Thank you for taking the time to check out my writing, and for your kind words. I appreciate your input and suggestions. I was so interested in the content that I fell into, that I didn’t even notice the date. It was the kind of information I needed. I’ll be checking back from time to time.

Thanks again,

Linda

I just left your marvelous blog. Great job!

Thank you for stopping by and sharing your thoughts. For someone looking to get found and gain more comments, getting “out there” is a great place to start. I do agree, plopping down comments just to be seen can hurt us more than help, especially if that’s the only reason we’re commenting.

With your blog not being a niche blog, I would suggest to continue what you’re doing; visiting other blogs you enjoy and sharing your thoughts.

Asking questions at the end of a post makes for a great ice breaker, as does establishing a presence on Twitter, Facebook or other social networking sites. Although some bloggers do get found quickly, for myself it wasn’t until I started commenting on other blogs and linking to great blog posts I was reading, that I began to get noticed.

One thing you’ll find is the bloggers who comment on this blog all have marvelous blogs so if you’re looking for a place to start, I’d suggest clicking on their names or the CommentLuv link and check them out.

I also noticed you commented on an older post. Although I don’t close comments and appreciate any comment I get, what I’ve found is by also commenting on the current post (if it’s something that moves you) the other bloggers who comment may read your comment and click on your link. I can’t guarantee it will drive more traffic to your blog, but it will help to get yourself in front of others as on most blogs the “action” is on the most current post.

I hope this helps and hope to see you again soon.

I’m glad I stumbled across your blog. I am trying to earn an audience. I have been blogging since September, and thanks to a statcounter, I know a few people are stopping by. To date I have had a total of 3 comments and a couple people responded to my email instead of commenting.

I invite people to comment, and often times ask a question or invite readers to relate a story or experience. I would really interact with people. My blog is not about any one thing specifically. I have pictures, recipes, coupon & grocery stores savings, musings about what we’ve been up to and links to other places I visit. I’ve tried to make it attractive and interesting, but apparently something is lacking.

I do post on other blogs when I enjoy what I’ve read/seen, have something useful or informative to say or ask a question. I don’t just plop down a comment on every blog just for the sake of “being seen”.

If you would like to check it out and give me some tips, or just say “hello”. That would be great.

Thanks a bunch, and I’ll keep reading here.

Linda

I’m looking forward to that 3 a.m. poem.
