I was a "closet SEO" for years, meaning nothing about me being an SEO, or anything of the sort was online for anyone to read. Now, I've decided to create a blog. Not to sound egotistical or anything, but I know I am giving out really good info here, and I'm only getting a few hundred hits a day.
My strategy is going to be to wait it out until a lot of people discover it. I am submitting to major directories all over the net, and submitting my RSS feeds, but for the most part I'm just going to continue putting out good content until the people notice. Sometimes this is the best way.
Utilize directories, and social bookmarking sites as best you can. It's free, and just takes a little time. Eventually if what you are providing is good enough, people will come in waves. I have had clients who hired me for SEO, and I gave them counseling, directing their focus on the content, and watched them blow up. One of them literally had over 10,000 visitors a day after only being up a month and a half.
Focus on your content and making it best, and make sure your site is out there in the directories, and soon traffic will follow.
