I used a simple video clip I had taken with my mobile phone. Added some text and stuck it onto YouTube.

Got a few hits.

And cost ZERO

Marketing to social network sites really depend on what you are trying to market. There is no one solution that is better than another.

Each social media channel is different and has a different culture. If you just go in there all guns blazing you'll get nowhere. For example, a tech product you could probably get onto the popular pages of Digg/Del.icio.us (provided you have an interesting twist on a story). But if you try to promote the same thing on another site you'll get nowhere.

If you know how to target each audience you'll end up with a minimum of 40k unique visitors for each piece of content you produce. It's not difficult you just need to know what each community is interested in and become a member of that community before you try to promote too heavily.

I'd like to add our site at wecando.biz.

Early days - it went live 2 weeks ago in test mode ahead of a formal launch next month - but we have big ambitions.

Best regards

IH

Social Bookmarking,article submission,forum posting and blog commenting are very helpful to get high traffic to your site. By Creating web 2.0 sites like squidoo,hubpages,wetpaint,xanga,wordpress with different articles title must be related to keyword and url also associated with the keyword then it pushes lot of traffic to your site.

Digg and stumbleupon are really effective social bookmark sites... You can get traffic for your site when you submit articles/stories....

I think Facebook is good for stuff like that - could people post tehir experiences of promotion they have carried out. I have site, www.laughingdeals.com that I have put as a group on facebook and will be offering some great incentives. It would be goo to share some examples of stuff others have used.
