    the simple idea. is join mybloglog.... you can start from there. and remember if you start contributing to others Blog. they will start noticing you and few members would join your community.

    this will help you to understand how to move on then... by the time you will gain the momentom

    Yes, but often you get spammy commenters, allow me to explain.

    I was on holiday for two weeks recently, over that time a comment from some guy with a keyword rich name commented on my blog, and got through my spam filters. Over two weeks he commented more and more becoming as he'd call it "My best friend", but he only commented on high PR articles.

    From then he commented more and more, until I came back on holiday, notice comments all over the place from this one guy, and I blocked him. Now, I've had accidentally blocked people, and people have accidentally blocked me, and usually I send an e-mail asking why I was blocked, or vice versa. This guy sent me nothing. I figured that it was because he knew he was in the wrong.

    Comment on other blogs in a non spammy method. Find a blog you like and if it's not huge like John Chow or Problogger, chances are a few comments will get you more visitors. Keep doing it and they'll become readers.

    Participate in Group Writing Projects too.

    One thing that you can start to do is to visit all those blogs teaching you blogging tips. I learnt a lot from those blogs.

    Other than what was said above you should probably join blogcatalog. There are a lot of bloggers who are just starting out and its easy to network with them. Mybloglog is OK but it doesn't have the community atmosphere that blog catalog has. There are threads such as "what is unique about your blog" "post your best article" etc that can help you promote it.

    Install reputable spam filters such as spam karma or aksimit (or whatever that is called. the default one that is.)

    I added the "top commentators" plugin for wordpress and that really helped me gain more comments :)

    join the diggers and the stumblers in their communities (digg and stumble upon), make some friends and make sure that you mingle with the crowd there. After a while you'll probably get a story or two (if they are interesting of course) made popular and this will drive you some decent traffic. From then on it is all up to you and the content that you present to maintain this traffic even increase it.
