I actually thought those with the most interesting photos would get the most traffic...

I think adding a site to google would also help.

Not necessarily, some of the top photobloggers only post images that are interesting to me occaisionally. The things that keeps me going back to their sites is: 1. They're updated frequently, most have new photos every day, and at a bare minimum two or three new shots every week. 2. (This seems to be a natural consequence of point number 1). They post a shot that I find interesting, often enough to make me want to check the site regularly.

These two points could really apply to anywebsite. Update frequently. Show/tell me something interesting often enough to keep me interested.

There is always photoblogs.org - don't really know how much traffic you can get from there but i mean, yeah well almost everybody is on photoblogs.org hehe.

More tagging your blog people == more blog visitors and so on. You tag more then more people tag you and so on
Links on good pages are also great thing to be more popular.

Generaly - be more active in photoblog world then you will get more visitors (and your traffic will rise every month) :P

I have now successfully added my site to london photobloggers and blimage. Maybe I should also have a look at photoblogs.org as Vernon.Trent and Ubbe suggested.

After reading Dakwegmo post, I thought about what would make me visit a photoblog frequently and started a new thread about it here: http://forum.pixelpost.org/showthread.php?t=5002
