Blogging Advice Needed

I am new at blogging and I could use some advice. Yesterday I created a blog at: http://champagneestates.blogspot.com/</A> I just checked to see if any comments had been posted and there is nothing. I am not sure if the lack of comments is due to the content posted or if I missed a step in the blogging process....any suggetions?

We actually launched a blog this week and just like you we haven`t gotten any comments yet. Don`t be discouraged though, as I was building our blog I did quite a bit of research and found out that typically you need somewhere between 8 and 20 posts to start building momentum.
I`d also recommend utilize some of the social bookmarking websites like del.icio.us and reddit.com to build your intial traffic.
I made a blog entry about some of the things I learned in my research phase, perhaps it can be of some assistance. You can find it here:

Good luck.

Thank you! You are providing such wonderful information....keep it coming!
This blog was my attempt to incorporate tech-friendly ways of marketing. Plus the blog seemed like a fun way to engage people in a dialog. I am currently in the process of building a "team" with another Realtor so right now I have two websites: my site and the team site. I will have to check to see if one or both will allow me to link the blog as either a blog page in the website or as a URL link to the blog.
Not only am I new to SUN, but new to blogging as well. I was so relieved to read that I am not the only one who felt kinda lost out there in cyberspace! The technical aspect is such a pain for me, as I almost kind of understand how it works but seem to mess things up a lot! My personal blog seems to work just dandy, but the business one is another story. I will perservere, however, and take some of the advice I see here.
Andrew and JP, thanks for your information, it will be very helpful for me and many others I`m sure.
