You can increase your chances of getting referrals by using a site called mturk it only cost very little cash basically $1.00 or more depending on the task you create, its affiliate with amazon create a task of your own, or complete a task made by others and get paid, if you decide to become a task maker you can create a task that allows other members to sign up to your favorte program. it worked for me, I got my 4th sign up to one my favorte sites the other day the downside is getting active sign ups but check FAQ to make sure this service is available in your country.

they are available in my countrybut as you said the biggest downside is that the refferals are not active i think its most probably a wste to money as well as effort. These people out there need to earn the money.. i think the best way would be to raise the offered amount a little and ask them to be active of a week or something like that. this way i would be getting some of my money back and maybe the site will nterest the person and he will continue on the site.

Well i never like the sign up job even on microworkers, the problem here is that there are so many job pertaining to joining just one site and that is 'neobux' ther quite a craze to get people to join under you, but a lot of people already have an account and getting another one would break teh rules , so i dont do the join a site task on any of the sites.

i think the natural way to get traffic is blogwalking, use SEO, and also join to traffic exchange site. i have a friend who just use one way to get traffic. he just use SEO and you know what? visitor of his blog reached 350.000 visitors.

There are many ways, but unfortunately they need time. Some of them are: commenting on relevant blogs, getting involved in social networking sites, youtube videos, profile pages, forums etc. I have a blog with much info and tips on this. Check my profile for the link, I think you will find some useful info.

Okay so there are several things you can do starting with SEO, so basically choosing keywords you want to target and placing them in titles and through out the discussion. You can also post regularly because then people and search engines will see the regular content and keep coming back. You can also go around forums and other blogs leaving comments which then link back to your blog, picking up traffic from them. And you can write articles for articles sites such as hubpages, which then link back to your own blog. All of these will help generate traffic and also help with your position in search engine results. But here is the biggest and guaranteed thing you can do to get traffic. Firstly become an expert within the niche you write about, or at least write well qualified, informative and opinionated posts. Once you have some great material strike up a friendship with another blogger who already has a lot of traffic to their blog and offer them a guest post. If that blogger uses your guest post you will be inundated with traffic, more than you can imagine. Plus if those guys like what you write on your blog then they will keep returning and recommending you to others. It is without a doubt the best way to get a serious amount of traffic much of which will stick around and return.

I'm a newbie too, and it frustrates me to see that my website has a downtrend but i don't give up . I know one of these days i will know the technique and i will make one blog that will be a complete success.

The best way is to write on the subject that is of interest to viewers. So many times when a person is new to internet, they pick highly competitive keywords that are dominated in the search engine. i.e. SALE, CLEARANCE SALE, LAST MINUTE SALE

Well thanks for the reply but what i really wanted was that for a normal person (who does not want to sell anything). What would be the best way to increase traffic. Writting articles that are interesting to the articles is a good way to increase the traffic momentarily for that span , but how to get consisten viewers?

The best way is publish quality posts, use standard keywords which are search engine specific, The search engine traffic is most direct way of attracting traffic to your site, then there are some traffic exchange sites like easyhits4u, trafficera, entrecard and so on. Use these sites in order to drive more traffic to your sites

The best way is adding great content, using seo, and developing links to your website. Use social networking to promote your website like Twitter. I blog about these topics if anyone is interested on my blog which is linked from my profile. (Not going to spam link in here) Good luck to all webmasters and bloggers.
