    Do some promotions.. Like what you did on this forum. Also you can do some classified ads posting, social bookmarking and most of all social networking. Join other niche related blogs, do some link exchange with them

    I think your layout needs some work. The sidebars look too narrow and has too much information on them. You could also improve the header and take out the ads on there. I suggest keeping the ads on only one side/part of your site, like after each post, instead of on different areas.

    There are various tech-related forums that you can go to and participate in to promote your blog. I also suggest writing articles and submitting them to directories to get backlinks to your site.

    Hope that helps. Have a good day!

    - Create fan page in social network and publish in social network to share with your friends.
    - Don't be selfish , do some guess post on other popular side and traffic from there.
    - Get some referral from other side by exchange.
    - Comment on study in other people blogs as well and interact with the author and readers.

    Find your own voice and settle on a limited topic range. No matter how good the design is or how much traffic you have, you will fail if you don't have something interesting to say.

    Of course, the hard part is finding that voice in the first place. Here are a few pointers:

    - be opinionated - you're not a bot, when you talk about something it's OK to offer your own personal take
    - stay on top of current events - pretty much self-explanatory, this also has an added SEO bonus, since you will be in synch with current trends
    - be controversial - it's perfectly fine to touch on controversial issues as long as you have something meaningful to say
    - take a stand against the giants - and by giants I mean other successful bloggers. If you disagree with one of their recent posts, explain your position
    - establish a personal style - this will come in time, but you'll eventually find it

    Hope this helps.

    Best regards,
    George

    Hi - I've had a look at your blog and agree with a lot of what's been said already - I think at the moment it looks a bit too much like a sales page. I think the informative, educational stuff should be more prominent than the adverts - you need to make it interesting enough so people will want to come back for more - as George says, you need to find your own unique voice and style. Also, sometimes less is more - I think a simpler layout would be better.

    I'd recommend to try video marketing. If you can build the viral video then you will get a lot of free traffic to promote your site.

    Hmmm, уоu hаvе chosen a pretty competitive blog topic. SEO сould work іn thе long run, but quick results (PPC) would bе bettеr in mу opinion fоr generating some traffic. Find а great courѕе on facebook PPC beсаuѕe іts ѕtіll cheap to advertise with them. And include аn opt in form оn your blog оr facebook fan page. Let yоur subscribers know everytime yоu update yоur blog and уou receive guaranteed traffic

    The layout seems clean. But, the topics are kind of mixed. I think you should concentrate on only one topic to rank faster and to have regular readers. But every beginner would always start from a 'Mixed Bag' kind of blog, the one where you write about anything under the sun. But, as you age as a blogger, you'll see that separating topics is best.

    As for getting traffic, try StumbleUpon. It gets me traffic everyday. Sometimes, I get traffic spikes. Good luck!

    You can market your blog by joining related blogs in your niche and leaving comments on them, ensure that the comments adds value or else they might be removed

    It never hurts to use backlinks under your anchored keyword you are wanting to rank in! Besides that using forum posters or buying ad space are your only other options to promote your website!
