Traffic is the lifeblood of your blog. Take a read of the official Blogger document “Promoting Your Blog”.

As suggested, you’ll want to make sure that you enable the setting to ping Weblogs.com. This means that each time you make a new post, Weblogs.com will be notified. Since many sites use Weblogs.com to check for blog updates, it’s a good idea to do this.

They also recommend submitting your blog to these sites:

1. Technorati
2. Daypop
3. Blogdex
4. Popdex

From time to time, keep looking for directories where you can submit your blog. Once your blog is listed, you will also get a backlink to your site. This will help to increase the PR of your site. With a couple of high PR sites, you’ll be able to get your new blogs indexed by the search engines a lot faster. Well now, you’re on your way to creating your own blog network.
