1. Content is the king
We humans see a site while the search engines read the sites. The best you can do is to improve your contents.

Links are as important for your blog as references are for you. Get your blog linked from your own other blogs and sites. Ask your friends and family to link to your blog. Read other blogs and leave comments often. One referral from popular sites is more valuable than three from some vague one-page site.
3. Keep it clean
Don't even try to fool the search engines. The days of long and unrelated "keyword" meta-tags are over. Unrelated white keywords on white background just to fool the search engines can do you more harm than benefit.

Pretty images and an impressive Flash piece may make your blog look great but as far as search is concerned, the contents are immensely valuable. Don't forget to use tags such as "ALT" and TITLE" with your images.
