First of all, you need to understand that keywords are the foundation of SEO.

Right now, there are too many keywords on one page. I suggest you start off by optimising 1 keyword per page.

And did you come up with those keywords randomly or actually researched for effective keywords?

there's definitely room for improvement on the webpage design. It looks like it's from a template, which is not the best for branding purposes. The design and layout of a page will affect your conversion. If your website doesn't convert, there's no point driving traffic to it.

When someone visit your page, is it easy and fast for them to find out exactly what your page is about? You really need to make things really easy and clear for your visitors.

3. Article submission
4. Forum Posting with a signature to your site
5. Directory submission
6. Tell everyone with whom you communicate
7. Post ads to free advertising website
8. Blogging and Blogging comments
9. Social Bookmarking/networking sites, such as StumbleUpon, Digg, etc
10. Paid advertising
11. Contests, giveaways, etc
12. Business Cards
13. Trading Links with affirlates or related businesses to build Pagerank

Also in addition to these you can also add a Stat counter on your page to find statical data about your website including where your users are coming for and what keywords they use to get to your site etc.

The Free stat counters i recommend is Google Analytics, StatCounter, OneStatFree

Hope you find it useful!

1. Write something great about your niche and email other bloggers to let them know – there’s a good chance they’ll link to you

2. Have a signature link in forums that points to your site

3. Post links to your pages to social bookmarking sites.

4. Leave comments on other people’s blogs and link back to your site (tip: look in the digg upcoming section for blog posts about to get a lot of traffic).

5. Have the opposite opinion on everyone else on a popular topic, providing you can justify it. Everyone will get annoyed and link to you saying your wrong

6. Answer questions on Yahoo Answers - quote your website as the source.

7. Post in Yahoo and Google Groups with a link to your site in your signature

8. Make a 404 page that redirects to your homepage – no point losing visitors

Asked so many times that it should not be answered anymore, people will use the search option, but then again another backlink for answering, tyvm.
plus people are just putting down answers others put there before, as if they really know what works. Just go to google and see what they they say about it as they believe they own the internet, yet complain about it being a cesspool.:

Besides the great technical tips above, dont forget to include networking as an essential promotional tool. You essentially become your product and need to always be in a position to pitch it.

Best of luck out there!
