The search engines are going to be the main place
that you get randon traffic from so you can't be in enough search engines,
so make more traffic than others but all hits coming to your website add
up. Make sure that you have developed a good list of relevant key words
for your site and put them on the front page and/or in the meta tags which
includes the various items that you have, the style, your physical location
and any other words that people might use to search for pages like yours.
there are a lot of people in the world and they don't
all speak English and so they search for stuff in their own language right?
So for the search engines that are from other languages like French or
Spanish or Italian or German, you should run your words through a translator
like babelfish

Search Engines
In order for your site to get
any traffic it has to be listed in places where people who are looking
for something like you have look for it and that is going to be places
like search engines and business lists. The following are, as far as I
can tell, among the most used.
