With such a demise in good design-news type websites and such a proliferation of blogs etc spreading viewers very thin, what are effective ways to promote your personal sites these days?

what type of promotion are you looking for? general recognition from your peers or are you trying to raise awareness to attract potential employers?

I guess both!
Typically sites ala Newstoday would be for peer stuff which can be great, and good exposure.
Im unsure if enough potential employers check peer sites and such so yeah i guess theres 2 parts to promotion as you said.
Note, im not interested in knowing about 'advertising' yourself but more general - even hits - promotion.

swap links
I get a lot of traffic just from people who have linked my site

How do you find people to to swap links with and how particular/strategic should you be in your choice? You wouldnt want to spam your addy out and upset people?
As i said, portals used to be an easy way to 'swap links' or get your site out there but theyre not nearly as effective as they used to be (especially locally).
