Use an affiliate program to create incentives for your own customers to sell/refer your product for you.

This will: 1) allow you to set a price for new customer signups. 2) likely get free advertising on blogs of some of your users.

Shameless plug: ping me for an invite code for our custom, white labeled affiliate software.

PR / Advertising: A great free resource is HARO (helpareporter.com). Signup and receive mailings on reporters looking for stories, you can get great, free PR from them.

Also, signup your company in directories and comment on blogs. There are a bunch of directories (crunchbase, big startups, etc..) these are potentially valuable backlinks and will bring users to your site and increase your SEO.

Good Luck!

HARO sounds good! I'll take a look into that.

Thanks for all suggestions
