My answer from here—
1. Write interesting, useful, and original posts.
2. Write a lot of them.
3. Get other people to link to the posts they find to be the most interesting and useful.
4. Write some more interesting and useful posts so the people that click on your friends’ links stay to read more, come back later to read more, and link their friends to you.
5. Repeat from #1 as often as possible.
My answer from here—
Who is your audience? Is it mostly people you know, like friends and family, or are you hoping to attract a much larger following? The first thing to do might be to figure out who is reading your stuff, figure out what they think is interesting, and write about it.
If what you’re writing is (by your standards but especially theirs) “very boring,” more of it doesn’t necessarily make it better. It has to be something that they want to read – which is usually going to be something informative, or amusing, or something they can identify with. Something they can’t get elsewhere and something worth reading – like a reward for tuning in.
Good luck!
