Hey,

Kind of like a portfolio site, am I right?

Advertise, advertise and advertise.

maybe put out a blog updating your customers or your web sites visitors.
socialize via bookmarks, directories, blogs, forums, classified ad sites

Nice design ..coming back @ topic you have to promote it as much as you can and sometimes people offering their services don't contain content at all but still they have a great website

for you adwords is the answer not google search engine for traffic

Good suggestions. I also suggest that you use social media marketing like myspace and facebook to drive traffic.

since you are good with design maybe upload some slides in youtube and put in your url at the side ...

also ppc would be a good way for you if you know how to do it and have the budget.

Ok one thing I will suggest is get that flash site off and put something that loads fast for all users. Not that I have any problem with loading the site as I am running a T1 here. But I can tell you that a lot of users can't access that site. Second, flash is not very SEO Friendly! I suggest you use CSS / Ajax or CSS / JS to make the site looks a bit flashy but not entirely flash. Maybe use flash for just showing your work. Trust me you will get much better results. And if your site is very good looking you can enter web design galleries. I made a list of galleries on my blog. I stay updated with those galleries as I am the CEO of a Web Design Firm. I check a lot of free lancers with very good talent get mentioned in these galleries. I have been listed in a few as well. These bring you a lot of traffic and give you much exposure / credibility. Next thing what you can do is release some free themes and get some exposure. Do some free designs and get free exposure via backlink. Advertise locally (that is what we do best). Use Social Media to advertise. PPC on Social Media Networks. These are just a few advices for ya
