I have compiled a short list to help bloggers decide what they should do when they are not in the mood to write.- Clean up your layout: Arrange all the widgets properly to give your blog a professional/personal look.
- Get rid of all the useless widgets that just waste space.
- Add appropriate tags to the posts to make navigation easy.
- Add some navigation links on the homepage that are most important to your blog (ie. home, moneymaking, marketing, seo and blogging on my blog).
- Get RSS feed.
- Add an email subsciption box to make it easier for your readers to subscribe.
- Add a feed counter to show-off!
- Submit few posts to social bookmarking sites.
- Check your Technorati account to see if you got any new backlinks.
- Get a Technorati account if you don't have one already.
- Look for link exchanges.
- Get a Who'samungus widget to know how many users are online.
- Get a good looking logo for your blog instead of just plain text on the header.
- Add a voting widget.
- Check that all of your main links are working.
- Read other related blogs just to see what your competition is upto.
- Leave some comments on other blogs.
- Post about your posts on other forums.
- Read posts on famous blogs and get inspired.
- Write a post about what to do when not blogging :)

But don't put the feed counter up until you have over 100 subscribers, otherwise it might steer people away.
I think 50 subscribers above is a good number to show.
In addition, I think link exchange should be made only to blogs with the same niche topic. Otherwise, search engines will hardly count them.
great tips you have here. how i wish i am like you who blog to help people who are in need of education of the proper way of blogging. happy posting and keep it up!
