I've been busy looking into different ways of optimizing my blog to increase traffic. I came across this great
article last night and thought I would share. It is a list of 101 ways to increase traffic to your blog. I found some new social blog sites I hadn't heard of before. One is
spicypage and the other is
zimbio. These sites are cool because you can submit your blog posts as articles for added exposure to your blog. Please vote for me and or join if you get the chance! I'm still looking through the list but I'll add updates as I go when I find other cool sites. Have fun!

Alexa Internet, is a California-based subsidiary company of Amazon.com that is best known for operating a website that provides information on the web traffic to other websites.
Alexa collects information from users who have installed an “Alexa Toolbar,” allowing them to provide statistics on web site traffic, as well as lists of related links. It uses these data to form Alexa ranking. There is some controversy over how representative Alexa’s user base is of typical Internet behavior. If Alexa’s user base is a fair statistical sample of the internet user population, Alexa’s ranking should be quite accurate. A known source of bias is the self-selecting, opt-in nature of Alexa traffic tracking software installation, but the significance of this bias on rankings is not reported. Alexa ranking measures traffic ranking collected from Alexa toolbar users. High alexa ranking has no relationship with high google ranking, yahoo ranking, and etc.
Ranking in Alexa is significant as it can significantly increase your bargaining power when it comes to selling advertising on your site. If advertisers see that your site has a higher ranking, they are likely to think that they can sell more of their products and services by having a link on your site. This means that you can charge them higher fees for that link.
thats so cool, thank you!!
Great tips. I'm on spicypage, too and it has brought some traffic to my site. Will have to try the other one you mentioned. Your other posts have some good ideas on where else to promote so I'll be checking back for more info. :o)
Have you seen the Technorati experiment that's floating around? It's a viral post (you copy it from one person's blog and post it into yours) that increases you Technorati rank. I've seen it on several blogs and finally broke down and added it to mine.
Cheers!

ooh, thanks pam, I'll definitely look into it ;)
I think content is the major role that will play most important part when we talk about building traffic on a website or blog. we cannot do much without content. Apart from adding valuable content on our blogs, we should write some guest posts on top blogs in our niche
