What is your #1 method of getting Traffic to your website?

It doesn't matter if its offline or online.

Whats your story?

posting on forums. Not spamming but posting good comments and critiques.

I will have 20 people alone go to my site for this one post. I look all my stats up in sitecounter and most of them come from forum site comments.

But my site does not make(much)money on traffic, but it helps people learn about my services.

Have been using Craigslist the most lately as you can target either a area or country and its free but watch what you do dont go over the top to much or they will shut your account down and if you experiment it is a very powerful way to promote your sites Forgot to say also that i have started to do 2 blogs as i find these are a good vehicle for promoting your websites.

Since my business is still local Singapore..

I get my traffic through commenting on Multiply and Facebook where most of the people are there!!

Posting on forums is the best, but only if you have something to add to the conversation. I find if I help someone out with information or encouragement it comes back to me in the form of visitors to my site.
I hope that helps.

Relevant forums are great, especially when you have something substantial to say. Updating my website frequently with interesting news items brings back visitors.

I use entrecard for short blasts of traffic but mainly rely on article writing on my own site as well as on other article submission sites. I have become a believer in content is key.

Good content is King and also i try to get some form of news data feed into a site as this will keep it updated all the time.I also have a Blogg which i use for linking from the Blogg to the sites and after i have posted something then i Ping to say that a update of content has taken place.Over the coming week we are having 2 Forums added to the Diy and Gardening websites as we feel people just love to talk about there Hobbies and interests and the Theory is people will want to come back again

I have found that doing press releases and blogs create a pretty good buzz when it comes to traffic to your site.

Before i started my website i did all the research i felt was necessary as to what my site would actually have. For Search Engine Optimization purposes.

Being not very web design savvy i thought that a static website attached to a blog would enable me to bring in the extra visitors but also allow me to design my own site the way i wanted.

The blog will enable me to write unique content that people can comment on and also sign up to [collect details] but it also becomes a way for me to collect ideas and opinions from the public.

Saying that though, at current, most of my visitors come from my facebook group.
I just send an email out every week and invite as many people as possible..hehe
it has worked OK so far.

but i'm going to have to use some more ideas that have already been mentioned - eg. forums.
