Why doesn't SDE advertise for this game? It really needs more players
Simple fixes
1. Advertise on youtube through let's play videos
2. Have and advertise events for low level players
3. Start off low level players with more points/creds
4. Buff the overall exp, i know a lot of people complain that exp rate stinks
5. Advertise on websites for cheap $

@ number 4: exp gain rates do stink....but not for the reason you think they do. there is far too much exp in this game atm. what needs to be looked at is the 2 things causing players to put this game down. 1.) crashes and desyncs and 2.) end game content. specifically HA.

I know what you said in the sentence before, but I'll respond just as I would normally: You must be new here.

No, that's not the reason.

There are quite a few YouTube videos about NavyField out there, but they're probably not the type you're looking for. A number of people chronicle HA's and others have saved streams or recorded various tournaments, leagues, public games, and fleet events. How much good it does varies from person to person. I don't think the top priority is purely free advertisement.

far too much exp? we had 2 events recently, so right now yes but for new players I think the leveling is a bit slow, right now we have a lot less players and a lot less rooms, and you cannot get more than 1 level per battle as a low level? you gotta play 12 battles to get to lvl 12 to class your sailors? thats more than 2 hours of gameplay (considering you're in the battle for at least 5 minutes (waiting time/playing)). And as a low level ship if there arent any BK rooms up youre basically useless in a GB battle.. especially CAs at a low level. But i agree with your comment on Crashing/ desyncs.. that is a big buzzkill for new players

not new..and i agree that free advertising isnt the main priority. Main priority should be these crashes that some maybe most people deal with. Then get some kind of paid advertisement so that draws people in. Maybe a steam client release? idk thats what NF2 is currently trying to do, but once this game can attract a lot of players and keep a good % of new players it'll all just flow from there. Especially with the WOW hype, a lot of people wanna play some of these sim games

The current xp rate stinks? Wow man... The XP rate now a days is insane compared to how it use to be. What, you one to gain a level every battle?

True about exp gain. It is more than enough, as jacopo said.
The problem is that most players think they can only contribute in a GB from BB4 upwards, as they're getting their bottoms handed to them in a BB1-3. It does take a little while to get to level 89... I think there lies the problem (a gameplay problem), and from there stems the perception that exp rate "stinks". Personally, my solution to this was to use only AA ships until BB3 or so. Exp for that is nice (mostly shared).
But yeah, SDE would do well to invest some thinking into making mid-level gameplay more attractive (and giving out more exp is not part of that thinking). They would also have the records, I presume, to see at what point new players give up and leave the game.
What will help things over here is NF2 kicking the bucket (which I expect to happen quite soon, judging from player numbers and NF2 forum posts).

The Exp/credit gain isn't horrid. The only one thats a bit bad could be points. Exp certainly isn't horrid. There are some other issues hurting new players, but priority wise they absolutely must be behind fixing the core issues of the game. There aren't new players because the game is broken. When the game is fixed, SDE should advertise. There is already an invite your friend system, but the rewards aren't particularly great iirc. Not sure if its still around though

For me, i do advertising for the french community but the problem in this game, it doesn't attract them because people play like The Crew, Call of duty, etc. So they don't interest about thi game. Moreover, i do free advertising.
