Add them and they will come… as you link to other peoples blogs, I have found that they will return the favor in many instances. . . That is the beauty of the incoming link on your dashboard . . .
Also, just go around to related blogs and post comments and articles with links back to you. . .
Check your SEO compliance and always meta your content.
Finally, take the time to list on the smaller search engines. They list you high in their results and it will help.
I am sure there are many better ways (free and pay) to get the results you are looking for, but those are my 2cents . . .
I must be old . . . I just realized there was not a cents key anymore on keyboards . . .LOL
