In addition to what's been said above I think part of your problem may be your insistence on 100% handwritten blogs. That's not a bad thing, on the contrary, but I don't think many stick out that route very long. It seems to be all about loading up with a few feeds and letting the blog run on autopilot these days.

You need to give it time, build up your own reputation and let your site mature.

You've gotten nothing but sound advice in this thread
I started two new directories this month, one is a toplist that I'm already asking for trades and have recieved 3 so far, the other is a feed aggregator (something like what you have built) it has nothing but sponsor feeds in it. I just looked 299 feeds have given me 6,000+ posts.
I've had the domain online for over a year (just a one page bs site) with no links going to it, Unique Visitors last month 60, Number Of Visits 114, so far this month Unique Visitors 386 Number Of Visits 861
Based on my other aggregator it will take about three months for it to get 500+ Uniques a day (from the search engines) with no trades, that's when I plan to start asking for submissions with a link back.
If your looking to make a fast buck I think your best bet is to start making Free Sites.

You now know more about my business than my wife

Problem with feed splogs is there would be batches of new posts with the same exact content added simultaneously every time a certain sponsor feed updated.

You're right, it does sound that way. What I meant to say is that I wanted it in a similar position. On the links page, under an appropriate heading. And I wasn't really expecting any link trades with high traffic sites, I imagined I'd probably mostly be getting trades from newer sites.

If a high traffic site wants to link trades I don't really mind much where my link is as long as it's not the same color as the background.
