Hi there,
I don’t do blog evaluations free of charge and don’t know of anyone who does. That’s paid work for a consultant.The worst thing any new blogger can do is fail to:
1. publish unique high quality content frequently;
2. comment meaningfully on blogs with similar content.Make sure you comment meaningfully on many on other blogs with similar content, knowing that this is the slowest traffic period of the year.

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.
