Traffic is one of the most challenging parts for everyone. I have several friends just starting out and I always tell them to do a little bit everyday because those little things you do today, build up your traffic for the long run. Some of those things include...
1) Blogging (or adding
some content to your site each day)
2) Posting answers on Yahoo Answers (choose questions in your niche)
3) Find forums related to your niche and offer useful, relevant advice and use your sig
4) Comment on other people's blogs related to your theme
5) Go to AdWords or Yahoo Search and bid on really cheap keywords in your niche (if you can afford it)
6) Be sure your blog and/or site has a sitemap and submit it to the popular engines so they are aware of your updates
These are just a few things you can do on an ongoing basis to help build up your traffic over time.
Of course, in the end, good content is what rules. You could do all the above and have a sub par site or a site that doesn't offer anything unique or useful and see minimal results. So your first order of business is to really nail down who your target audience is and write to target their needs.
