Hi everyone! I am new to this site

Hi,
I am new to this site. i have been writing a blog but am having problems with generating traffic to my site. I am averaging 1-3 people a day. Yes, it is that low. I need tips that have worked for other bloggers. I am really unfamiliar with SEO. Not sure how RSS works and how to make it work for me. I see other posts that have 60,000 or more visitors. I want to learn how to do this. I am not afraid of the work needed, but I joined to learn how to get these results. Adsense has turned me down. Any advice will be much appreciated. Please feel free to visit my blog and tell your friends about it. Writinggoddessmelanie at blogspot

Thanks in advance,
