That is one of the things that is hard when I was just starting my blog, waiting for readers. It actually took some time before I had some followers and avid readers of my blog.

It's more important to enjoy posting rather than being concerned over SEO and rank. Those who don't enjoy posting burn out quickly. I don't optimize all my posts. In fact, I probably only search engine optimize 1 out of 7 posts. Cara, if SEO will take the fun out of blogging, then don’t bother with it.

Especially for a newbie! My blog is not so much information but life annecdotes that I think/hope others can relate to. Will the above tactics work for a blog that is less information focused and more light reading/entertainment focused? Not sure if linkbacks and optimizing google searches will work in the same way. I'm writing more for a creative outlet for me...should I jsut be happy with that and take any views I can get? Great post! Especially for a newbie!

Being a new blogger myself I can use all the tips I can get. I started my blog to share my writing with others, and as you know a writer withou readers is as useless as doing math for fun.

I'm at 5 subscribers today. :) Sor far I've seen the truth to a couple of your tips; some traffic has come through Google, and STC noticed my blog because I mentioned the organization and linked to the main site. Subscribers are great, though a feed eliminates the experience of seeing the look and feel of the site. But I suppose that if readers have seen the site once, that's all they really need, and then they're after just the information. <em>Ben's last blog post..<a href='http://www.gryphonmountain.net/archives/techcomm/id-like-you-to-meet-someone-mr-css' rel="nofollow">I’d Like You to Meet Someone: Mr. CSS</a></em> Thanks for the mention, Tom.
