that reads your IP address, operating system and browser name.

4. E-mail Promotion

Email marketing is based on user's permission rather than send spam or email unauthorized by users. It functions well for it can reduce the disturbance of ads, increase the accuracy of targeting potential customers, enhance customer relationships and develop brand loyalty and so on. Uses' e-mail addresses can be divided into internal and external email list. In fact, the internal list is mailing lists. Therefore you can utilize the information of the registered users to carry out email marketing, such as sending some newsletters, member message, and electronic publications. The external list email marketing sends message in the form of an e-mail advertising to users of service providers. Email marketing based on the permission can either combine with other internet marketing methods or be applied independently

7. Social Bookmark Promotion

It is the best way of website promotion! As long as you recommended one or two wonderful articles, you will get amazing traffic from the social bookmark. Consider the quality of article rather than the quantity. And be sure to read the instructions before recommending in order to avoid breaching the provisions and being blacklisted. If you can establish partnership with them, it will result in increasing traffic each day. You should also consider the time of recommending your articles. The optimum time is the upcoming peak time. If so, your articles will be presented in the Hot Popularity list and attract more visitors. If you recommend at the peak time, your articles will be buried very soon and very few visitors will notice them. Therefore, 8:00 - 8:30 is the prime time to recommend your articles.
