You basically need more content - search engines catch hold of content - keywords. Likewise, to get visitors, and return visitors, that hang around long enough to look at what there is to click on, you need to attract their attantion more. Tell the visitor more about the photos, about how they were taken, the technical stuff, what you can do in photoshop. Just give more content.
What I did with one of my websites (MoneymakingSites,info) was to search google or yahoo with my desired keywords, eg; "money making ideas" to find the first blog/forum or leave comment pages listed in the top 10 for that keyword. I would reply to an article on the site and leave my URL on it as a one way in bound link with high PR and high traffic flow. Since such sites arise to the top of busy keywords your guaranteed some traffic and some PR score (otherwise they wouldn't be listed in the top 10 in the first place!) An important thing to remember through, contribute to the topic on such sites with a full-hearty response and intelligent reply. This in some cases can get you invited back!. As in one of my comments the webmaster personally emailed me asking me back to blog on his site an relation to the topic that I had replied to. With this method you may build up good creditability for you site and reference traffic independent of the keyword landing position on google and yahoo. Best of luck!
Hi I have read the posts, it can take a huge /long time to get decent traffic. has your site been indexed yet? Do you have back links? I use a program which generates traffic to my blog sites, one of my sites has over 50000 pages, who knows how many blogs!! PM me and I will send you more information about it, if you like
Yeah, get some original content, no copies. If you manage to get that, there's no more SEO to do (well, maybe some) because Google spiders blogger blogs like crazy.
More of content in the blog required, otherwise what SEs will crawl on your blog? Then develop back links. Check out some affiliate programs that suit to your blog content.
Seriously, I'd suggest using a different design. Your design is the same one as strobist and seeing as your both in the same niche...
