Thanks in advance Slade.

Common promotion techniques include:
provide good, useful, unique, constantly updated content, and lots of it.
try to make every single visitor a satisfied visitor. even if they don't buy from you.
word of mouth. word of mouth. WORD OF MOUTH!
network with other website owners.
do link swaps with high PR sites.
do even more link swaps.
participate in lots of forums and advertise your site in your signature.
participate in webmaster promotion and seo forums such as this one.
be sure to get listed in Yahoo! and the DMOZ directory.
use static links that end in .htm or .html.
use mod_rewrite to "cover-up" your dynamic pages.
choose a few keywords you wish to target and use them a lot throughout your site.
use a very clear, intuitive, consistant navigation scheme.
I'll think of more stuff, don't worry

mod_rewrite... how do I do that? Also, I am designing my site in asp .net, I notice on these forums you've used php, is it possible for me to make "Test.aspx" appear as "Test.Html" but still remain an aspx page? Or is that the function of mod_rewrite?

That is the function of mod_rewrite. For example, we use it here to replace the URL:
http://www.daniweb.com/techtalkforum...read.php?t=100
with
http://www.daniweb.com/techtalkforums/thread100.html
There are soooo many other threads here with how to use mod_rewrite, so do a search. Unfortunately, I don't believe it works on Windows hosts, only Linux. However, I have heard there is a Windows alternative to mod_rewrite though I am not exactly sure what it is. So there might be luck for ya still.

Great post cscgal , Ive been watching a lot of SEO tutorials and your right on the money..
"do link swaps with high PR sites" --- link with high PR sites that are relevant with what your sites content is..
Linking to anyone and everyone can do harm to your sites rank or relevantsy in google..so try to avoid the links that are off topic to your site Slade.
Please if I am wrong about this somebody slap me its only what I have been learning ...
And as we all learn I think it would be helpful if we keep posting more about this...

I think PR0 site will have no effect on your site, it will most likely to be neglected, but obviously if your all backlinks are from PR0, it will have bad effect to your PR.

It wont affect your PR as u are not linking to that site.
Speaking about the promotion techniques....cscgal has covered everything. I do suggest blogging, article submission which could enhance the traffic.
