I personally do a lot of blog commenting and forum posting.

i think social bookmarking can used to generate traffic as well
but i think for that we need to make a group of online friends and bookmark each others links so that they atleast get a start
its bad too see just 1 digg for a site or something like that

[Lukehluke]

Yeah thats the problem with sites like Digg, no-one has enough traffic to get lots of diggs.

[niks00789]

ya but i guess if we make an online group and digg each others articles or sites then it can prove worth
coz i think our site has better quality content than many others who are getting diggs
i havent really gone in details of this social bookmarking thing but once i do i think i will see to it that my site gets on top on these sites

From your list, I think directory submission won't do much work these days for traffic but they are fine just for getting backlinks.

I don't think many people still do directory submission any more.

i still do directory submissions, and still got the feeling they help good!

[niks00789]

i feel that directory submissions are good for creating backlinks but the traffic it sends will mostly consist of other webmasters who submit their sites coz mostly webmasters only visit such directories so they only search for things and thus they constitute the traffic :P

Article submission is a good method of getting back links. I do not know whether back link system is an effective system of advertising.
