Here is an excellent tip provided by Joshutex

Simple, yet effective steps can be taken to ensure that your site see's more visitors:

* Have an easy site name, and a solid site description
http://www.wetpaintcentral.com/page/Site+Name+and+Description

* The Promote my Wiki area is also a great place to go
http://www.wetpaintcentral.com/page/Wiki+Promote+Area

* Invite friends. Chances are, they'll invite their friends with the same passion as you, and then they'll invite their friends, etc..

* Exchange links with simular sites. If you have a passion, others share it. It’s the essence of Wetpaint Wikis.

* Build better page names and descriptions.

--and/or--
http://www.wetpaintcentral.com/page/Page+Description

* Link your own content. I mean internally link it. Once a new, interested person on your site see's one great page, chances are they are going to want to see similar pages. That's the beauty of linking

* Use social media tools like Facebook, Myspace, or Twitter to spread the word about your new site
http://www.facebook.com
--and/or--
http://www.myspace.com
--and/or--
http://www.twitter.com

*Get a good, easy to remember URL. If you have something like "csi.wetpaint.com" then it should be easy to remember. But if you have something like "csifansforever122.wetpaint.com" then you may want to try a custom url. Domains are getting cheaper, so start snagging!
