if you really want to go that route you have to think outside of the box traffic wise, use social media to drive traffic to it, unless you make the very rare site with amazing viral content like efukt.
While I don't have any big blogs that rank well for any huge keywords, I have several that rank very well for some specific keywords and longtail keywords. I'm not getting 100K traffic a day to them, but they are doing okay and slowly growing.

Getting any major keywords away from tubes would be a huge undertaking for any site not just a blog.
