Q. How do ordinary people find out about ordinary nifty new sites on the
internet

A. By:

- word of mouth

- banner ads

- news stories

- they search on google

- they browse directories like dmoz.org and its derivatives, or yahoo

- they opt in to announce lists

- spam, but mostly this gets ignored


So enhancements possible already to help "spread the word":

- tell aquaintances about it, get them to tell their aquaintances

- set up mutual banner ad rotation servers

- talk to journalists

- volunteer to be a dmoz.org editor for an "e-gold sites" node, then
tell people about the page and get them to submit their pages for
listing

- set up an "e-gold spam" list, and ask people to join it from your
sites

That's a good start, no? Then maybe later you can talk e-gold into
putting a "subscribe me to the e-gold spam list" button, or at least
listing it on their own mini directory.
