Aside from the more obvious things, like making your blog visually appealing, advertising (or blog-vertising) can be key to drawing in more traffic.
Facebook and many other sites offer pay per click advertising, that can really help target your market. On facebook in particular, you can indicate what demographics, and even location you would like your ad to reach. So you can narrow down your ad to your area, and the age group of the people you are targeting.
Google Adwords takes a bit more finesse, but there are ways to narrow down your ad on there as well to target only your specific needs.
And in a more direct, easy to handle sense, it pays to pay for advertising. Does your local mommy’s group have a website? Many different aspects can all go into searching for online advertising. If you are hunting for teen markets, google local teen clubs, most of them have websites independant of their schools. Then simply email and ask if you can post an ad.
These are just a few of the internet based advertising ideas that are out there, they all draw in varying amounts of traffic. The trick is to turn that traffic into clients.
