So how do you manage to get readers for your blog and keep them?

  1. Study the top 100 blogs on technorati. It’s always a good idea if you start something: take a look at the competition
  2. Provide excellent and unique content. That’s probably the hardest part of all, and it’s often hard to give away stuff as well. So if it hurts to publish a post cause you unveil a secret (not a secret of your employer) your on the right track
  3. Write about yourself – at least some and add images – its engaging for readers to know something about you
  4. Don’t write about yourself – this can be sooooo boaring
  5. Do e-mail interviews with the famous – hard to achieve but try
  6. Post consistently – at least once a week better more often
  7. Tell people about it – tag on technorati, bookmark on delicious and myweb, have the blog URL in your e-mail signature – or tell them offline
  8. Comment on blogs you read – the whole world is give and get
  9. Be controversy – if you just say all is nice and fluffy – people will keep watching tv-ads
  10. Forget all the above and change the world – that’s really the holy grail – don’t read top ten lists or care about them – Change something!

Guy has some great ideas too and seth of course even more.
