You can consult with them about forums and social bookmarking sites and get their point of view. If you have a network of bloggers who are related to your Niche, you can exchange tips and comments both on IM and on your blog. These same people in your IM network would be more willing to follow you on any other social network and from there on you can expand the network gradually.
