Take advantage of other traffic sources : as I mentioned in a korea mobile phone number previous post, there is a whole other world out there if you are looking for traffic .

Create a community among readers : Social networks such as Twitter and Facebook allow you to create a community around your blog. Your followers and “fans” can express their support which they can then share with their network of contacts and help you grow your reader base.
Build loyalty with your audience : A high subscriber base means you are able to build loyalty with your readers . They have given their permission to receive your new articles by email. Make it easy for them to subscribe to your blog . Creating series is an example of content that encourages subscription to your blog.
Take advantage of events and presentations : if you have the opportunity to present in public and reach a live audience, take the opportunity to mention that you have a blog. You will be surprised how many people will visit it afterwards and even actively participate through comments .
