The best way to promote a blog is letting those know who will find a blog useful that the blog exists.   Follow these steps;

1) Write yourself a press release introducing your new blog and letting others know of the benefits of your blog.  When doing this make sure to make it news worthy and not a complete advert for your blog.  Include a link to your blog in the press release.  PRWeb is worth visiting.

2) There are hundreds of free blog sites allowing you to leave comments and promote your blog.  DO NOT overspam as this is unconstructive, annoying and will get you the wrong type of press.

3) There are some services and freelance services out there where they will promote your blog for you as they have done these thousands of times before for under $100.

4) Let your family, friends and other interested that you have a blog.

5) Keep your blog updated on a regular basis, and allow news crawlers through RSS and other means to crawl your site.

I hope this helps,

Best way is to go to as many forums as you can for people who would have interest in your blogg and leave a link for it.

If you think back to the bloggs you have read, you might find most were links from a forum or newsgroup you were reading and thought they might be interesting.

Leave it on related forums and word of mouth will take it forward from there for you. As a matter of interest, what is the link to your blog, might be something I would find interesting and now curiosity makes me want to see it :)
