One thing that might be different now (two years after this post was written) is the extent of new blogs on the internet. Will be interesting to see if the same growth patterns apply or if there is a "ceiling" in certain niches. Would be good to hear your thoughts and others on this.

Thanks to many of the things that I learned on the web, I have been able to find many new products to try, and get piad in the process. I would also recommend submitting articles to directories like e-zine for example. If you are a business blogger, I would recommend submiting articles to seeking alpha. What a great article!

I think visiting other blogs in your community is the easier way to make your name heard. I would also suggest submitting posts to blog carnivals and participating in an online forum related to your blog niche. More submissions to blog carnivals entices more readers, and online forums are great ways to establism blog friendships. Great article.

You're basically violating the <a href="https://www.google.com/adsense/localized-terms" rel="nofollow">Adsense TOS</a>, and once they kick ya' out, you're not getting back in.

Now that I am doing more blogging myself, one of the things I definately do is visit everyone's site that comments on mine (Tim, above, is an example) and I have started to leave comments more often as well. If we all share in the traffic and tips, then we share the wealth and we all have something to keep blogging about, right?
