It is important that bluffing be a part of your game but be carefull not to overdo it like some people do. Betting on draws, and making continuation bets after raising pre-flop are both forms of bluffing that everyone needs to have. I agree with alot ofo what storm said, however, it is also important (crucial) to know your opponent. Whereas his suggestion of keep firing at the pot may work against a TAG player it won't work against a calling station that will call all the way down to the river with bottom pair. You need to know what kind of player you are trying to bluff. This is an important aspect to bluffing that is often overlooked.
Also, it is important to know what your table image is. Are you showing alot of bluffs? Are you winning alot of hands without showdowns (what your cards were is not important since the rest of the table does not know what you were winning with)? These kind of images might cause someone to call you with a marginal hand when they might otherwise fold.
In other words there are alot of factors involved when making a bluff, not just pushing all-in with nothing and hoping your opponent doesn't have anything.
