If you're in it for the long term, you should write (or buy rights to PLR) articles. Once you write a bunch of these articles, you can submit them to ezinearticles.com, articlecity.com, and goarticles.com.

If you find good related keywords (extremely minimal competition, decent amount of people searching for it... think specific) to your site you can write articles about that, and the articles themselves will get high rankings in search engines you can really find a lot of traffic through articles, and putting articles on your site will help you get better content and better rankings...

Also, you can try SEO (search engine optimization)... the biggest part of SEO is building backlinks... this means posting articles, putting your link on forums (without spamming), and creating yahoo, msn, and google groups pages with links to your site on them.

I share tips on free and cheap advertising on my website here:

I use these methods to promote my PrePaid Legal Business,( http://glyn.buildlastingsuccess.com/ ) and usually get over 1000 hits per day to my site. I highly recommend Market-It as a resource - details on my site.

Avoid automatic traffic purchasing. These services use scripts to send fake customers to your site.
Build inbound links to your website.
Most of the directories online charge a one time fee to review your site and add it to their index. Here are three of my favorites:

http://www.kahmer.com
http://www.joeant.com
The more inbound links to your site, the better you will rank
with Yahoo / Google / MSN.
Also work on your meta tags. Here is an
article on how they work: http://www.richkahmer.com/meta-tags.html
