One good tip to increase traffic is to think ahead - quite literally.
At different times of the year, search volume spikes markedly in different categories. There are the obvious times of year, like Christmas, when people search for gifts, or Valentines Day, when people search for flowers and chocolate.
You can use Google's Trends tools to do some research.
For example:
http://www.google.com/trends?q=roses...ate=all&sort=0
Those of you who can get news items into Google's universal results, via blogs and feeds, can do well following this strategy.
Darren at Problogger has quite a good post on this:
