how can i increase sales and drive traffic to my new website?

Question by ✔✪ Abu Haarun Hussein ✪✔: how can i increase sales and drive traffic to my new website?
Hi, I have recently completed an online store for selling outer-space collectibles for space-enthusiasts. It is called “Space Mugs!” at http://www.cafepress.com/SpaceMugs

I chose a catchy title, put together some interesting products, added tags, keywords, and descriptions for my products for search engine optimization. I also sent a few emails to friends. I also added a script that tracks user behavior on my site.

Is there anything else I can or should do? My budget is extremely limited. Or should I just wait and see what happens?

Thank you

You can write articles about your products and submit them to hubpages, ezine articles, and squidoo lens. You could also try pay per click from google, yahoo, and miva till you start getting regular customers then branch out to other means of traffic sources like pyrabang. Press releases are also another good source for building traffic to your site. Social bookmarking is good for getting targeted traffic to your site for that I use onlywire. It allows you to submit to bookmarking sites like twitter,stubleupon, reddit, and dig. All of which can get you good amounts of traffic. You also need to make sure to get your products and pages indexed with google and yahoo. I can tell you thousands of ways to get traffic to your site. Most of my ideas are posted in my seo section on my main blog at massivemarketers. I only posted the one main page because you can find almost evertying from there. Good luck to you and your website.
