So what are the options. There is no end to this list from starting at the various search engine advertising like Google Adwords, to writing articles and posting them on article directories to build links, to submitting website to directories, using social media like twitter, facebook, book marking websites ... the list goes on.

There are so many options each with it's own merits and disadvantages and each worthy of many articles on how best to use and benefit from each however bottom line the key thing you need is traffic and it fundamentally is about do you try and do the work to get the traffic or can you get someone else to create the traffic for you. This is not necessarily about outsourcing the work ... it's about in the first scenario you have to spend effort, money, time, resources to create the links, adverts, listings in a multitude of websites to get the exposure you need. The second option is somehow getting the benefit of someone else spending alot more money, effort and time to advertise and get traffic and you benefit from that effort.
