Blogging...

So can anyone tell me how to make blogging more effective? Is it really just a way to keep a journal or give out load comments on things that bug or interest you?

I guess, i haven't done this for some time since I wasn't sure what I should be doing to increase the use or visits to my blog.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

This is a photo blog, meant to increase your exposure as a photographer, right?

My advice, for what it's worth:

Post a LOT more frequently, with a lot of different types of photography. Comment on the photos in a way that is interesting to photographers and non-photographers. (Give technical AND personal info about the photos. Show your personality as a photographer and in real life.)

Find other blogs that interest you and do posts highlighting those and linking to them. As I understand it, in the blogging world there's an unwritten "you scratch my back, I'll scratch yours" mentality. So hopefully other bloggers will return the favor by linking to you.

Hope that helps...good luck.

What do you mean by "and do posts highlighting those and linking to them?"
