Okay...now I've got a "BLOG" but how do I get folks to come to it?

[KoKo]

:shrug: I've got some rudimentary thing up ...and haven't decided yet on my final "skin" (I had to Google to figure out what that was) but DU Admins gave many selections so I tried several and ended up with one I thought I'd try.

I just posted my recent posts on there that folks didn't reply to in great numbers...I linked a couple of other DU'ers "Journals" giving me a start to do "cross linking" and I gave James Wolcott a "tip-o-the Hat" in my Blog Roll.

I've got something up there.....and believe me I'm so clueless that it's amazing I could do what I did....

But, how do I get folks to come? Do I need to learn "Animated gif's" and that kind of stuff? I know the terminology but the practice in making my BLOG really catchy that folks would want to visit is beyond me...so far.

Do I need to post Nudie Males? G-Strings dancing? Personal Angst?

WHAT? I know my Blog needs more work...and it's a good opportunity for me to learn to be more creative...but what if I learn and STILL no one comes?

Do I need to put a SIGN OUT saying.... "COME TO MY BLOG/JOURNAL...I'M CLUELESS AND YOU WON'T GET COOL GRAPHICS...BUT I'm WORKING ON IT?" I haven't seen anyone actually "Hawking their Blog" like selling things at a Flea Market...but maybe I just am not clued into the KOOL GUYS who know all this stuff? (No one would ever call ME a FUN DU'er..sadly I was born with a very serious nature.) :-(
I see our "Lounge Folks" are way ahead of me with lots of visitors and even though I "UPDATE" my Blog it never shows up as "updated" or new?

Where do I go from here. ??? :dilemma: :banghead:
