Source where I can get Referral Traffic for my website

My website's traffic is not all that impressive and I want to try out referral traffic sources so I don’t have to depend solely on search engines. Can any experts or someone please share good sources to get referral traffic?

Tip 1 - Forum discussion boards

Published:  | Submitted by 3ak | permalink

Forum is a place where people connect about a particular topic, that gives you a great opportunity to be very sly and throw in your website, remember the moment you come across spammy 1) you will probably be banned by the forum admin 2) nobody will click

For example:

You own a website called "TipsPit.com"

Forum post: "Please give me tips on my first date tomorrow"

Your answer: The best answer I can give you is to "be yourself" because thats what you can do best, be natural otherwise you will come across unconfident because you're trying to be something you're not - if someone doesn't like you for you then there is no future. By the way for next time if you want some tips theres a pretty handy side called tipspit.com that I use when I need tips particularly submit a topic and handy tips is all you will get on there. Good luck!

Tip 2 - Youtube

Youtube is a great source of referral traffic if you have videos which relate to your website. For instance if your website is about food, you can post food videos on youtube and link them to your post as well. A lot of people drive traffic like this from youtube to their own websites.
