Hi Phil,
There are tons of things you can do to increase traffic from an SEO/SERP perspective. The first, and most important, is focus on specific subjects and keywords so that the search engines know what you are blogging about and can begin to categorize your site for search engine purposes.
Also, all of those links you have are leaking page juice. It's O.K. if you are getting reciprocal links that neutralize the leak.
Installing the SEO-All-In-One Plugin will help with Wordpress duplicate content.
Do you have a Google sitemap?
Hope these suggestions help. Building up traffic is a long and arduous process, so if you believe that your site has something unique to offer to your target audience (you need to define this), then just keep at it.
