Post Regularly

Make sure to post regularly! Although you don't have to post every single day, you should post at least once per week. The more often you post, the more often your posts will be pinged, the more often you'll get repeat visitors, and the more content you'll have in the search engines to bring you traffic!

Your RSS subscribers will also enjoy it if you post regularly, because they'll see your updates and be reminded to visit.

Squidoo & HubPages

Squidoo.com and HubPages.com both have a lot of Google authority. The articles posted there will often rank very well in the search engines, which can bring you a lot of traffic.

Basically, these sites allow you to make small, one page websites about practically any topic you choose. You can link back to your site from these pages, and you can also link to affiliate products for some additional income if you choose to.

These sites are free to use, and they make it very easy to set up pages, so I highly recommend giving them a try.

Social Marketing

There are many different social marketing methods, and most of them can be extremely useful for bringing targeted traffic to your blog.

Social networks like MySpace and Facebook are great, because they let you make lists of friends with similar interests.

For example, you can search Facebook for people who have golf listed as one of their interests, and add them as friends so you can communicate with them.

Facebook is particularly friendly to marketers. As long as you don't blatantly spam, you can market on their site. They also have groups, so you can start your own group related to your niche and market there to your heart's content!

Microblogs like Twitter let you build a friends list, also. Since you only have around 150-200 characters you can post in a single message on most microblogging sites, it takes very little time, and you can get a lot of traffic back to your blog.
