If you are a blogger i guarantee you this is worth a read … Some of good tips are:

1. Eric Atkins
   Create a new design for your website. Not only will it be more attractive to your regular readers, but you can submit it to some CSS gallery showcase sites that feature great designs. This will give you exposure on those sites while generating a lot of traffic and backlinks from those types of sites.
2. Tillerman
   Be the first to write a post about the Top Ten Blogs in your niche. The post will rank highly in any general search for blogs in your niche and other bloggers in your niche write about the post and link to it.
3. Guido
   Comment on blogs, write useful content and make good friends on forums.
4. Jester
   Leave comments on other blogs. If youre already reading them, it takes just a couple of seconds to leave a message agreeing or disagreeing with the author, you get to leave a link to your site, and you will almost ALWAYS get traffic from your comments.

   Community. Its one word but it is the most important one when it comes to blogging. The only blog metric that makes sense is the vibrant community of readers it has. Building a community around your blog will bring you increased traffic, but how do you start? The boilerplate response to building traffic is always SEO, social networking sites, and commenting on blogs but it can be simplified to be part of a community. The easiest way to seed your blog is with an already existing community. But the only way to do that is to be part of the community yourself.

   Post 3-5 times a day. Use ping services like pingomatic or setting up wordpress to ping some of the ping services. Engage your readers. Put up polls, ask them questions, give them quizes, free tools, etc. Make them want to come back and tell their friends about you.
7. Jen Gordon
   I came upon some unexpected traffic when my blog popped up on some css design portals like www.cssmania.com and www.webcreme.com. If you can put some time into the concept behind and design for your blog, Id recommend submitting your site to a design portal not only for
   additional traffic but to build an additional community around your site.

   Simplify. Pay attention to complex issues in your field of work. It may be a big long publication that is hard to wade through or a concept that is hard to grasp. Reference it and make a shorter for dummies version with your own lessons learned and relevant tips. When doing this, I have been surprised to find that the simplified post will appear before the more complex version in search results. Perhaps this is why it results in increased traffic; people looking for more help or clarification on the subject will land on your blog.

And here is one non-conventional tip from me:

“Try to get stumbled upon, it can potentially bring you around 10,000+ uniques every month.”
