When you are saying traffic you need to understand what kind of traffic you mean.
You can go and buy so called "traffic" from any porn site. They will gladly send you 10 thousands visitors a day.
You will have traffic. But what kind of traffic. Those "horny" people will come to your site and close the browser next second.
Will it do any good?
The same here. You just advertised on this board your website. What is the purpose? Do you think any webmaster will go to your website looking for something?
You've got to identify people you want to target and then start promoting among them.
Look at the craigslist.org . When i needed someone for temporary remote job i went there and posted the ad (for free by the way) Because i knew i would get a response. I would never go to your site because i know it will be waste of my time.
Without people posting ads you will not have people looking.
Without people looking you will not have people posting.
Vicious circle.

For starter you might want to start copying Ads from somewere just to fill your site. Then, when ocasional stranger looking for something would come accross your site he might use one of the ads you have. So next time when he will want to post his own ad he would come to your site.
It's just a one way, But i can assure you anyway you choose it will require a lot of work. And the best thing for now is to forget about money.
It's hard to start a free community. But if you are asking money for it then it's tens time harder.
--------------------------------------------
Sorry, may be i am too pessimistic about your site but i think i am pretty realistic. Hope some other people at this forum have more suggestions.
PS: Try to learn from success. Find some successfull site/business in that niche you are planning to make money in and try to learn what has brouhgt that success.
