Hello! I am a new blogger and I'd like to build links to as many as possible jokes site in the Philippines. My site is a day old and I posted a few there. The jokes are originally written by me and other images and videos are sourced to the other sites. I would like to link this site to many joke sites but I don't have a list... If you have one that could help me get a good PR, please give include in your post. Please check my blog site: http://kulitanngpinoy.blogspot.com/ and suggest what I should do to have a high PR. Now, I tried to monetized it by putting some adsense and amazon associates. Is there anything I can put there? I am a student and the purpose of this site is to monetize it for my study, I really need a help. All of the help are highly appreciated. God Bless!
If you are serious about this blog, I suggest you to get private .com domain and host it. There are some providers who gives ad free hosting if you buy domain (doteasy) Try not over monetize your blog until you build some value or traffic to it. Submitting your blog to social bookmarks, directories, profiles links, forums, comments, etc will help to draw more traffic.
If your jokes are REALLY good, then Facebook could be a much better source for traffic in the beginning. SEO and getting referral traffic is very slow. atniz gave you a good advice. You can't be taken seriously if you don't take your own blog seriously. Get a .com domain and some hosting. You can find relevant niche forums, directories and blogs simply by searching on Google - find 20-30 bigger ones and you can get decent traffic and targeted links from them.
Most definitely, twitter, youtube, and facebook are all good sources for traffic initially. Feel free to harness the power of social media! Ditto to everything else.
