How am I supposed to get my blog read?
-
Seriuously. How am I supposed to get people to read my blog? How are they even supposed to find it? It’s not going to look interesting to them by the title. How are new bloggers supposed to be discovered?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

This is a good place to start: http://en.support.wordpress.com/getting-more-views-and-traffic/ .
The head over to http://onecoolsitebloggingtips.com/ and look through all the information there on increasing traffic.

…find other bloggers with your interests via the categories and tags appropriate to your own blog, then comment on what they’ve written. Try to find bloggers just starting out and who are looking for attention, just like yourself. Use your blogroll (links widget)… when I was starting out, finding my blog’s name in someones blogroll was a big rush. It takes some work, but it’s probably the best way to grow your blog.

You can change the Title of your Blog if you want Dashboard >> Settings >> General
Also a title like “Story 1” is not real descriptive.
Good luck

attach a link to your site onto your email messages – send an email to your entire address book with the link attached – or post a lot of responses here and see how many of the INCREDIBLY WONDERFUL AND HELPFUL people in this place click onto your blog from here – find a half dozen like blogs and visit them every day so you get onto their stats, maybe a couple of them will bounce back to you – everyone is stat crazy here, except me of course — never read ’em

You need to learn how to effectively promote each post you publish as well as your blog. It is not in the best interests of your blog to remain behind the blogspot or wordpress.com garden wall, so to speak. It is in your blog’s best interest to actively promote your blog posts to bloggers working on all blogging platforms, and that’s done via social media and social networking.

Justin,
A simple thank you would suffice.How sharper than a serpent’s tooth it is to have a thankless child!
