There are lot of great ideas available. I especially like the idea, “Interview other bloggers, than post about it.” I am going to integrate that into my posts, I just hope the high-profile bloggers I have in mind will have time to be interviewed! Some more ideas such as Yahoo! Answers is a great way to get traffic to any blog. I have been using that method for over a year now. Thanks for the ideas and I will definitely be coming back and trying everything on this list. or “Make a bumper sticker with your blog’s name and stick it on your car.
