    Hello guys..

    Honestly i'm kinda desperate...
    no matter what i do i get almost the same amount of uniques daily for my blog http://menmind.com (less than 10) and to be honest... it's driving me crazy.

    I've been commenting on other people blog
    answering questions on yahoo and stuff like that... and my uniques visitors seems to keep the same.

    :(

    • List your blog in signature links using attractive anchor.
    • Submit to free directories and try paid as well.
    • Join social bookmarking sites.
    • Keep in touch with bloggers here and on other forums.
    • Article submission can also work.
    • Do reviews and get your blog reviewed

    This is what I can recall right now, there may be some other things to do.

    Exactly...participate in forums here..in DP too..and give exposure....submit to directories...hire somebody to submit manually to 50 dirs for $5 say...write such content that google search will love--i.e. quality uniqe content and do a bit of SEO and have good pagerank by getting many links back pointing to your blog....

    Hold a monthy contest. Give away a small prize... maybe a $5 gift card.

    Submit the contest to contest sites, the majority let you do so at no cost.

    Require readers to subscribe to your feed, in exchange for their entry. Do this on an ongoing basis and you will notice a steady increase in visitors.

    At least, I did. :)

    You have a lot of spelling errors in your articles. For people to view your site as an authority, you'll have to clean up what you are writing.

    Yes it looks not so good with the english..

    And I'd advice Social Bookmarking as the best option.
    Believe it or not, my site got 3500 Uniques in the first month from Stumbleupon!!

    It's a little costly, but I've created bizarre eBay auctions to generate buzz. I'll get a spike of uniques and have gathered some long-term subsribers that way.

    Here's what I've sold so far:

    Monday (yes, the day)
    My ethics in a Jar
    The Iranian Government (made $38!)
    A Male enhancement tool (a paper towel roll and a roll of duct tape)
    Haunted belly button lint (7,000 hits in 48 hours, but cancelled by eBay)

    I'm thinking about selling the 2008 election!

    Start a contest or invite a guest blogger to do a post. These two have shown tremendous results, I tell you.
