I built a blog through blogspot and have been adding content daily for a week. What are the next steps to begin generating traffic?
seomoz.org, read the blog.... http://www.seomoz.org/article/bg5#5d There are 10000000 threads with the same question, just search for it...
Take some time and read through a few posts on this forum regarding SEO... there is a wealth of knowledge available to get you started.
Adding unique and relevant content, proper use of keywords, social bookmarking, participation in relevant forums where you can activate signature using proper keyword, article submission, directory submission, submit news, join twitter for live traffic.. (just make sure that nothing goes wrong or else it will look like spamming for popularity). These are all basics you need to do when you are starting with a new blog. Let some time pass then just improve your activities.
First of all do some keyword research find some less competitive keywords related to your industry that get a decent amount of traffic. Then use those keywords in your title and discription. Make sure that you also maintain good keyword density in your all posts with your main keywords but make sure that it doesn't looks like spam. Then go on with link building.
I would like to add few more point Before the application of these methods Make sure you provide something useful visitor to stay with you always visitor Non-targeted = great loss Thanks HighRankingSEO
