I've listed my 2 blogs in a few online blog directories and online blogging communities, I was looking for some more good ones. I know that a lot of them are topic specific, I've got one blog that is about natural health, eco-friendly tips, green living and charity reviews. The other blog is about working from home, newbie how-to's and tips, GPT and site reviews and everyday home tips. What blog directories do you belong to? (my blog links are on my profile)

I have a few recommendations. You have to be on Technorati. I get as much traffic from there as I do from my next 6 sources combined. Just make sure you tag your posts really well. I use BlogCatalog as my social networking spot for blogging. They have a great forum over where a newbie or a non-tech person can get a lot of help. Then there are MyBlogLog for stats and BlogFlux for stats and a pinger AND an e-mail address scrambler so that you can have a "Contact Me" button that doesn't get picked up by spam-bots. These last two aren't great for socializing but they do have a good tools.

Thanks for all your helpful suggestions. I am a new blogger and trying to figure out how to get some traffic to my site. I also need to learn how to post a lot more stuff, like links and photos. You have really pointed me in some interesting directions here. This is what I really enjoy about MyLot. People on here have so much knowledge about the Internet, blogging, and so many things.

I know exactly what you mean, I've learned so much here at myLot. If you need it, I've actually just written a post in my blog about getting traffic to blogs and I wrote a guide for getting started working online, the links to all of that is on my profile page here.
