Lee Odden has released a list of things that he dislikes about blogs and you would rather check this out and make sure you are not doing these mistakes on your blog.
Personally I am enjoying rewarding people who comment on my blog by disabling the ‘Nofollow’ tag.
The new version of Semiologic has been released and if you want to get your blog updated, we can do so for a nominal $25 per blog. If you are not aware of Semiologic, it is a powerful blogging and content management system based on the Wordpress engine that includes several SEO enhancements and other tools to really add pizzas to your blogging.
You can write to the address provided in the Semiologic support center or write to me at arun AT ebizindia DOT com. Please remember that you should not try to get a pirated copy of Semiologic installed or updated as we will verify every order as being one from a genuine Semiologic customer.
Enjoy your blogging!
While it is important to submit to blog directories for increasing your link popularity, another important avenue that gets missed easily is RSS directories. Here’s how you can do this easily…
Almost all the blogging systems including Wordpress have an associated RSS feed that gets updated whenever you post to the blog. For Wordpress, the feed can be found at http://www.domain.com/wp-rss2.php or http://www.domain.com/blog/wp-rss2.php as the case may be. Now search for RSS directories and you will find quite a large list of good directories.
One such RSS directory is here. You should generally browse to the category that most closely matches the topic of your site and then click on ‘Add your site‘. Enter the required information and submit.
While some of the directories will include your site right away, most of them have human editors who review your site before inclusion. Therefore, it is a waste of time to submit junk sites because they will get rejected anyway.

Michel Fortin made a great post on ‘How to make money with blogs‘, wherein he has summarized some cool ideas about making money with blogs. Here are some of the highlights and take-ways:
I quote a para from this post which I really loved:
Because the beauty of this process is that people can get a taste of who you are and what you offer (and how people react to you, based on their comments as well as their thoughts expounded on social networking sites when your blog is dugged or del.icio.us’ed), which builds awareness, trust, credibility and, above all, relationships with your subscribers.
Read Michel’s full post here and check out the 7 methods you can make money blogging.
P.S. Michel also uses the Semiologic blogging system
You might know that I maintain a blogging page on Squidoo, where I discuss stuff about blogging. Squidoo is a prominent Web 2.0 type site and is considered an authority by the leading search engines. That makes a link from a Squidoo page very valuable for the search engine rankings of your blog. Here’s how it will help you…
If you maintain a cool blog on a topic (no casino, drugs, pharmacy, porn, hate stuff please - that will be deleted soon enough), I invite you to add your blog to the list at the bottom of my Rentablogger Squidoo page and get a valuable one-way link to your blog. Once you have submitted your blog, do not forget to vote on your link to make it move higher.
A more popular page will add more value to your link, so you should rate that page by clicking on 4 or 5 stars at the top and by submitting your comments in the feedback section. You are not strictly required to link to the above site, though a link back will be highly appreciated.
Michel Fortin recently reactivated the old argument on whether to have the "nofollow" tag on the comments, which is the default setting with Wordpress blogs. He has switched to "dofollow", which will pass the Google PageRank to the commentor’s website. This plugin comes built in with the Semiologic blogging system.
I sincerely hope this invites more people to make quality comments on his posts as they are rewarded to make a good post. Spammers beware - he is also using plugins which zap the spam comments even before he gets to see those.
My recommendation:
