Help to get people to visit my blog.
-
Hi I am trying to get more of a community experience, but have no idea how to get people to read my blog or how to find like-minded people to visit. Any suggestions? Also, not sure if this theme is really working for me, the pages feature does not seem to work. Any suggestions would be most appreciated and I will also reciprocate if and when I am able. Thank you.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Two ways of attracting like-minded subscribers are
(1) commenting meaningfully and frequently on blogs with similar content and
(2) being active on social networking sites.On the bottom of your Admin page you will find a link to the Learn WordPress.com blogging Tutorial prepared by Staff. http://learn.wordpress.com/

Increasing traffic to a blog is hard work. If you want your blog to rank well in search engine results then that begins with creating and publishing original content ie. unique content that cannot be found anywhere else on the internet.

If you are using a WordPress.com theme good SEO is a given. However, going beyond the theme what the blogger has done within that structure is worth evaluating. Whether you write informative, persuasive or controversial content learning how search engines work, and how to apply basic SEO to you content will benefit your blog as it will increase traffic from targeted readers. http://onecoolsitebloggingtips.com/2011/10/21/two-seo-videos-for-bloggers/
