Here are some ways to drive traffic to your website
- PPC (like google adwords, but there are lots of other PPC services) - paid traffic
- Video Marketing (especially via YouTube)
- here at Yahoo! Answers
- do SEO
- submit articles about your forum
- Squidoo and Hubpages
- Blog commenting
- Forum posting
- Craigslist
- email marketing
- Ad Swaps / Solo Ads - paid traffic
Spend money on paid advertising, oods are it would be a money loser but it's quick and easy.
The slow tedious method is getting free search engine traffic using SEO techniques, short of actually creating the best site in your field that outright deserves top rating, getting some links that looks like popularity votes help a site's search results position. Get some SEO guides.

Hello Dude!!
I would like to inform you that if you want to advertise a website or blog then do free classified ads. Classified ads are a great way to list items, services without creating an auction style or fixed price listing. For example: locanto[dot]com, htclassifieds[dot]com etc.
you can get lots of traffic from Forums
