I work on mainly one open source library on github. I made sure to submit it to npm and blogged on a big site (thinkmof like tutorial like site for devs) about it once. Other than that, because it's just a useful little module people have interest in, it gets downloaded and discussed naturally. Another little project I have is a bot for slack, this one was picked up randomly by a person on the internet who decided to do a better Readme.md version as a medium tutorial and got me traction...its pretty good for something this small and useful (I guess) If I were to make this worth marketing efforts, I would: - self promote in quora, stackoverflow - listen to relevant keywords in twitter and reply to those - launch it on HN as a ShowHN - find all relevant subreddits, contribute a little then self promote - give a talk at local meetup community or lightning talk about it. As you can see my suggestions, they match pretty much what you would do in non oss projects to get some traffic going Btw I loved this question
