Pretty much what everyone said. Bring something original that no one has. Try not to spam your link everywhere >.< People hate spammers and it often goes over looked.
There are sites that give you an opportunity to share your site with the community, this is usually the larger forums. I would start there.
wow,
You do realize what your username on the forums is right? Thats slightly hypocritical isn't it?
Anyway, you should have good content on your site that will make people join. I went to your site and your main page simply tells about your blog and what it will do. What I would do if I were you was if the blog is going to be one of the main things of the site, make that the homepage because then you will show some content on the first page or do something to spice up your homepage with content. Also make all your pages look the same, it makes a site look good and brings everything together.
When I started my first site I was getting maybe 20-70 hits a day, I bumped that up to 1000+ unique users a day by simply going around and affiliating with sites that are more popular plus the tutorials I created and posted on Pixel2Life were getting lots and lots of views. So affiliating and getting different things out there on the internet are ways you can increase traffic to your site.
