it amazes me that people expect 1000s of hits from blogs directories, these aren't tgps, mine's number 2 on google for "adult blogs", if you have a decent regularly updated blog what better way there is for a surfer to find and bookmark you
do you require a link in the sidebar of my blog?

my issues is with 1000 blog directories all requiring a link in the sidebar, and my link on their site eventually ends up on a page buried in the site, no one ever sees it and it has no pr and no traffic

yours may be different, sure, but at least with social bookmarking if my story is good it stays near the front page

since blogging is such an "active" format of promotion,p blog directories need to step it up a notch and make their directories more "active" instead of just links on a page

ideas:
-rss powered front page that updates hourly with new articles in the rss feeds of blogs in it's directory
-traffic in/traffic out (trading per day).....I send you traffic so I get traffic back and vice versa
