Personally, my company WEBGURU-CO.COM is works out of Mongolia. We are a startup company focusing on SEO web design, website redesign, etc. as well as SEO and internet marketing. We have been using seo as well as commenting and forum posts, but are looking to focus more and more on blogging with unique and/or useful content. I cannot quite tell you yet which steps have been useful as we have really just strated promoting recently. We have also been submitting to search engines and directories, but most of them seem quite a bit useless and spammy, so we kind of halted that exercise.
It's about Spreading Helpful and Self-Help Information

Information that is helpful especially around achieving goals on a budget is ideal. Also tips and tricks around self-help themes are great. What vehicile you use share that is up to you.
I've found that blog articles, webinars and targeted, permission-based email campaigns are probably some of the most effective internet marketing channels right now.
Having a tangible asset to view or download is helpful. The on-demand nature of the web and people blocking outbound marketing requires that end users have the flexibility to get to their info at their own time with minimal friction.
Of course you want to use social media to help spread your information around.
