Start walking. You need to get some viral marketing growing and that doesn't take much. So walk around and tell people about the film and perhaps offer a free screening if they tell 10 friends about it.

My first question is what kind of movie is it? A short? A feature?
Second question is what is your goal? Why did you make the movie? To show it as an example of what you can do? To sell it? To use it to sell a larger feature? See, marketing is driven by the purpose. You could market it all day on YouTube, but if your goal is to get an Agent or a Studio interested in you, you're not focusing your efforts in the correct place. If you're interested in getting some serious attention, if your movie is good enough (high quality, entertaining, etc.), then consider submitting it to some of the major film festivals. For a list of festivals worldwide, visit http://www.whatireallywanttodo.com and click on the "Festivals" link at the top. If your movie is a feature (at least 90 minutes) and is up to the required technical specs, consider submitting it to the American Film Market and the Cannes Film Market (not the Festival!). You'll find links to those also on the "Festivals" page, but scroll way down toward the bottom. So, if you can provide more information about what your movie is and what your goal is with it, then we can give you some more specific advice. Good luck!
