Could be a lot of things. If the starter turns slowly or just clicks when you turn the key, then maybe the starter is bad. If the battery cables are corroded, that could make the car hard to start. When you put the new battery in, did you clean the cable clamps and tighten them down fairly tight? If you don't have a good battery connection, the starter will click and not crank at all.
A bad alternator can kill a battery, but your battery is new. You would have to run the car for awhile to kill the new battery with a bad alternator.
It could also be a fuel problem. If the car cranks normally, but doesn't start, it could be a bad fuel pump, clogged fuel filter or dirty fuel injection.
