1. Write, but write your best. Don't worry about people who post daily. Unless you can establish yourself that way with themes for each day, don't sweat it. The main thing that will keep readers coming back is when you pop up on their blog-role, they know you'll have something substantial to say.
2. Of course, be kind to everyone. That's a given. I doubt you'll have a problem with that. But, most importantly, interact with the bloggers. If new readers come to your blog go to theirs, read their latest entry (if you like their blog subscribe) and keep them coming back.
3. I advertise my blog on my Twitter, really. If you have one, you should start doing that. Especially if you have a good following of people on there--just friends can count as a good following. Some comments and readers is better than none. It is what social networking like Twitter is actually for, anyway.
4. Talk to people and make friends here. You would not believe how many followers I got on my blog just by talking to people.
It all takes a lot of dedication and sometimes you won't have time for it, but you have to keep at it when you can.
Trust me, if you start now, it won't seem as daunting and hard.
