    Question www.baltimoresushiblog.com Can use your feedback

    I recently started my own food blog Baltimore Sushi Blog and was wondering what you all thought. I haven't added adsense or anything like that to it yet and plan to monetize the site by selling ad space to local sushi restaurants once I get the right amount of traffic to the site.

    What do you all recommend for getting traffic once its developed more?

    I like how you've focused on a small niche.
    You need to build out the content of the site. The organization of the pages is ok- just needs more useful stuff on em. Menus, Maps, to restaurants would be good- too

    Also- work on your SEO. Your keyword selection process should include a good amount of locally oriented words.

    I like the layout.

    Review the sushi places near the Towson circle because a lot of high school and college kids go there. Make a list of the price of sake bombs at each restaurant and your traffic will explode.

    Best of luck

    Hahaha John I like you thinking. I've been to Sushi Hana many times and stumbled out of there in even worse condition.

    @trafficvault I completely agree with the idea towards including maps and I have more pictures of the venues that I have been to so far just yet to upload them off of the camera. I also like the idea for local oriented words. Thanks

    @Ben: It seems like a great topic to write about. btw I recommend fixing the permalinks of the website like how it was done with my other website WorkOut.PH - Free Workout and exercise Routines .

    On the bottom left, I think you added a tweet this post plugin. It left a text on the bottom.

    Trafficwise, It might be better exchanging links with food sites. And joining forums (join my website JoinMinds).

    Make it easy for people to share your content with others:
    AddThis - Social Bookmark & Feed Button Builder
    Button - TweetMeme

    Simple, powerful.

    I will be adding these two items to my site later on this evening. I was wondering what widgets people recommend for the sidebar?
