No matter what type of blog that you have, one of the best places that you can advertise your blog is to join a blogger forum. After all, everyone who posts there has a blog and thats the main subject. It’s a great place to meet other bloggers and to advertise your blog.
One great thing about blogger forums is the blog showcase or show-off-your-blog categories or forums where you can literally show off you blog, extract constructive criticisms from your fellow members helping you create better. In this way, you are also advertising your blog. Several good reasons why you should join blogger forums are provided by problogger, Darren Rowse.
There are quite a few blogger forums that you can sign up for on the Internet. Here are of the highly-trafficked and great blogger forums that can be potential sources of traffic.
1. Bloggeries lets you show off your blog to almost 2000 members (over 900 are active). You can also ask for a blog review and find lots of tools that you can use for your own blog.

Kontera, the leading provider of In-Text contextual advertising and information services for online advertisers, publishers, and users, is giving $25 bonus for publishers for every referred publisher.
Kontera has been a good online income generator for my blogs. I signed up as a publisher last December 2007 and have accumulated $59 earnings as of today. I started with only $0.2 average earning per day; not a good income provider you say. I sticked with it, however, because I see it as a potential income generator for my blogs. I signed up my three other blogs (my personal blog, my health blog and my medical and nursing student’s guide blog). My income substantially increased since then, reaching up to $2/day (not on a daily basis). My income now ranges from $0.5 to $2.00 per day. It’s not that much compared to my other income generator like Adsense but it augments to my daily income.

Recently, I posted about how Entrecard Credits (ECs) are becoming the “virtual money of the blogosphere.” You can buy some services through it like advertising to Problogger.net and John Chow, getting a new layout for your blog, pay for your hosting, etc.
There can be many ways on how you can earn ECs to purchase these great services. The conventional way is to drop your cards to several sites and getting advertisement from other users. But you need to spend most of your time to drop your cards (and get a card drops in return) and convince every potential advertiser to advertise on your blog. It takes time and effort. The trend now is to purchase and borrow ECs.
Where to borrow ECs?
The EntreBanker let’s you loan ECs, another brilliant idea from Mr. Biz Beacon. EntreBanker prioritizes the newcomers who are still in need to of ECs to launch their ad campaigns.
