Blog adviser

We've all googled 'How to promote your blog?', 'How to get more traffic to your blog' or something similar to that. And I've mostly found same tips on every page, so I decided to make a list of unusual (but very useful) ways to promote your blog.

1. Promote yourself on forums.
There are several ways to promote on forums. You can put you blog's link into your signature, you can put it below each post you make, and send personal messages to other people on forum (with your blog's link, of course). But be carfeoul and don't get to difficult.

2. Exchange links
This method can really help you in getting more traffic. I suggest you to try exchanging links with some popular blogs, or even web-sites, because more visitors they have - bigger chances they will click on your blog. If you've found a website you want to exchange links with, it's better to contact the owner by e-mail than by commenting one of his posts.

3. Comment other blogs
Again - if you comment more popular blogs, more people will see your blog. And still, don't just post a comment with your blog, but read the post and write something about it. It's very stupid to write just "nice post" or "cool blog". When you writethat, everyone knows you didn't even read the post. And that's not good.

4. E-mail a friend
Make an e-mail with your blog's adress, and type something like "please send this e-mail to another 5 people", and you start sending the e-mail to your contacts. Maybe some of them will continiue sending, and so on and so on. You can do the same with private messages on facebook, myspace and simmilar web-sites.
