Where do you advertise your photoblog?

[sem]

Most of my visitors are from photoblog-community.com or photoblogs.org

When you are in the HOT photoblogs - list at photoblogs.org you will have a lot of visitors, a "few" more when you are at the startpage of photoblogs.org :-).

There are also a few visitors per day from this forum, and there are visitors from google.

Thanks kilmin_a_s for this nice listing!

Most new visitors on my site are coming via photoblogs.org, blimage.de, london.photobloggers.org and also from this forum. Some people seem to find my blog on google.

Which demands the question how do you get into the HOT photoblogs?

I think social bookmarking sites like Netscape and digg can give very good traffic along with stumbleupon.

StumbleUpon is a great traffic source.
At least for me. :-)

How to get into the hot photoblogs list:

One person bookmarks your blog at photoblogs.org
-> your site will be in the hot-list for a day or two
-> people who check the hot-list will visit your site, look at your work and maybe like it
-> some people who like your work will add a bookmark
-> more bookmarks will help your site to be in the hot list a bit longer and maybe get into the top 10
-> even more people vist your photoblog
-> and so on

The problem might be the initial bookmark.
Good luck!

p.s. I think photography and photoblogging is not about ranking or being in any hot-list.
If other people like my images, that's great if not, I don't care.

Me too. My question was more about promoting my site, so I can show my work to more people who will appreciate it.

I started my photoblog in college and I still am so my photoblog is hosted on school servers. I started it because I began to take interest in taking photos mostly for memories type deal not for art or to look good. Most of the people who knows my photoblog are friends. Although as time passed on, I got more and more into photography and even started to enter my stuff in PhotoFridays. No noteworthy just yet but it's ok I'm still much of an amateur to this as the next guy is.

So far I get my hits from friends and mostly PhotoFridays as well. Hopefully I'll be able to move my stuff to another server and make it a bit more presentable. Anyway, shameless plug in the end : JETCs Photolog
