How can I get more traffic?

I'm currently receiving a nice amount of traffic for my movies website from various sources including social bookmarking, forum posting, search engines and yahoo answers. But obviously, I want more! Is there anything I've missed? Any suggestions?

    From your few amount of posts, I see that you are new to WF - so first, welcome. Since "traffic" is covered thousands of times on WF it might be a good idea to spend some time searching & reading. If you take the time, I am willing to bet that you could come up with hundreds ideas in a very short time period.

    Why not take advantage of youtube since it is a channel that plays videos 24 hours a day, you could also setup some ppc campaigns if you understand how they work. Adding a blog to your site can also pull you lots of traffic as well, just read this forum and its posts for more ideas.

    Cheers,

    Search around the forum for details, but you can get a traffic increase by a lot of things, including, but not limited to:

    More backlinks
    Youtube video
    Writing and submitting articles
    Deploy RSS from your site
    Pay per click
    Viral - write a free report
    Send valuable information and deals to your list
    Link bait for a quick traffic burst
    Post in related forums with your site/offer in your sig

    I still like these posts as often as they come up.

    But my big one that I like lately is just writing new content to important keywords and then point articles to those non-money pages for the backlinks.

    Video marketing & social bookmarking on massive scale will work best for your movies niche, IMHO.

    Yes, just be excellent and keep your positive attitude and the rest will follow. But, if you want a little boost, incentivize your current visitors, somehow, to refer you to their friends.

    Like make a big-ass "Share With Your Friends" button at the bottom of whatever they're reading. Worry about the sales and revenue later once you hit a good stride.

    Best wishes,
    Eric

        Get the right title for video and upload to YouTube. It can give you incredible traffic. You can learn some tricks to optimize your video in Youtube to draw huge traffic.

        Not forgetting that writing good articles and submitting them to article directories will create a long term success for good flow of traffic. It is always viral with articles. And you can also compiled them as ebooks and distribute them. As long as your articles are of value, it will create a viral traffic.

    You can pay for traffic too.

    Most places will charge say $5 for 1000 bulk visitors: that is traffic from any where in the world, then you can get more specific traffic by paying extra.

    I think you are already using many best methods of traffic generation.
    Now you just need to improve on what you already doing:

    Like you said , Search Engines and Yahoo Answers... I think both if used properly can be
    enough for your traffic needs. If you are ranking for one keyword, try to rank for another
    keyword in that category....if you are responding to 5 questions a day at Yahoo Answers,
    you may try to answer to more...i mean you have already touched best traffic methods
    you need to drive traffic , now just scale them up!
