I took a look at your website, and it looks cool :), I thought for a while about how you can get more visitors to your site, the problem you have is there is a lot of sites similiar to what you are doing, which will make it hard (but not impossible) to get new visitors.
A few things you can try to see if it makes any difference:
1: In your profile here, and on other forums you visit, it could be good to put a link to your site (or a small picture) in your signature, so on each post your site address is shown, you can do some cool things and support other stuff you like as well, check out Testmagics posts and my own in this thread, where the post has links at the bottom.
2: Submit your photos to sites like http://www.deviantart.com, it is a website with a very strong following and people will click through if they like your photos.
3: Go ahead and set up your Yahoo! and MSN groups, it is free and only takes a little while to start, I would recommend making some content special for this group as well as your website to keep everything fresh, and your visitors interested.
4: If it is commercial, consider hiring someone to promote your site for you (please don't choose someone who will spam on your behalf though :)). Many people can help you with this, I myself offer this service.
5: Setup or join a webring system covering sites like yours, or if one doesn't exist make a new one. These systems generate great traffic.
6: Make a screensaver or similiar toy (there are lots of free programs that will let you make one of these, check out http://www.tucows.com) and send it to your friends with a link attached to your website.
I hope you have success, your website and comments here have cheered me up. |

| Thanks SY, I really appreciate your time! I have tried all your options except for hiring a promoter (unfortunately in my case not commercial means also almost no budget...). I am waiting now to see results... BTW I have tried Google mico ads. It seems I can get 1,000 targeted hits with 50$, seems not bad to me. |
