1) Treat building traffic to your free blog as seriously as if you were doing so for a site/domain you were paying for. You're not the only guy who slapped a few posts on a blogspot and did nothing else, then wondered, "hey, where's the traffic?" Put a traffic building plan together, then execute it.
2) Build two targeted keyword lists--one for SEO (long tail, low SEO comp, etc) and one for higher direct traffic (select keywords with above 20,000 monthly search volume, without regard for comp). Perform the usual onpage and offpage SEO using the 'SEO keywords' (with the higher volume kws sprinkled in as LSIs). Then do a lot of non-SEO tactics (forum comments, blog comments, video, social, etc) based on the higher volume kws, without regard for do-follow/no-follow status of the links. This way you get more search engine traffic, and quick direct link through traffic.
3) Get to know your two best P friends---properties and parasites. Create a Web 2.0 property for every SEO keyword that links to each blog webpage that is properly set up with onpage SEO. Then seek to rank each of the Web 2.0 pages in the top 50 or so, which should rank the site webpages higher per each keyword (even more so if the blog pages interlink to each other). If you dare add BH, also link parasite pages to the blog (pages like a youtube url, or other high authority domain Google will not penalize). Then massively blast each parasite url pointing to your blog, perhaps using redirects for added safety. Result should be a significant boost in the blog's ranking, with few or no penalties since the mass submits/spamming effort was applied to the parasite urls, not the blog url.
