This assumes you have readers in the first place. It's very difficult to build any kind of audience without promotion, especially in the beginning.

- jamesbritt 16y agoOh, sure. The question is how best to get those readers. I'm one of those who do not respond well to blatant prodding for mindless promotion. I've some bookmarklets for posting things on friendfeed and HN, and use them when a site is interesting. Maybe those buttons work well with others. But will they create the kind of audience you want? Does that even matter when you're just trying to get some initial attention?
