I wonder how to start pitching to people

I have two blogs with similar titles. This one has had nine views, six of them from the USA.
The other blog has no date in the title and no text of any kind. It is blank. It has has six views.
An independent candidate who sent a side of A5 to every voter got 84 votes in the last election, so nine views of a blog, mainly from outside the constutuency, would probably translate to less than 84 votes.

Advertisers have spent a penny on my blog! Or a cent anyway. The ad agency sometimes starts with a high pay rate and drops it with experience, so this pay rate won't go-on for ever.

Meet your canddiate: Robin Meltzer, Liberal parliamentary candidate for Richmond Park, on Thirsday 29th 7.30-9.00, All Saints Church Hall, East Sheen Aevnue, SW14 8AX. Put local or national issues to Robin Meltzer2015.01.29
I missed a chance to meet the unpaid liberal candidate in my constituency.
Work and visitors clashed.
This is a pity because the purpose of blogging about leaflets through the letterbox is to pitch the idea to voters and candidates that there should be a national social care budget.
At the same time, being the sort of person who blogs about leaflets through the letterbox, I'm a bit surprised to get either work or visitors so planning doesn't come naturally.

Revenue is now 15 cents but no longer rising much, so I have increased the size of adverts. Another tactic is to reduce the cost of any election leaflets. Paper costs about ½p an A4 sheet. Ink can be spread thinner:
