Traffic advice for a site

I've been part of another marketing forum for the past year and for the past few months I have been getting (what seems like) bogus answers and advice for campaigning and advertising my niche sites. And I used one trick from this forum and it that took me 5 minutes and it helped ten times better than anything my old forum submitted.

I'm looking for some more advice though. I have a niche site called HealthyChestMelons.com, based off breast cancer/enhancement information and I want to generate more traffic in hopes of advertising my adsense to viewers a lot better.

Could I get a couple pointers?

    Good point, but I actually got the idea for the sites name from a handful of women from the breastcancer.org forum. They liked that it took the seriousness away from the fact of the matter.

    Have you tried free press releases? Sites like prlog.org and i-newswire.com work great for ranking for some competitive terms

      The name of your site is somewhat unique and if you are happy with it and if you got advice from other women about it, then that's all that matters..

      You have taken an important step towards driving traffic to your site..and that is by posting on this forum..surely that will drive traffic to your site..I didn't know your site until I read your post...now I know it..see..it works..

      Secondly create blog/s..add good quality article contents, include backlinks to your main site and see your traffic increase..

      If you need quality article contents for your blog, let me know..

      Cheers

      Thanks for that, I'm looking into it now. Sounds like a good bet.

    Honestly, promoting health site is difficult to handle because traffic really is a problem. I agree on what yokon had said: your url sound a little bit offensive for others. Yes, you got the idea of your url in a forum but that doesn't mean that sounds great to all women. Keyword plays a vital role here. It must be attractive not just to women but to men as well. I suggest you do an intensive research again to find the most perfect keyword for this site and use it as the anchor text as you build links. Also, the keyword should have high monthly searches to help your site drive more traffic.

    It's a tough call. I would suggest finding forums about breast cancer and post quality information - and if they liked it, put your website in your signature. It won't get a lot of traffic, but it will get quality traffic.

      Yeah, as a woman, I'm not offended by the name but I don't particularly like it. But then I'm not dealing with cancer either.

    You guys sound right though, maybe the title is a bit offensive if I'm marketing towards women in which I should since my adsense does. I'll go about changing it to something a bit more...healthier and less...sexy? haha

    Yes you have to change your title... Then if you can participate on health forums much better. Comments on blogs that are related to your site, high PR and do follow much better. Try to promote your site to Facebook and Twitter. It can help your site to generate traffic coming from those social networking sites.
