If you have a blog you need to promote it. That is just common sense. You can not just expect people to just know you have a blog and visit it. Almost everyone has heard of Entrecard or BlogUpp as a way of getting more traffic and exposure. But those can not be the only two sites you use. You will get some traffic but not a lot. These are a few that seemed to catch my eye.
Blog Engage : A great site to submit your own blog posts. Readers get to vote on your blog and with enough “engages” your post moves to the front page.
Conduit: You are able to make your own toolbar for readers to download. There is also an opportunity to earn a little money.
Zimbo: A user driven site that will help not only help you get more inbound links but you will be able to reach more people who may enjoy reading your blog.
I am still learning so I am pretty sure there are tons of other sites that can be used to promote your blog. What are your recommendations?

I haven’t used any of the last 3 but i do have Blogg Up and I can’t say it’s done anything at all for me. Maybe it has and I don’t notice it. No telling really. Maybe i’ll try to pay better attention lol
I can contribute – by using link referral you can get traffic by doing 5 reviews of sites per day. You don’t get “alot” of traffic, usually somewhere between 20 -60 additional readers but many of them stay on so you slowly build your readership.
@ nessa you know i was thinking about you and I am suprised you don’t use Twitter. I forget to list that as a way to promote your blog.
@ Renee: link referral sounds like a good idea. I review sites on my own anyways so I think I will give it a try. Thanks!
