I am a strong advocate of good content. If the content is good, people will read it, refer it, recommend it. Your traffic will definitely grow. But it is neither that simple nor that quick that suddenly, your site will be indexed by google and you’ll start receiving thousands of visitors overnight. So once you have a couple of decent posts, start off with some promotion. You have a good product, so there is no harm in telling the people about it. To start off, I recommend smaller steps. Don’t straight away jump at SEO and paid advertisements. Instead, for first couple of months, follow these small steps, while keeping focus on adding quality contents:
1. Participate in forums
2. Ask questions, start threads.
3. Post decent, meaningful comments that provide value to readers.
4. Post funny, interesting comments.
5. Read other blogs and learn from their strengths.
6. Be generous in commenting on other blogs.
7. Include a link of your blog in your email signature.
8. Take full advantage of services like entrecard and blogexplosion.
Just start with these small steps. Don’t overload yourself. There is plenty of time to learn about SEO. Remember, SEO is really valuable when you have sufficient high quality content.

Content is not the King. To me, Content is just a Queen. Good content that provides value and get people to spread around is Real KING.
Many websites have content and they update frequently too. But that doesn't get them lost of traffic, readers or sales. To be success, the content on our blog need to be something people like to talk about, like to link to and people get value from it.
You have written a great post! I'm the guy who always support content!
