I have a new marketing technique.

I am a webmaster, SEO, programmer and designer myself. I am a full time webmaster but still I do believe that the marketing of my sites don't depend on the technical side of the sites. It rather depends on social side too.

The sites that had been receiving good traffic are the sites that I have made efforts to make it more cool and user friendly. More attractive and informational for users rather then search engines. Users don't care much if your title is SEO optimized or not. But if they like the site they do tell others that the so and so site really rocks. Yes geeks do talk sometimes with other geeks. As I myself only have one topic to discuss whenever I go out with my friends and that is Internet.

I am not saying that just depend on the above mentioned technique. But it is a very major point that many of the website owners would like to try it out themselves.

yes...that is very true and that is what search engines have always stressed on, to make site for users and not for search engines!!

And like nameslot said you can have a "tell a friend about us" like also on your website! it sounds simple but it is quite effective!!

Yes, it is prudent to have a "Tell A Friend About This Article" feature on a website.

These links get exchanged and used many times when an article achieves popularity as a meme or recurring theme on the Internet. It is similar to friends showing each other funny news articles or strange news articles; those articles, on a news or media website, tend to get the most views.

Another nice technique I am using right now is to submit RSS feeds to the the RSS directories on the internet.

This is only possible if you have RSS feeds for your site. But if you are running a dynamic site then you can easily use some existing code to generate the RSS feeds for your site's content. It does helps a lot to get better SERP's as some of this RSS directories displays the feeds on their pages and they are highly ranked in the search engines.

Could you share what RSS directories that worked for you?

Yes here is the thread for it. Getting deeplinks

Thanks.
