Welcome to my world my friend.
A few things I've learned in the short few months hackerjobs.co.uk has been live:
* Blog often
* Twitter is your new best friend
* Don't be afraid to email/call people your target market if you see them advertising on other sites
* Free job listings for a limited time is a brilliant way of attracting advertisers
* Have stats at hand at all times. Daily uniques, time on site, etc.
* Use case studies. Got a decent company advertising on your site? Tell the competition.
* Are you allowing recruiters to use your site? If so, email individual recruiters to let them know. Recruiters go crazy for new job sites that may give them an edge in the market.
* Finally, and this is a big one, when posting questions like this on HN, include a link. Hacker News is a massive source of traffic.
As others have mentioned, the biggest challenge is differentiating yourself from other job boards.
