Public Sticky notes
An excellent way to jump-start a new blog is to write a lively and authoritative article about your particular topic, then alert other bloggers in the hope that some of them will link to you. I’ve done it for two of my blogs, with good results.

I posted my article, “The Bird Flu Bloggers” – a review of all the best blogs covering bird flu - late in October, then sent polite emails to 50-or-so of the most popular writers in the blogosphere, suggesting they might be interested in it. A couple of them mentioned it on their sites, bringing me several thousand hits over a few days.

I repeated the process a month later with “The Best Bird Flu Humor on the Internet – A Top Ten List” Only one blogger linked to it, but that was sufficient for a further several thousand hits.

But I found that each time when the tide turned I was left with quite a few more regular visitors than before.

readable, authoritative, medium-sized article.

finding a theme can also be tricky.

Try to be topical. See what the leading bloggers are writing about.

Be polite in your emails to other bloggers, alerting them of your piece. Try to sum up the article in just one or two short sentences. And don’t repeat the process more than, say, once or twice a month.
