Best of luck, Tomas!
In case it helps, I just blogged about the places I know to share a new RPG. Perhaps these places will be of help to you. If you know of others, please let me know!

Tom Tom:
thanks david. leisure games in london have seen my sites and they say they like the quality of my work and will stock the game when it's in print in a few weeks time.
i've also just commisioned a professional cartographer to do me a campaign map which won't be on my site for a couple of weeks though i'd guess.
Tom Tom:
i looked at your new storytelling rpg. very interesting, i've never played a game of that type before.
M. J. Young:
Tomas, Ron suggested getting some attention to your game before it appears here. Let me suggest that one way to do that is to write articles for role playing game web sites. Most of them have information posted on them concerning what they require and expect and how to go about writing for them.
The advantage is that it gives you some personal visibility and credibility in the gaming community, as well as exposing your game. If you can say, "I faced this problem when working on Malificarum, and this is how I resolved it," without making it sound like "Here is a plug for my game," you can get the name out there without sounding like you're posting promotional ads on a lot of sites.
Also, I realized as I was writing this that I had to pull the name of the game out of the string that is the URL--you never used it. Don't be afraid to use the name of your game; you want people to recognize it when they hear it and be able to recall it to mention it.
I know that RPGnet is always looking for good articles, and although Gaming Outpost's traffic is way down they make posting articles fairly easy. Places to Go, People to Be has a reputation for a higher standard, and you'll have to contact their editorial staff to discuss what they might be able to use (and it's a considerably longer process time-wise), but they also translate the best of their material into their French publication as well, which gives you wider exposure.
I hope this helps.
