| Blogging: 9 Ways to Get More Juice From Blog Comments |
|
By John T Pratt
Would you like to get more juice from your blog comments? I'm about to show
you how simple that can be!
The greatest thing about blogs is that they're interactive. You write posts,
and people can leave comments and carry on a conversation right there on the
same page. Blogs are like part web site, part forum. Sometimes the post comments
are more interesting than the post itself! The more traffic you get the more
comments you receive, and a lot of people ask online, "when will I start getting
traffic on my blog?". Well, my rule of thumb is usually most blogs go from
obscurity to a steady flow of traffic at about the 6 month / 100 post mark. This
is enough time to be through a Google update or two, and with 100 posts indexed
in the search engines, you've got 100 shots at getting found in online search. I
believe every post you write is like a little deposit in the search engine bank.

Everybody's a-Twitter now, it seems. In restaurants, waiting in line at the bank, even at the movies, somebody has a smart phone in hand recording the minutiae of the day in 140 character increments. With Twitter, one of the most powerful social media platforms available, people can receive and disseminate information quickly and briefly - it abbreviates the news while we can zip through headlines and direct our attentions elsewhere. One has to wonder with micro-posting networks like Twitter and Facebook, do we need blogs anymore? The answer is a resounding yes.

| Blogging: Define Expert, Please |
|
Author:Lorelle VanFossen
I had to laugh hysterically (and groan) today when someone described a blogger as “world-reknown expert on WordPress”. The blogger had been blogging for 4 months. I know personally that they had no PHP, WordPress, or web design experience prior to beginning blogging. Now that they have the title “expert”, there is no telling who will believe that claim.

huge
