    Write good content, be active and helpful/interesting on forums related to your topic and let other know about your blog (don't spam every post with a link), don't be afraid to link to other blogs (well-known or not), they will find out and could link back.
    And write interesting/useful content to which peoples will be willing to link to.

    Sign up with technorati.com and then read some of their help files. This will explain how technorati.com could potentially send you a lot of readers.

    No need to promote as for now.
    Write interesting, original content and you will get link love, google love and traffic ;)

    Write about 10-20 quality articles and then try to contact other bloggers in your niche to let them know about you, your blog, etc.

    and don't forget to ping your blog after you have posted new material on it.

    You can ping once a day. I use pingomatic dot com

    Ping-O-Matic is a service to update different search engines that your blog has updated.

    Good luck

    Cheers

    Write unique and interesting posts, ping your site, include technorati. And yes, do explore other blogs and comment on the posts of your interest. Do not post scrap comments, but pleasant ones and showing interest in the topic.

    I see you have over 400 posts. Why not put a link to your blog in your signature?

    Also you can get into article marketing. Write articles and have a link to your blog in the resource box.

    Try doing it naturally with mailing some freinds at first asking them what they think, you can also pay certain companies and they will send you traffic...it depend on how much you need it to happen.
