I do not understand how exactly to use this site!?

I am confused

WordPress.com is a place where you can set up a website or blog.
If you’d like to learn more about using WordPress.com, this would be a good place to start: http://learn.wordpress.com/

I know that. I have three blogs already but i do not know how to get followers and more traffic. I do not know how to share my blog. This whole sit is so confusing. I do know if my “Addiction” blog was shared to twitter and linkedin and facebook. Do i have to make a new wordpress.com for every topic i do? I cant have “addictions” under “photography” . I am just very lost and i read all the help forums.

Two ways of attracting like-minded subscribers are
(1) commenting meaningfully and frequently on blogs with similar content

http://dailypost.wordpress.com/postaday/ebook-grow-traffic/If you want to increase traffic then don’t listen to anyone who professes there are passive ways of doing that. 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 posts (not pages) ie. unique content that cannot be found anywhere else on the internet.

http://onecoolsitebloggingtips.com/2014/01/20/finding-blogs-with-similar-content/These 5 videos introduce how Google discovers, crawls, indexes your site’s pages, and how Google displays them in search results.

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/
Neither Categories nor Tags are required for SEO purposes. Search engines like Google send targeted traffic to your blog based on results of keyword searches of your indexed content.
