From everything I've read blogging takes awhile to generate good amounts of traffic providing you are being pro-active and marketing your blog.

Look for blogs about blogging, learn from people who are teaching about blogging. Blog Tips to Help You Make Money Blogging - ProBlogger is one resource but there are many more.

Visit your favourite blogs and see what is common about them that makes them good. Then try and take the good elements and build them into your own blogging.

Put yourself in the shoes of a new visitor (who is likely to hang around for less than 10 seconds if they don't see something they like). How do you feel when you see an image that takes up most of your screen with little text. What is the thing that attracts most of my attention when I first see the site? Is that something that will keep a reader there, or have them move on after looking at it.

Also include links to the people who you get images from

Good luck
