RSS (Really Simple Syndication), for a marketers intents and purposes, is a way to build your website traffic and regular visitors virally (one person gets your newest blog post, after subscribing to your RSS feed, and recommends it to another person and so on) and keeps people coming back to your page. Repeat visitors is what is going to make your site a huge success.

If your blog host doesn't already offer visitors a feed for your site, you can add this yourself. There are several popular RSS and Atom feed generator sites, but the most relied upon is Feedburner.com.

Let me know if you need help getting your feed onto your site. You can even create multiple feeds for different sections of your site or have one for each regular feature you write.

You should submit your feeds to Google and other search engines, just as you would submit your sites pages.

Well said madnawat
Those are most excellent ways to promote a site.

And might I suggest for the nitty-gritty money-makers is to create your own Lead Capture Page w/ built-in Auto-responders.

Your 3 Main Focuses should be to:
1. Build A List
2. Build A Relationship With People On That List
3. Market To The List

And Keep Things Simple!

Good Luck,
Dario M.

It seems that many newbies start out on a really tight budget and are told to post free classifieds. That's okay advice but because these sites are free they are inundated with ads and people get discouraged because of the lack of results. I definitely agree that forums are a great way to get your website seen.
Also, niche marketing is great. What are your interests? You can use a software like stealthfriendbomber to do a lot of friend requests on sites like myspace and invite people with similar interests to your channel. Also, if you can, personalize your site. I teach my team to put their own audio and videos on their site. Generic sites that the company gives you just seem to get lost in the masses. Look at leaders in your industry and see what they have done to brand themselves and make their websites stand out. Mimic success.

Website promotion is a time consuming task unless you have the means to outsource Quality Information.
Social bookmarking will allow the search engines to quickly pick up your new website.
A few articles with the top two article directories initially...then change the title each time and submit to the rest .
Forums specific to the theme of you website are excellent a providing you quality backlinks that google bots love...and by placing your details in the signature file ,other members often find what they may consider hidden Gems.
All of the above take time and persistence ,but they do work and results will come...Good Luck

You can write your own article or use other peoples articles as content on your site. Just use articles that are relavant to your site.

Also, here is a good link exchange program
