It’s not a matter of “if you blog it, they will come,” but how to get noticed so readers can find you. The best way to market your blog is by being active in your online community.

If you don’t mind people calling you, give a cell phone or Skype number instead of your home phone number.
If you’re blogging for your business, include the company name, address, phone numbers, the URL for your company’s main website (if there is one), and so on.
