Neil,
Just curious, what are you doing now? Your topic sounds like it would 
lend itself to an online magazine or article directory.

I "advertised" the blog on several directories, but I don't have a Facebook page, so that was the extent of my advertising. Working against me as well was the topic: pharmacology and toxicology (although I wrote it for a general audience).
