This article is fluff, it says nothing beyond "submit to app directories", which is an unsustainable and small source of traffic. Getting 1000 visitors is trivially easy. Write a single blog post, social bookmark it, do some very simple linkbuilding and in a month you'll have those 1000 visitors. If you don't like that, I can do a media buy and get you 1000 visitors for about $2 right now. They probably won't convert, though. If you want to scale up and get traffic though, manually submitting to directories brings very low ROI on your time. You'll have to do some serious SEO/content, quality PR, or build out a large PPC campaign. An article about how to get the first 1000 signups would be much more useful.
