So you have built your site or blog and filled it with content and a few ads here and their but how do you actually get people to read your site and click your ads? This is the stage at where most people fail they have got this far and expect people to come in their hundreds to your site. The reality is without putting in a little bit of work you will be lucky to attract anyone.
A new site needs to builds its way up in search engines and create a web presence the best way to do this is to exchange links with other sites. Approach around 10 websites in the same topic area as yours and offer to exchange links, this means you place a link to their site on your site and they do the same for yours. If any of them take you up on your offer simply place the following code on your website swapping the URL and text to theirs. <a href="http://www.url.com">Text Here</a>.
If you can do this with 10 sites you should start to build your traffic up and increase your search engine rank. You may also want to post adverts to your site on forums relating to your site or on blogs etc but make sure your post is not against their TOS.
Lastly try to think of other places where you can advertise your site for free to the relevant target market. Originality is good when marketing your site as you are more likely to drum up interest.
