6. FFA Sites - 'Free For All' Sites can sometimes be high traffic makers. Although they still have to have hits themselves to give you traffic they can produce some excellent results. It would take you years to submit your site to all the FFA sites out there or minutes if you use our free submission script.
With these sites you have to submit to them at least three times a week as often within minutes of being listed at the top you have been removed by newer submissions.
FFA websites can also increase your link popularity which is another important part of website promotion.

7. Search Engines - Search Engines are often very difficult to get listed in. The top engines receive approximately 10000 submissions a day so it can take you months to get listed. They also only show results from a search query which can on some search engines be a nightmare to get your site shown. Google is by far the easiest one to get in the top 10 listing as it doesn't rely on keywords, titles or descriptions.
The best way to get your site listed is to use an automatic submission service or buy your own software This way your site will be submitted constantly and you will get listed quicker and any updated pages will get re-index. If you avoid submitting your website you will lose traffic in the longer term as results normally show after 6 to 12 months from the first submission. It is also advisable to submit your URL to all the other search engines that exist. Use our manual submission page to get this done in super fast time.
To ensure that your site is not removed I would recommend that you re-submit your main URL once a month to the main search engines.

8. Directories - Directories are far easier to get your site listed and shown on result pages. Because they break down the results into categories a surfer can go to exactly where they think a website like yours will be listed. The top two are obviously Yahoo and DMOZ with DMOZ being the quickest to get you listed.
When adding your site to Yahoo or DMOZ please ensure that it is finished and that you submit to the right category. Because your site will be viewed by hand you could lose thousands of hits by rushing into this part of your promotion campaign. See our guide on the ODP to learn more.
It is also worth the time to add your site to all directories known to man. Use our manual submission page to get this done in super fast time.

9. Swapping Links - If you have a website which may be of interest to another Webmasters visitors you can often swap links with them. It is not always a high traffic maker but will ensure that you have a high profile on the Internet. Try to get a good button or banner made up and place a 'link to us' page and a contact address so any Webmaster who wants to swap links with you can contact you easily.
Swapping links also helps to fool some of the search engine spiders into thinking your site is extremely popular and give you higher positioning.

10. Paid advertisement - If you have a commercial website or have enough money then you can pay to get your website advertised on either, other average websites or the very high traffic ones. 
Expect to pay a lot of money for this service as it is mainly the middle man that wins. There are lots of referral software around so you could even cut out the middle man and run your own. Alternatively try ClickXchange where you can run your own advertisement campaign very cheaply.

11. Mailing Lists - Inform your visitors of changes that have been made to your site or just keep in touch with a mailing list. Many visitors find you, use you, forget about you so remind them that you exist and get lots of return traffic. If you have cgi-bin access it is a good idea to run your own script, otherwise head over to Webmasters Tools and sign up to their free hosted one.

12. Website Statistics - The only way you will know where your traffic is coming from and what pages they visit is to have website statistics. If you have cgi-bin access it is wise to buy your own script. If not a good one to have is by  'MyComputer'.
With site stats you can also monitor your most popular pages and which ones are never seen. So even if your not interested in website promotion having website stats is worth its weight in gold.
