So if you are searching for HUGE traffic, press the back button. But if your blog has drought of traffic and you want some traffic to save your face then read the rest of the post. And yeah, i am talking about unsuccessful blogger here like I was some months back.1. Get some traffic by commenting on other blogs : Did I said some? Yeah, some traffic but enough to end the traffic drought in your blog. This is the easiest idea. Just go to some blogs like yours, read the post (you can skip this step. Just reading the title can give you the idea about rest of the post) and leave the comment with a link pointing to your blog. Just keep in mind that the blog is not that big blog as big bloggers don't have that time to knock on the every blog commenting them. This is not my new 'freshly brought from poultry' idea.

| | Best Drought Tolerant Garden Plants | | 2008-03-21 10:08:00 | | Most areas of the country are seeing a big change in the way we plant a garden. Water is becoming more and more a precious commodity and most gardeners are trying to find ways to plant a drought tolerant garden. Planting your garden with drought resistant plants doesn't have to be limited to flowers that look like bracken most of the year, or cacti and succulents that hardly speak to your need for a cottage garden. Many widely available plants are drought resistant or drought tolerant, and once established, need little or no supplemental water. As a bonus, many can be grown from seed for those of us who garden on a budget. Here are The Garden Glove's top picks for easy to grow from seed, drought tolerant plants.Black Eyed Susan (Rudbeckia )Yarrow (Achillea)Perennial Sunflower (Heliopsis)Poppies (Papaver)Evening Primrose (Oenothera)Fountain Grass (Pennisetum)Mallow (Malva)Purple Coneflower (Echinacea)Globe Thistle (Echinops)Tickseed (Coreopsis)Blazing Star (Liatris)Butterfly Bush (Buddl | | By: Home and Garden - Information on Gardening, Garden | | |

| | There's been a drought | | 2006-07-11 22:27:00 | | It's here! The long awaited fifth Podcast is now online. Sorry for the ridiculous delay (also applicable to blog posting) and try to remember the fragile artistic nature of your author whilst clicking that refresh button every day in fits of rage at my apparent lack of productivity re all things MüVs. I can hardly blame England's predictably short world cup campaign for this dry period but I reserve the right to appropriate a certain amount of blame towards my considerable efforts during this time of drought.For I, dear reader, have taken the noble step of reducing my intake of the clear stuff that is life's great mediator and replaced it with a diet mostly consisting of life's great inebriate-er, Ale.
