Recently I’d be wondering how I can push my blog a little more and get some readers. I’ve had a few from Digg and nothing over 5 Digg’s on an article, but hey, at least it’s a start.
I emailed Leo at Zenhabits last week and he replied back to my email. It’s always a good feeling when someone who writes a particularly good blog will actually reply to your emails with some great advice, which is what I’ve got from him.
I’ve never considered myself a good writer, I guess that’s why I worked in Production at a newspaper and not a journalist! 
Firstly, I asked him if he had any articles that he’d written on Zenhabits that I could read about getting more traffic on my site and he replied with a link to his article on 10 Ways I got 4300 Subscribers in Three Months. He also linked me to ProBlogger.net which has some great beginners tips on blogging and how to make money from a blog. So it shows how you can go from starting a blog, through to making money off it being a hobby site.
Leo also writes freelance for other blogs, which is a good way to fine tune your blogging skills and get people looking at his site for similar articles. He also hooked me up with some web addresses of other Australians who have a good presence on the internet with their blogs. Those being NorthxEast.com and a link to where he freelances himself on Freelance Switch with some great articles on writing blogs.
Leo’s work has actually been quite inspiring, if you read the about page on Zenhabits you can see what he’s accomplished.
And yes, I’ll change my WordPress theme eventually Leo and stop using the same one as you, but it looks so nice!
As per some of the articles he’s made, use other bloggers are a resource to gain experience and exposure on the web if you want to make your blog popular.
