I would also recommend commenting on other blogs (Hey, wait a sec...) and leaving your URL or a permalink to a relevant post. Also, do what you can to get other sites to pick up your URL or RSS feed. I get a good number of hits from <a href="http://www.wiredjournalists.com" rel="nofollow">Wired Journalists</a> and other blogs/sites. Posting links on Twitter also helps drives traffic.
