When the owner actually takes and active role. Maybe the head steer will become so successful that he will no longer find time to respond to comments or when he will be super successful that comments won't even be allowed. Until then, we reap the benefits and this ain't hay. This is the best part of blogging. When the owner actually takes and active role.

I also agree with SuiteJ, be personal, crack jokes, let your personality show through, this can be very engaging, especially since you are never talking to people face to face, but through a computer.

Why don't you put a 'quickie' correction box in that empty space just to the right of this comment where a note could be posted without a lot of fuss? At the moment, I would post "Don't write 'your' when you mean 'you're.' It’s marvelous to see that good writing and correct grammar and spelling are being advocated again!

Before that I read about blogging for more than 1 year. The recommendation "write well" was plastered everywhere. After these 10 months I can only give 1 advice to beginner writers: Write a lot. Naturally You will become better. When I look back to the first posts on my blog and compare them to my latest ones I think they must be from two different writers.

You do need something extra these days to even stand a chance of making it. I think you definately need to be different in some way than all the other blogs out there if you want to be successful. I am honest that I am a struggling entrepreneur and this is what makes me different to many other blogs Really good points. You do need something extra these days to even stand a chance of making it.

I see that as one of the biggest problems out of the three steps of authority content. Most the time people believe in what they're recommending but then there are the ones that just recommend things to make money. I think too often people aren’t personal enough.
