Tell your friends and family about the page and if they have pages on the web ask them to create links to yours. 
<p><b>See who is visiting</b> - If you want to see where your visitors are coming from, you can just look at the server logs if you have access to them, or you can add a <a href="http://dmoz.org/Computers/Internet/Web_Design_and_Development/Authoring/Web_Counters/">web counter</a> to keep track.

						<br>
						<b>Write about yourself</b> - Many times when viewing a page visitors will want to know who created the content they're reading.  You can include a little information about yourself and why you created it.<p>
						<b>Include contact info</b> - It is a good practice to get in the habit of to have a clearly visible way for a visitor to contact you.  That way if they have a question they won't have to scour the site just to find it.<p> 
						<b>Keep the page small</b> - Even though you may have a high speed connection there are lots of people who are still dialing up to access the internet.  Be considerate of the low speed users and it will make the page load even faster for those that do have a better connection.<p>
						<b>When was this updated?</b> - It makes a different when content was written and on the web things change quickly.  Giving a visitor an easy way to tell when you last updated the content is very helpful.
