Here is a strategy that I once used to promote a blog I used to own.  This basic strategy is for beginners and will only take your site so far.

  1. Create a post on your niche site. Make the post informative to your readers.
  2. Find 5 forums that relate to your niche an make intelligent posts on these forums.  Do not reply to others threads with “I Agree” or “Nice Post”.  Have something to say on the subject.  When you register for the forum, make sure you add your site to your signature.  People will click through!
  3. Find 5 blogs that are related to your niche.  Read the blogs and make comments on each.  Subscribe to their RSS feeds so you know when they make a post and then can easily comment on these posts.
  4. Research topics on the internet that are related to your niche.  After your research is complete, create an article.  The article should be around 350-450 words.
  5. After you have created your article, submit it to different sites including social bookmarking (digg, del,icio.us, etc), article directories (articledashboard, ezinearticles, etc), and post on your 5 forums above.
  6. Repeat steps 1-5 three times per week.

From this strategy, I got between 20-50 daily visitors per day.  Like stated above, this strategy is for beginners and can only take your site so far.
