1. Get RSS installed in your blog – For those of you who do not know, RSS stands for Real Simple Syndication, which is appropriate because it’s a very simple way to syndicate the content of your blog to other sites and aggregators. The most effective way I know of to syndicate your RSS is through Feedburner. This one submission should get you into a lot of directories across the Web.
2. Optimize your site for search – Search engine optimization tactics can make your site popular very fast. Ranking for the right term will sky rocket your traffic literally overnight. Blogs are inherently east to optimize. They have the main things Google looks for, plenty of fresh content, and usually some good links back from other websites. .But for now consider the following items. Follow step 1 and get your feed into a RSS syndication service. Ask other bloggers to link to your blog through their postings or on their blogroll. And title your postings with terms you would like to rank for. Follow those three simple rules, and keep your blog updated often, and search traffic should find your site. If you are on your own domain name, you may want to consider using Google Sitemaps to get your pages indexed even faster.
3. Make it easy for others to help you – Adding social tagging systems like Technorati will help people find your site through blog searches. And adding links for people to add your posting toDigg or StumbleUpon will help your gain traction quickly.Many blog directories are available out there I'll be giving a list of such blog directories in near future.
4. Be social – Make sure to comment on other blogs, and add blogs to your blogroll that you like. This is half the fun in blogging anyway, and it will help build up your popularity with other bloggers.
