		<description>Thanks for your clarification. Now we know that neither of us likes to pander for comments! You bring up a good point that if it feels like work to go out and comment on other blogs you probably won&#039;t like to do it. Thus, you should focus on developing great content and getting the word out about it. Thanks, again for your perspective.</description>

		<description>I didn&#039;t mean to imply that you implied that, nor I thought that you did.&lt;br&gt;However for me at least, since I am generally not the kind of person who&lt;br&gt;would comment on blogs (except only once in a while), I couldn&#039;t force&lt;br&gt;myself to do so. But it&#039;s also a function of how much time one has, and&lt;br&gt;given my schedule it&#039;s a surprise that I even write once in a while :-)&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I only tweet once.  May be more than once if I am referring to my post in&lt;br&gt;another context.</description>

		<description>Saad, Appreciate your comments. I certainly don&#039;t want to imply that one should comment on other blogs just to get comments back, but rather to suggest that by thoughtfully commenting on other blogs you&#039;ll probably get some reciprocation, which is always appreciated. Nice to see that Facebook and Twitter are working for you. How many times will you tweet a post?</description>

		<description>Mike, I agree with most points here. Personally I only tweet and fb share my posts. Initially I tried some of the other things you mention here, however I quickly realized that it isn&#039;t my &quot;thing&quot;. I don&#039;t have the temperament/patience to do that part, and while it might sound like I am being lazy or not putting in enough effort, I think my time is better spent elsewhere. if I feel that I want to leave a comment on another blog, I do, but I don&#039;t do it just to get traffic back. I like to focus on putting out great posts (and improving with time), and that in itself requires research and a lot of time, and I simply do not have enough time to do the rest. Twitter and Facebook serve me fairly well (return to effort ratio is good; not to mean that I get a lot of traffic/comments).</description>
