Outside of the long term traffic concepts (that need to be done) like SEO, product development, joint ventures or affiliate programs, here are a few quick ideas:

Network within Social Communities. This includes posting and interacting with other people on relevant forums, social networks like Facebook, news sites like Digg/Reddit as well as blog sites like Blogcatalog or MyBloglog.

Create Weekend Link Bait. Social news sites usually get less news during the weekend, and it is likely that your bait will be more successful during this time.

Comment on Blogs. Focus on those with more traffic and try to be the first few to leave a comment. Make your comment relevant and you’re likely to receive some visitors from others who visit the same blog.

Pitch Your Website. Write an email to bloggers within your niche to promote your website, business or best article for last week. Give away a product or offer premium access for selected publishers in return for a mention.

Use Paid Advertising. This involves spending money on paid advertising in order to get traffic to your website. Pay per click advertising and social media advertising on sites like StumbleUpon, Facebook and AdWords can quickly bring in targeted traffic.

There are numerous things that can be done to build traffic in the short-term, but this will give you a good start.

Internet Marketing is the practice of growing website traffic and brand awareness through a variety of methods, including Search Engine Optimization, advertising, email campaigns and more.
