I ask because I've been linking a lot on your blog and a few others since reading this post, and I don't want to wear out my welcome with the blog owners!

Hey, is this an inside conversation? S...@ Winston<br /><br />Hey, is this an inside conversation? Since many of us are following this thread by email, could you kindly not make it a private conversation and fill us in (otherwise, you may wish to e-mail John). Smile !<br /><br />Are you hinting at the crass motivation to just get numbers? If so, I think we all agree with that embarrassing fact - yet it is part of reality when it comes to effectively communicating in the long run, no? The question is how do we balance it with message. And I think John emphasized the solution, "Substance".<br /><br />Sorry, if I am misreading your comment but it was a bit terse.Sabio Lantzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12963476276106907984noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21219785.post-30089151613963716742009-12-19T06:09:47.268-05:002009-12-19T06:09:47.268-05:00But all kidding aside, your post is very revealing...But all kidding aside, your post is very revealing, John.<br /><br />Inadvertently, you have explained a large part of your motivations in the "early days".Emanuel Goldsteinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02653303041185240250noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21219785.post-44899095915996351272009-12-19T06:08:29.897-05:002009-12-19T06:08:29.897-05:00John, you say "don't moderate comments if...John, you say "don't moderate comments if you can."<br /><br />Sorry, John, but we don't want that to happen.Emanuel Goldsteinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02653303041185240250noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21219785.post-23623580542580620122009-12-18T07:41:01.836-05:002009-12-18T07:41:01.836-05:00Sabino, yes, good suggestion.

This way people can comment and then comment again and again as others respond. This generates more hits as they do so. More hits means being ranked higher in lists of good blogs in your category of expertise. And getting ranked in these lists gets you noticed more. And if people feel like they contribute they will stay longer on your blog rather than move on in a few days or weeks.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21219785.post-70220363143956099882009-12-17T20:31:45.463-05:002009-12-17T20:31:45.463-05:00John, when you say "don't moderate",...John, when you say "don't moderate", do you mean don't censor or don't participate or just what?<br />Thanks !Sabio Lantzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12963476276106907984noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21219785.post-18614225686222116432009-12-17T01:40:38.569-05:002009-12-17T01:40:38.569-05:00I say without shame that my posting a comment here...I say without shame that my posting a comment here is motivated by my desire to have people visit my blog. Consider it my taking your good advice. <br /><br />I am an agnostic with theistic proclivities. Part of me still holds on to the idea that there's a god, and I'm not sure why. Functionally I'm an atheist; that is, I don't pray, consider what any god has to say about how I conduct my life, or look to a holy book for guidance, wisdom or cosmology. My life, pragmatically speaking, is "a-theistic": without god. <br /><br />I used to be a Christian, and a minister and an apologist as well. Ironically, Christian apologetics served to push me towards rejecting Christianity. Still, I have this theistic tendency or feeling I haven't been able to shake. Maybe that's part of the process. I'm curious to read your thoughts, given your own background.Budhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09030735640759238747noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21219785.post-34722043108745023742009-12-16T17:02:55.040-05:002009-12-16T17:02:55.040-05:00I wrote a post a while back outlining 3 resources ...I <a href="http://werxltd.com/wp/2009/09/09/how-to-grow-your-website-or-blog/" rel="nofollow">wrote a post a while back</a> outlining 3 resources I found to be particularly helpful when marketing my blog. <br /><br />My favorite was the 279 days to overnight success which emphasizes making long-term goals and strategies like posting regularly (like you mentioned in your post).<br /><br />Maintaining a posting schedule has been one of the hardest things I've done so far in marketing my blog but also one of the most rewarding as the traffic gains, while not enormous, are steadily increasing.<br /><br />Anyhow, thats my .02Wes Widnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14271594274004665723noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21219785.post-6751510470669777792009-12-16T14:40:51.278-05:002009-12-16T14:40:51.278-05:00Yes, Chris, I remember the Blog wars (with fond?) ...Yes, Chris, I remember the Blog wars (with fond?) memories.
