Connected Internet has written a great article entitled ‘The Do’s And Don’ts For Driving Traffic To A New Website’. The site author has singled out the options that would benefit new sites, more than just writing a generic list of steps a site owner can do.

The one I can resonate the most with is ‘Don’t Use A Naff Template’. I spent many a night trying to find a template I liked for One Tip A Day. I wanted something that would look nice and clean, which would also be easy to maintain as this is my first blog. I think this current template is about the 15th I’ve tried, but I’m finally happy so I can now concentrate on developing the readership and quality of the tips.

A summary of the ‘Dos And Don’ts’ Are listed below:

• Do Submit Articles To Aggregators
• Do Email Big Bloggers
• Don’t Use A Naff Template
• Do Ask For Advice
• Don’t Waste Your Time With Link Exchanges
• Do Write Comments - Lots of Them
• Do Make Buddies - There’s Safety In Numbers
• Don’t Waste Time With Blog Directories
• Do Add Your Feed To My Yahoo! And Google
• Do Leave Trackbacks
• Do Link To Bigger Sites
• Don’t Use Long Titles
• Do Add Tags To All Posts
• Do Keep Posting
