    Hi Guys!

    I have a very new blog started it in mid may, didnt post regularly at then but now i intent to post at an average of 4-5 posts daily. What i would want to know is how do i advertise it to get good traffic. Right now i do nothing more than technorati pinging and have submitted it to few directories(4-5). but what I have observed is whenever I update my blog I get 30-40 unique visits that particular day. So if i continue that way it should jump up to 1000-1200 unique per month. Ironically if you see those stats i know many people get that much in just a day and thats what i want to know how do i achieve it.

    Please guys suggest some sites or ways to do it. Recently I Joined stumbleupon, still trying to understand it. can we stumble each other sites but I am not sure how much will this benifit me.

    I look forward to this topic and expect to learn something about marketing from digitaloint. Thnx.

    Abdullah!

    Nice blog you got there.

    Before getting huge amounts of traffic, I would start using the following sites:

    - Feedburner (RSS subscribers + social bookmarks)
    - MyBlogLog
    - BumpZee
    - submit to the blogging directories (see http://www.masternewmedia.org/rss/top55/)

    and I would install the ShareThis plugin.

    These enable your visitors to plug your site.

    Overall, its a nice blog. looks neat and clean. You should promote it as much as you can, use it in your sig link, leave comments on other relates blogs, and definitely add new posts to it on a regular basis. The content and freshness will attract the bots as well as more users. Occasionally, add interesting polls or maybe a competition to the blog if you can.
