This is a hot item. We are asked this question often. To be honest, there is no absolute answer to this question. Traffic depends on more than one factor. The search engines have to have your site listed in their databases, you have to have links from other (related) websites pointing to your site, and so on.

But there is one thing that anyone can do.

Send out emails to your entire email distribution list and tell them about your site and why they should go there. Often a business has a lot of business cards collected from various networking and social meetings. Why not use that as your e-mail list?

We know it works. Just make that email interesting enough for the recipient to click the link to your website.

One important thing : If you get responses, FOLLOW UP on them. Quite often these responses get wasted by not answering them immediately!
