How can I get my blog "out there"?

[Kelsie]

So, I've recently started blogging. And I absolutely LOVE it! My blog is a work in progress, but the issue is I want to reach people. See, the mission of my blog is to make people smile. I want to share my experiences, with the hopes of showing people that they're not alone.

But the problem is, I don't know how to advertise. I currently only have 1 follower. I do share my posts on my Facebook, but what are some other ways to get my blog "out there"? I use Google plus. I'm pretty new to the blogging world, and I'd really appreciate some advice!

Thank you SO VERY much.
