I've looked at SEO, trading links, leaving comments, forums and discussion groups, social media sites and more, and while they do all bring in traffic in there own right, the one thing that brings in more traffic than anything else is the offer of something for free.
The key is that "the something" you offer has to be of value to others.
Based on this, on my main site, Money Making Guide (http://www.moneymakingguide.co.uk), i decided to build a library of Free money making ebooks.
I scoured Forums, blog posts, and other giveaways to put together as many useful free ebooks as i possibly could and put them all in one place MMG's Massive Ebook Giveaway.
I did think about making this giveaway only available to those that signup, but again this often puts people off, so I decided against it this time.
Once I'd completed the page, I did use some of the techniques above to spread the word so to speak, but the increase in traffic I got was astounding.
Prior to the giveaway I was only picking up a small amount of traffic, and alongside that only small commissions.
My traffic suddenly increased tenfold, and because of this, so did my commisions. I'd been using products such as clickbank for a while with no luck at all, now because of the increased interest in my site, and the inclusion of a few products to purchase among the freebies, my clickbank commissions have started to increase as well.
I never actually thought, that by offering something that you can get in so many places on so many websites would have such an impact on my earnings potential.
Written your own Ebook? Include in it my next Giveaway for FREE !!
Due to the success of this, I am now planning on a 2nd giveaway. I have already put together a list of 50 + ebooks to add to the 50 i already had, as well as items such as free software, free squeeze pages, free PRL articles and so much more.
One thing I am also doing is offering the chance for anybody who has written there own ebook to have it included in the giveaway so they can benefit from the traffic potential that this giveaway will create.
All I'm asking in return is for a link to the giveaway on your site and a blog post about it.
If this interests you, leave a comment below and I'll contact you.
To our success.

Hey man you came on my Site and left the Comment above.
Dude, this is blatant Spamming and is unacceptable. In all due respect this gives Internet Marketing a terribly bad name.
Consequently, you left me with no alternative as I reported you to the Google Spamming Department along with a verified screen shot of what you did.
And I just received back a memo from them just 30 minutes ago . They have informed me that a temporary freeze on your Blogger Account will be enforced and effective in the next 48 hrs. As they will do a standard review after this to see if permanent suspension will be implemented.
Good Luck !!
Well thanks for the reply. I really didnt contact Google. I was just really upset and I am glad that you do understand that it wasnt the right thing to do.
So really no big deal as long as you see the mistake.
BTW, And I do like your Websites. And dont worry Google is not gonna do anything :)
Hi, thanks for the great idea to get traffic.
