In my article, How to Make the Most of Your Website, I have a section called:
How serious are you about promoting your work?
Here is a list of my recommendations.
The most important being:
Use every setting possible to publicize your website.
* Post on online sites
Find other websites to link to yours (and link theirs to yours)* Sign off everything with your website
Post your website on blogs and online groups
Start your own blog, and link to other like-minded blogs
Leave messages with comments and your services (subtly) on online boards
Send out your website on E-news letters
Find commercial websites that can advertise your site (usually for a small fee)
On your business card* Tell people your website address
On your brochures
On any article or piece of writing
Try to make your website easy to remember. This could be through a short address, a meaningful address (i.e. it spells out your company name clearly) or other ways to make your contact remember your website.* Put your website in visible places
Just saying your website address can trigger someone to look it up later
On t-shirts* Make sure that search engines like google can easily find your website.
On paintings or craft work
On cars
On carry-on bags
On other merchandise
