You’ve nailed it here Pearl. I particularly like the section on accepting constructive criticism. The reality is that’s like getting free market research.

hey Nick.. welcome to the blog… glad you like the point :)

I always felt that email does make it a bit more personal and sometimes it is easier to voice your concerns via emails than on the blog itself! So if the blog owner contacts me, I feel much easier to comment next time on the blog, establishes a relationship…..

hope to see you around here more often Nick… tc and stay in touch

Hi Pearl,

Thanks for the interesting article. Building relationships with your readers is important, and I know I need to do more to do that. So it was great to run across your article. I am pretty open to feedback of all kinds, but I never thought that an email follow up, if possible would be a good thing, but I can see why it makes senses to do that. So I am adding that to my routine follow-up tasks. I also offer a prize from time to time to the people who comment often.

Nick

Hi Pearl,

What the article says is that how many links you have on your page is important. And more important would be how many links on your page that are external. External links drains your possible pr score. You basically have the possibility of adding 1 pr score when you add a page. If 33% of your links are internal (Like yours are) you are loosing 66% of the possible value of the page. Its the links on your page. This is not exact figures, but the principal is the same. A page with no external links pointing off the web site retains 100% of it’s value.

hey Localref: I’m sure you are right but honestly I haven’t spent any time learning how this works and how others linking to this article affect me negatively (is what happened?) :) may be you can point me to some article for a bit of education? thanks!

Hey Pearl

You have 154 links on this article web page. I see you on the list. It’s interesting to me that about 66% of your links point outside your site. ‘m pretty sure that eans your created this page and gave away most of the value. I would think you would want it the other way around. I would rather you keep 66% of your page value. Loved the project. I learned a lot.

Guess which participant will give you the best return for your comment effort.
Table of Link Values of participants
Just a quick survey of how many links on each participants article page.
It will eventually be an article but I thought you would like to see the table. I was amazed!

@MakingSalesMakingMoney: Welcome to the blog and thank you so much for the kind words…

@ReviewSaurus: thanks … never a problem mayank :) I was just playing with you …. thanks for the vote of confidence!

@Steven Snell: I agree. Problems don’t arise if we disagree, they are likely to occur when people aren’t humble and cross bounds!

thank you so much for stopping by Steven!!

I think humility and respect are very important. Readers notice these qualities and I think they’re more likely to be involved if they know their opinions will be respected.

Wonderful article Pearl! It is actually important to build relationship with the readers. And no wonder that you can give this tip because you have been successful in doing that :)

And yes, I didn’t find your comment offending at all…blogging is all about discussion and you threw your point and I did mine…so where’s the problem :D

Thanks Aruni :) blogging is something we will continue to struggle with and complain about but never be able to quit :) it is addicting, isn’t it? I’m glad you are having fun :)

Nice post and I agree with all of it. :-) My blog is something I do on the side and I do have a full time job trying to get a company off the ground. I am having so much fun with the blog that I don’t obsess about my subscriber numbers because I know there are many more stopping by to read what I’m writing about from time to time and that’s rewarding…even if they don’t leave a comment.

Its kind of you to say that Sue :) Thats the aspect of blogging that I love the most, to be able to make connections with people from far off places.. and of course thats what I meant too… you are one of those valued friends I have made… me in NJ, Deb in BC, you and Kim in Aus… and some in India and Malaysia … its just wonderful!

Excellent article, Pearl and I find that you put these methods into place well on your blog. It is good to find you talking about readers and relationships rather than traffic and linking as is often the case when reading such a topic.
I try to do all of the things you suggest. With my most regular readers I find that I communicate with them outside of blog comments too – eg on facebook, via email, via stumbleupon etc which helps develop the relationship further.
