    Page rank doesn't come in 5 days. If you don't build backlinks, then you won't have any PR. Google updates page rank once every 3-4 months

    Social bookmarking is pretty effective when it comes to getting traffic for blogs.

    I'd submit to some blog directories. Join some blogger forums. I'd also show off your blog on the blogger forums wherever allowed (free backlinks). Change your sig on all your forums to your blog. Write really good content and choose carefully which technorati tags to target. Then once it's a few weeks I'd pay someone here to submit it manually to like 500+ free directories.

    How do you use Social bookmarking? Do you make the announcement of your new blog posts on digg?

    Digg works best when the post is internet/ technology related. If your post makes it to the front page excellent, but you'll still get traffic with a fair amount of Diggs.

    Stumbleupon and Reddit are decent sources of traffic too

    I agree with surfaddict. This is your best way to get some decent traffic. Find 50 or so blogs that you enjoy and comment on a regular basis, then also drop comments on others as you see fit. If you leave 10 comments per day, you'll readership will steadily grow.

    BTW - don't worry about PR right now. If you have good content and traffic, PR will come naturally.

    Digg if you're an excellent writer will give you tons of traffic and your article is featured

    This is thing with new people to blogs. It is very easy to get traffic, but it doesn't come within 5 days, it takes a month of hard work put into it.

    Here's Sultan_Emerrs Links to getting your site Registered with the Search Engines...


    If you hope to get a load of returning visitors, you have to keep updating it with new things that make people want to keep going, and it's gotta look good. The better looking, the more people want to be affiliated with it. Also, make friends, and share links. Join web rings, give the links to your friends who are interested, and an interactive element like a message board, or such, will (if handled correctly) keep people coming back.

    1. Link to other pages, and have them link to you.

    2. Use relevant META tags for keywords and description

    3. Announce your website in many online forums (if Allowed or in your Signature File). Many sites frown on Posting about Personal Sites.

    4. Register your url with google and as many other search engines as possible.

    5. Update your site often to have repeat visitors.

    6. Add your url in your email signature.

    7. Do a search on google, then at the bottom of the page is "Disatisfied with results? Help us improve" link. Just fill out the info. and the spiders will go to your site.

    8. Add your url to your business card and pass them out.

    Don't bother with article sites - waste of time.

    Just write unqiue content, network with other bloggers, and you'll get trafffic, it's the unique content and networking that will build up your reputation as a blogger, and then people will link to you which increases your Google PR.

    Great list buddy. I did my blog in some site but found some good ones too. I get PR3 with DP backlinks and few other ones. DP is also rocks for you. Use your signature place for promotion.
