I've recently been using some different methods for getting traffic these days to new blogs. Some of which are:
Submitting to good blog directories
posting to twitter
posting to reddit
posting to stumbleupon
swapping links using linkspun and friends
swapping blog posts as well with individuals.
Any other ideas or thoughts that you have tried out which are successful these days? I didn't mention buying traffic because I really don't buy that much to be honest.
Feel free to share your ideas as well.
I have yet to try the pinterest stuff. Not sure how effective it is. I would like to find some more forums to post to as well to drive traffic but haven't been able to do so.
