I just started a blog (link is in my profile if you really want to find it, because linking to it via this question smacks of pandering and self-service) and want to build up a readership.

Besides writing good content, often, what else can I do to pimp it to the world, without adding like a million buttons all over every post urging viewers to “facebook this! twitter this! counterblog this! reddit this!” and without coming off as a crazed spammer?
