I've doing memes and joined commenting groups.. they have help to boost up traffic a bit but have yet to see a major increase..still working my way through it.

I am new to blogging, so this helps so much. My biggest problem is confidence...I am worried that no one will want to read what I have to say. But in my search for support, I found it so wonderful to find someone to relate to, and thus important to put myself out there for others to find.

Commenting and blog hops.

I am trying to comment on more blogs and would like to get into some forums too. I also join facebook groups in my niche and comment there and post links.

Great ideas - I need to check out Google Ad Words as well. It's nice to see/hear what others are doing - thanks ladies!
