This is an interesting article that I picked up from Newsday.com.  I imagine it was easier a couple of years ago.  Maybe the secret is to first to try to write good stuff and write well about other's stuff, then take it from there.
The good news about blogging, as we showed you last week, is that you can set up a free account at Google's blogger.com and in about four minutes create a megaphone that can reach 300million Internet users worldwide.
 
The bad news is there are 3million bloggers ahead of you on the path to fame and maybe even fortune. Most are delighted to get a couple of hundred daily visitors, and few reach the rarefied realms of The Daily Kos (upwards of 500,000 visits per day) or Glenn Reynolds' Instapundit.com, (200,000). According to NZ Bear's The Truth Laid Bear traffic analysis site (www.truthlaidbear.com/ TrafficRanking.php), only about 300 sites garner as many as 1,000 visitors a day.
