A bit of a cliche answer, but I'll still go with this: depends on the target audience. Find out who can most benefit our of your product? Developers? Sales? Marketing? General netizen?

Next, figure out where they spend their time on. For eg: to target devs, post on communities like HN (as Show HN). Reach out to community driven blogs and be an author subtly marketing the product. In fact, an interesting story on what you went through during the product building phase, that challenges you solved is exciting enough to intrigue a developer.

General netizen? Share on platforms like reddit (specific subreddit), twitter (would be good if one of your users which high reach can volunteer for this).

Is it a B2B product? Offer the product at a discounted rate to initial users and in return, you can ask for promotion through their site/social media (a bit like testimonials). For eg: I got to know about mixpanel by seeing the badge on the footer of certain website I used.

I read this again now, and I see way too many typos, can't edit it anymore though. Please excuse the messed up grammar and totally unrelated words in between.
