Comments Don't Matter? Think Again.

Marcus here. If you don't know Problogger, you should. It's true that he's more into the business side of blogging. That just means sometimes he gets pretty technical about the direct marketing, money making side of social media. It can be a little overwhelming.

From time to time, we'll be referring to content on his site and a few others to help you blog better. For example, we think you should watch "How Leaving Comments On Blogs Drives Traffic to Yours." Don't worry about the bits you don't understand when you watch this video. And don't worry about installing CrazyEgg (though I did to run a test on where people click at GoodWordEditing.com while I'm on vacation).

Right. So that is your hint to go over to GoodWordEditing.com and click somewhere. Be part of the experiment. You know you want to.

I would be ashamed of self-promotion like that, but really, I have no shame. Besides. How can we help you learn to do this stuff, unless we know how to do this stuff too?

So watch the video. Learn about what makes a good comment. Then go and do likewise throughout the network! Gordon, Chris, and I will do our best to be right alongside you. At least, I'll be there when I get back from my family roadtrip.

Remember, we've got a lot of blogs here--over 150 now! And we need everyone to serve each other with encouraging comments and trackback links!

Here's that video:
