Join both and actively meet tons of people. @Rodney: Thanks! All you can do is make friends with people and build a reader base. It takes time and obviously a lot of work. I leave a few hundred comments on other blogs per week and I used to leave over 500. Hang in there and don't get in a hurry :smile: @Billy: Yes! Join both and actively meet tons of people.

I agree though - I've tried quite a few traffic-exchange widgets, and none of them really work - a couple of pageviews here and there, that's all. Commenting and organic search traffic are by far the most effective traffic sources for me. Sadly, I'm not as far along as you - I still chase traffic at the moment, but I guess there'll come a time when I'll sit back a bit and take it as it comes. Very counter-cultural!

I have not tried mybloglog or blogcatalog yet so will be having a look at these. Can you recommend any good resources on how to effectively use either of them? Thanks <em>Billy's last blog post..<a href='http://www.get-camping.net/outdoor-cooking/campfire-grills/' rel="nofollow">Campfire Grills - Choosing The Right Grill</a></em> Hi Bobby,

Nice read, I’m trying to get into blogging and you cemented some ideas nicely for me. I have not tried mybloglog or blogcatalog yet so will be having a look at these.

Can you recommend any good resources on how to effectively use either of them?

Thanks

I like to check new things out and it can be fun. I think I just got a little burned out on many new fads and it takes a lot for me to try new things now. I just spend my time reading blogs and writing. Really, my good friends on Facebook and other sites are all blogging buddies too! :smile: I know just how you feel Sue.

Looking back, it all seems kinda silly! I like to just pop in on blogs and see what they are about. I like your writing style. <em>Tim's last blog post..<a href='http://reddeerdigest.com/2008/03/11/red-deer-swap-meet-march-15-at-westerner-park/' rel="nofollow">Red Deer Swap Meet March 15 at Westerner Park</a></em> I used to get involved in those link virus thingies on one of my other blogs.
