How can I get more people to read my blog?

I too started out with blogs. You first have to find your target market. Do you just want to get the word out or are you trying to make an income with the blog?

The more targeted your market the better your results of readers. My blog for example is about Usher's Syndrome which is a deaf/blind condition that I have. Because this is so specific it makes it easier for people to find it in the search engine.

Utilize social media as much as you can. Twitter, Facebook, Youtube, all of it. This is what will drive the traffic once you have a big fanbase.
