I remember a few months ago, Darren posted a list of weird keywords that he was getting traffic for. http://www.problogger.net/archives/2007/07/13/about-me-and-the-search-term-competition-the-results/ Kinda funny how one of the top keywords was "About Me". About stumbleupon, my advice is to simply use it as a discovery tool, rather than traffic. @CompuWorld: I agree with you that keyword analysis can be very important in trying to get more traffic to your blog.

Kinda funny how one of the top keywords was “About Me”.

About stumbleupon, my advice is to simply use it as a discovery tool, rather than traffic.

Here goes my response point by point: 1) One more way to know more about your readers is constantly study the the search keywords which lead to your blog. This is a better method if your blog gets more of the readers from Google search like my blog. More than 50% if my readers are from Google search so the keywords which lead to my blog teach me very well what kind of people are coming to my blog. Others are my feed readers and readers from various forums and social networking sites were I take part. 2) Guest posting is an awesome way to make friends and I started that few days back but I am afraid my contact form isn't working :( Need to work on that. Thank you for reminding! 3) One important warning which I will like to post related with stumble upon is never to stumble your own blog posts. You will soon be banned from SU if you continue this practice. Better keep the 15:1 ratio. Stumble 15 different blogs before stumbling your blog because if by mistake your blog gets banned from SU than you will loose a major traffic source. 4) I still have to work on this point to publicize my blog.

They work side-by-side and when one of them is gone, nothing will make the blog a good blog any more. Good posts on marketing strategy.

I found that trying to connect on a personal level with some of your readers could work on some blogs. Sparking conversations could also work. Thanks Aditya, a very solid post.
