I recently opened up an account, what's the best way to get people to read?

After looking at your blog, one of the first things I notice is the absence of keywords or tags to your entries. For every entry you make, you should enter as many keywords as possible. Also, do a lot of reading up on SEO as this will play a big part in getting more traffic. Also, look into linking your site on social bookmarking groups such as digg it and del.ic.ious. Just a start. Good luck!

What type of keywords should I use? I tried to put a few on there, but I'm not sure what else I should add. Also, what is digg and del.ic.ious? Do I have to pay for those services?

Social bookmarking just makes it easier for people to find your site. These sites are free to use. Someone also mentioned stumpleupon, which is another good one. Keywords just make it easier for readers to find relevant content. Also, keep it clean and don't junk it up too much. You'll look more legit that way. Happy writing!

HI,
That sure is courageous of you to quit your job to write at home.
I wish and dream the day I can do that, it may be when I am sixty years old.
However, I am going to add you as my friend list so I can send you the links to promote your blog site for free.
You can also try triond.com- they pay for writing too.

Great, thank you. I'm sure this is not a permanent solution, but it will keep me busy until I find what I really want to do. I don't really know what that is just yet. But I'm young, so I have time to figure it out.

I've never written for a blog before. I just started last week, so I need to figure out exactly the style. I have only really done writing for journalism. Do you know of any good books?

You have light green text on a pink background in one of your posts and it is hard to read. Also your blog doesn't appear to have a focus. If you concentrate on a subject that you know a lot about / have experence in that may help.
