    well though I am a newbie but still you can contact admins of bigger sites like sify/hindu or may be yahoo india and can advertise there. Ofcourse keep the intended audience in mind. You dont' want to waste your money on unfocussed areas.

    well, to get big in a certain domain, you have to make sure that the domain is big itself. I wouldn't go an industry where there isn't any money to be made, that's plain simple. If you know where you're going, and you know there's money, then your steps will be great. Make sure to make a bit of hype about your product to get some interest out of future visitors.

    I wish you the best of luck, but, I would be very careful. Spending a lot of money on marketing before you even know if there's a market is very dangerous. Plus, in a press release, you want to talk about past successes.
