    What would be the best way for a news blog, to be marketed. I get just over 10 visitors everyday which is quite pathetic you see :p. So I've registered in every blog directory. I get no traffic there, the news blogs are about Iran and Oil soo both of them are my interests but I get no traffic so it's kind of pointless to post. I will of course. So I was wodnering what is the best way to market and if I wont get visitors what should my next blog be about. I need something that will generate traffic. Like what hasn't been done.
    Thanks mates.

    I just posted a detailed outline at V7N titled Social Networking in the Blogosphere. You can check that out for some good ideas on generating traffic to your blog.

    Quick tips: Use TAGS in each individual post, and get quality inbound links.


    When it comes to choosing a niche or topic for a new blog, do a little keyword research at Overture or WordTracker and pick something that people are actively searching for.
