I have a hypothesis as to what make fanfic(probably equally applied to novels and original works as well) popular:
The longer and more frequently your work update, the more popular it will be. By how fanfic.net works, it's very much hit driven.
So the advice is that you don't want to post chapters for your stories all at once, and the longer the work, the better. It means you can keep accumulating fans until you finish, which then partly spills over to your author profile.
This is the strategy I am taking with my fanfic as well. The interesting thing is that I haven't gotten over 700 pageviews much on the days I updated, but I am pretty sure if I don't update, I won't get as much traffic. I am pretty sure that traffic to my fanfic will increase as I steadily accumulate followers.
