How to increase my Noobpreneur.com blog readership by tenfold in 2009?
I'm planning to increase the readership of my blog, http://www.noobpreneur.com by tenfold, as my blogging New Year resolution.
The blog's content is unique and the traffic is about 300-350 visitors a day.
However, in term of RSS subscription measured by Feedburner, my blog is a bit pathetic, especially considering the traffic counts.
Noobpreneur.com is currently having around 60 feed subscribers. So my target would be 600 or something.
Any how-to advices that already tested and true are much appreciated!
Thanks guys!
You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

1. Post comments on others' entrepreneurial blogs, along with your blog's URL.
2. If some of them have trackbacks, be sure to include links towards their posts in your own posts. That way, your blog will appear on theirs'.
3. Befriend some of them and add their site's URL on a links section. If they are nice, they'll reciprocate.
One note: don't implement all those ideas that you'll come across, don't clutter your blog with unnecessary junk, otherwise you'll only be seen as a try-hard. Sometimes you just need to do less and simplify what you already have, in order to get better results.

Develop a Noobpreneur title, post the articles on the websites or develop the actual content to be sent out with their newsletters. Good luck!

Thanks for the tips... Any feed readership count increase tips?
You are already implementing most of the advices on feed readership, that's not the issue. As I said, you should try simplifying your page instead.
Put only one RSS button on the front page, but put one a bit bigger, "above the fold". Put a medium sized RSS button on the footer of your post, saying something like "did you like this post? you can get the latest posts via rss..." Most importantly, make room on the page so that a visitor can "breathe".
