i created a website how can i promote it?

Well I am not going into details here but I'll give you a head start and then you can do your own research ...

There are many traffic sources a website can get, here are some of them:
1. Search Engines.
2. Social Media.
3. Referral.

And more, but these are the main sources for free traffic.

1. Search Engine Optimization or SEO. This is where most bloggers and website owners get their most traffic. It is basically Optimizing your website for search engines like Google, Yahoo and Bing. And there are two types of SEO ...
A. On-Page
B. Off-Page.

Search for SEO and learn more about it.

2. Social Media is where you get traffic from websites like Facebook, Twitter and much more. All you have to do is create an account with these websites and promote them. When you reach thousands of fans you can expect traffic from these stats.

3. Referral traffic is the traffic you get from links from another website.

To get an overview of how it looks like, visit Flippa.com and search through website to get stats of a real website.

Now there are other types of sources. Like PPC or Pay Per Click. But these are expensive.

Hope that helps

You need to get some SEO course I guess for that and follow some step by step plan.

What I highly recommend you to do is invest in your internet marketing education.

There is a lot of knowledge to learn here!

Some of the most effective internet marketing strategies are; content marketing, social media marketing, video marketing, forum marketing, blogging, SEO, guest blogging, blog commenting, file-sharing marketing, and attraction marketing.

What you should do is learn more about each internet marketing strategy and the create your own step by step blue print to follow on a daily basis.

You see, when it comes to building traffic flow to a website online, it is all about consistency. Because it is a process.

If you want very fast traffic - you will need for pay for it.

Free traffic takes time and it is a process. And it also takes a lot of time and effort.

When it comes to traffic online, you can either pay for it with money or with time and effort.

I hope this helps ya!

Keep up the great work!

Pay for it. Paid advertising when done right and targeted is always a great strategy. Assuming that the demand in your niche actually exists - obviously. Never try to create a niche. Just go into a small untapped one.

Just old good advice - be useful or/and entertaining stuff on your site, additional blog or forums.

Most of traffic that comes to popular sites come from Google. And for that you need good content that will help people solve their problems or entertain.

That's the simple but the most important stuff. Everythign else is just polishing this basic idea or illusions.
