One of the best ways to market a new website is to drive traffic to the site. Visit http://dimanomarketing.wordpress.com/2006/12/20/71-good-ways-to-build-links/ for a list of 71 free ways to to drive traffic to your new site.

Below are the frist 14 strategies....
1. Build a “101 list”. These get Dugg all the time, and often become “authority documents”. People can’t resist linking to these (hint, hint).
2. Create 10 easy tips to help you [insert topic here] articles. Again, these are exceptionally easy to link to.
3. Create extensive resource lists for a specific topic (see Mr Ploppy for inspiration).
4. Create a list of the top 10 myths for a specific category.
5. Create a list of gurus/experts. If you impress the people listed well enough, or find a way to make your project look somewhat official, the gurus may end up linking to your site or saying thanks. (Sometimes flattery is the easiest way to strike up a good relationship with an “authority”.)
6. Make your content easy to understand so many people can understand and spread your message. (It’s an accessibility thing.)
7. Put some effort in to minimize grammatical or spelling errors, especially if you need authoritative people like librarians to link to your site.
8. Have an easily accessible privacy policy and about section so your site seems more trustworthy. Including a picture of yourself may also help build your authority.
9. Buy relevant traffic with a pay per click campaign. Relevant traffic will get your site more visitors and brand exposure. When people come to your site, regardless of the channel in which they found it, there is a possibility that they will link to you.
10. Syndicate an article at EzineArticles, GoArticles, iSnare, etc. The great thing about good article sites is that their article pages actually rank highly and send highly qualified traffic.
11. Submit an article to industry news site. Have an SEO site? Write an article and submit to WebProNews. Have a site about BLANK? Submit to BLANKinformationalsite.com.
12. Syndicate a press release. Take the time to make it GOOD (compelling, newsworthy). Email it to some handpicked journalists and bloggers. Personalize the email message. For good measure, submit it to PRWeb, PRLeap, etc.
13. Track who picks up your articles or press releases. Offer them exclusive news or content.
14. Trade articles with other webmasters.

Good luck. -Dimano Marketing

Answer 2

There are dozens of ways to get a good return on a CPM rate, but the best way to effectively market something online is to build a community around a brand image, and support a free service with your community's effect on your sales.

I suggest you evaluate the primary causes of your target customers, and provide something that they need, and which directly ties to your sale items. As a first and open thought, if you're selling photo paper and digital media accessories, I would suggest you provide/develop a free service which allows professional photographers and artists to sell and advertise their services better. Make a second section for offices which need to learn how to optimize and evaluate office printing solutions.

Good Luck.

You could try sponsored links on search engines. It's targeted - your ads only appear to people searching for the kind of products you supply. It's trusted - people trust search engines. It's prominent advertising. And it's descriptive as search engines allow a brief decsription within your ad.

Sign up for your own accounts with search engines and manage it yourself, or get an agency such as Easylistings to manage your advertising to make things simple: http://www.easylistingsltd.co.uk
