It’s THE question bloggers and web site owners must ask themselves on a regular basis: What are you doing today (every day!) to drive traffic to your web site? Performancing.com has a new post on just this goal, with 12 tips to increase inbound links to your site.

To keep the Babes coming to my site, ChronicBabe, I do these things regularly (i.e. at least once every other week, if not more often):

• send out an enewsletter (every other week) with incentive to visit the site
• comment on other people’s blogs
• participate in blog carnivals
• get to know my fellow bloggers and build reciprocal relationships with them
• guest blog at my favorite sites
• hand out my business card or fliers to everyone I meet
• take steps to grow your enewsletter list (this Alexandria Brown article is a great place to start for ideas)
• use my email signature to promote my site
• create tons of good content on my site so other site owners can’t resist linking to me
• update my content almost every day, then use Ping-O-Matic to spread the word
• “speak” at webinars
• promote others’ enewsletters (and they promote mine to their readers)
• hold contests and give-aways
• invite big-name guests to write a post at my site (their followers will come to me for at least that day)
• blab all about town about my project to anyone who will listen

These are just the actions I can think of in five minutes to write this post. If I spent an hour on it, the list would go on forever - but this is a good idea of where to start promoting your site. So…what did I leave off the list? How do you promote your site?
