[HELP] getting real visitors/users for startup webapp

Hellooooo BHW!

First of all ... this may be not the right subforum but I couldn't find one which suited better than that one! ... so if there is one, I kindly ask a mod to move this thread! thx!

Some time ago I launched a startup webapp with a friend!
We were already writing emails to startup blogs n stuff but because of the sheer amount of startups comin out of nowhere every day and therefore the huge amount of PR emails those blogs receive every day we got ignored by almost all of them.

So I would like to ask you guys for tips on how to get people onto our page and try out our service!

I hope you can help!

Again:
We are NOT looking for some standard "not-really-human" traffic to boost seo rankings for a micro-niche page or anything like that,
we are looking for tips and hints on how to get real people interested in our startup!

Thx for you help in advance!

best regards
K

This is where you've lost 99% of your potential readers. Just saying

Buy 1000 giveaway items. Launch a social campaign to giveaway this item to the first 1000 who people use your service. With shipping and an average cost of 50 cents per item, this promo campaign might only cost $750, but will be amazing in getting traffic to your site. Lanyards, Bracelets, Stickers, and Pens work great for this! Everyone loves free things!
