    Target some specific keywords and then get backlinks (link exchanges) using those keywords.
    If you have a good PageRank, you will get good SERPs at Google.

    If we're talking blogs, then submit to Technorati and sites like Blogatiser to get backlinks. Also ping your blog a lot.

    What kind of niche are you currently in?

    For traffic, focus on some keywords ( Use the adwords keyword tool to find out something that suits you), and then work towards achieving it.

    Optimise your page titles, and use those keywords when you post.

    *If you are using Word Press, get "All in one SEO" plug in to optimize your posts.

    *Put Keywords in your titles and headlines (but don't be spammy)

    *Social Bookmarking (without spamming) and blog communities like Blog Catalog, and My Blog Log

    *Write good, and original content, not rewritten, or auto posted crap.

    *Submit your RSS feed to RSS directories.

    *Make sure you have an appealing, professional design so people will link to you naturally if they like you r content.

    *Write in a niche that is not over saturated like "Make money online", "Blogging" or "SEO" and make sure your blog is better written, and better designed than all of your competition, or at least the little guys like you.

    *Write articles in your niche and submit them to article directories.

    *Study your niche, and know more about it than anyone.

    *Update with fresh content on a steady schedule, no matter what that is...once a day, every 2 days, once a week..what ever.

    *Get a ping list (no more than 10 or 20 services) and updated it in your dashboard.

    *Use nice images in your blog...Google images sends traffic !!

    All the above are good suggestions, but the best way to get SE traffic is to post original material daily. Ensure that your post titles contain search target phrases and that the body of your text contains both target keywords and synonyms. Also, aim for wide coverage in your niche, targetting the long tail as well.

    If you see SE visitors arriving at your blog through a particular search term, then write more related articles on that topic. For example, if you write a post "How to polish a turd" and you see Google sending visitors for the term "turd polishing" then you might like to write "Turd Polishing: An historical perspective" and "The 5 best turd polishing techniques" etc.

    Try to get a link or two to your blog from within the post body of another blog in your niche. Social bookmarking links and all the others mentioned above are ok, but they are very low weighting and count for little. It's authority you want.

    Try and get natural traffic from the search engines, by building backlinks, you can do this by submitting to web and blog directories, promote for the keywords that you would like to rank for.

    Try commenting on other related blogs too.
