Sometimes, it is much easier to promote your personal blog for you know all what is included.

Bookmarking and guest blogging are a good way to promote your blog...

submit your blog to different blogging community/networks.

I always use google and wikipedia if I do not know what to do with a certain internet stuff. I suppose the self understanding of the process is the best way to get results. When something is completely unknown and is impossible to get, then ask forums where there are many gurus ready to help you

Blog directories are often advertized. Some of them are enough good to be worth of use.

Hi, i think you should add social bookmarking to your list, and maximize your content!

Social bookmarking and social networking is good for promote your site and traffic!

make a fan page on FB about your blog. join blogger groups. share a lot of things. and be original.
