Inexpensive Quality Traffic

I have still yet to master getting solid traffic and quality uniques. I need to find a way thats not expensive, effective, and isnt really time consuming. Should I pay to be submitted to search engines? I know i need to tweak my Meta Tags, but other than that what do I do? Just keep submitting and dont see results. I dont have $40,000 to sink into AdWords maybe max $100, but would it be worth it? I dont want to do traffic exchanges with crappy visits. Someone shed a little light on this topic please.
All input appreciated.

Matt

First - Do not ever pay to be submitted to engines. That's a worthless practice.

Second - Do not submit your site to engines more then twice a month. It's pointless and could be considered spam to certain algorithms. It will not help you get indexed better or increase rankings at all. Once is fine. Spiders will automatically come back to your site for re-indexing.

"I need to find a way thats not expensive, effective, and isnt really time consuming." - Making a living online is convenient yet most people still think it's easy. Well it's not.

With a budget like that, and with what you said right there, the only option is SEO. However it is not only time consuming, but is something you must work on for the life of your site.

So to really answer your question. You will need to put endless hours and sweat into getting worthy traffic if you have no budget.

What exactly have you done to get traffic thus far? In short without telling us your whole life story.

It's best to submit manually.

In 1 week I am #1 for the keyword "easily updatable website" on yahoo.
http://search.yahoo.com/search?p=eas...8&vc=&fp_ip=IN
I have also manually submitted to google, but I'm still on the second page. When this happens, go to high PR sites and add a link to your website. For example, if you search "easily updatable website" on google, the first two results link to my site
http://www.google.com/search?client=...utf-8&oe=utf-8

Ehat are the keywords you are targeting ? And what's your position on both these engines ?
