Consider targeting your local market focusing on local directories, search engine, classified sites etc preferably with a .co.uk tld domain name.

if you can put a little $$ in it each month. Try google and others paid to click advertising with local area keywords.

UK Consumer Email List Drops

I would suggest using a geo-targeted UK consumer email list. Especially if you have a direct response type of product or website. If you haven't done this type of marketing before, I would recommend using proven agency's in this market such as Viralytics Media, Intercept Interactive or Brulent Media. They all are about the same in terms of effectiveness.

Best of Luck!!

Best way is word of mouth! Its cheap and powerful. make sure this is done locally and continue to the rest of what everyone else mentioned after. Try flyers, business cards, etc. Sure, its old school advertising but it works and is a great starting point for building and moving forward. These things take time to do right.

I would life to suggest you to go for PPC initially, and target geographic and demographically. and meanwhile go for SEO too. once you start getting traffic from free listing you can stop ppc campaign.
