This one is good enough that I had to cross post it with the DEN blog.
CoolCatTeacher has got a fantastic post about how valuable commenting is as part of the blogging process. She also shares her tips for being a comment king or queen.
Commenting has truly been the fuel that has fired readership for my blog and opportunity for me. It is also part of being a responsible blogger in general.
If one is an expert, I guess they may just want to keep their “wisdom” on their own blog, but the true conversation participants are those who contribute to the discussion wherever the blog posting is.
She’s got some great ideas in there, several of which I’m going to act upon myself. I’m going to give CoComment another try (had some issues with earlier incarnations), and add a “Recent Comments” block to the sidebar of this blog.
Whether you’re an experienced blogger, a newbie, or just a reader for right now, she’s got some great suggestions.
Lots of luck with the cocommenting, I had tried it earlier also, it is a lot easier now. I enjoy using it because now I don’t have to go back and find the articles that I’m commenting on!
So, how did the trial work out? Don’t hesitate to let us know what worked and what didn’t if you gave coComment another run
