One of the best ways to build a community online is by creating video. The video can be instructive, fun or just silly. Let everyone see who you are and what you are about as well. Let people get to know you by seeing you.
Also, building a community online is done through many ways, check out more post on building a community online here.

I thought the video was pretty good, but I’m curious where you want to go with this “comments = community” thing; so far you’re aiming it at the blogger mantra of “content is king.”
You might want to talk about how readers of Little Green Footballs and DailyKos and really any large blog that’s been around a while clearly know each other and talk to each other in the comments. But here’s the thing: I don’t see much of that interaction, if at all, on newer sites. And by “newer” I mean sites that are 3 years old in some cases.
If you want to really build community online, get help from offline. Bring your family and friends into your blog, esp. if much of the content is impersonal. You gotta start somewhere, and the links you have irl are hugely important. You’re ultimately aiming to make any community to generate as real as it can be.

That is absolutely right… Ashok you provide a great example of why comments are important! Thanks for the constructive criticism! I’ll address then either in an edit or new post.
What I am trying to get across is yes it is extremely difficult to build a community, but if you can get one going then you have a significant advantage. Your blog will be unique for many bloggers. I will address this more thoroughly in an additional post. Thanks Ashok.
