What about simply writing a press release? Contacting some relevant reporters? Getting to know some locally and/or nationally, and what's killer is if you can make the AP wire. I'll take the AP wire over the front page of DIgg any day. I've found that press releases quite well. Make it professional, pretty it up, target it correctly, and you'll be reaching lots of new readers, customers, clients and fans.

This is not spam or fly by commenting--but a genuine and honest relationship. As Guy Kawasaki would say the model is , "more eharmony, not hot or not." Second, being original + funny allowed James Kotecki to get coverage on the frontpage of YouTube, then CNN, and now he works as a video blogger for the Politico in DC. Great post!

Thanks for all the great feedback. @KC Since you run a sports blog, you can get a lot of exposure by writing articles for the Bleacher Report... http://bleacherreport.com/ In fact, they even allow you to post partial articles that lead back to your website. Hope this helps! Wow! Thanks for all the great feedback.

I am a little bit cautious, as a good potato chef should be, about the odds of a small blog actually being helped by these tips. I would think, and I do think on occasion, that for most bloggers getting on a local tv station or in their local newspaper is not just more likely...but in the long run probably more useful.
