Thank you, Murray

Such a comprehensive article for bloggers!

Moreover, the key point “conversation is king” has been proved right here. The above comments bring so much of in-depth and helpful information.

I have visited the sites of those who commented here. It is like the online university. A lot to learn.

The only issue is lack of time …

Thank you

I will definitely have to say that if you want to take your own content to the next level, you will need to engage in conversation with your audience. Why? This is simple we humans by default are not perfect and we can definitely not have or cover every point inside a blog post. Conversation will wake up more doors to bring the best of your post….

Thanks for the post…

Like what we are doing right now, a lot of people over here are commenting on your entry and trying to talk with each other. It’s a good idea indeed, a blog with a forum like comment section. It makes me want to stay longer because I’m interested in what other people may say

These are all great tips, and I definitely agree that regardless of the quality of the conversation, a good blog requires dialogue. It is frustrating to post comments to a blog when no one replies… especially when the comment includes a question. But we all have time constraints, so I never expect an immediate reply, and give replies on my own blog as soon as I am able.

Over the past year several of us have worked together to research the best ways to enhance the interaction and conversations on blogs. We decided to go with the dofollow movement and use the CommentLuv and KeywordLuv plugins to reward our regular Commentators. I linked this comment to additional information on dofollow.

We may also add the Top Commentator plugin which provides links from every page of a blog for those who comment most frequently. Some who are more concerned with Google choose not to go dofollow but it works for us.

Regarding optimum SEO it is important to use a Theme that was professionally coded and optimized for the search engines. We use Thesis on all of our blogs. If your Theme doesn’t have SEO built in the WordPress plugin All-in-one-SEO provides that benefit.

Poorly coded themes and plugins can cause blogs to be poorly indexed – and that is a major reason we went with Thesis. We know that they test it with commonly used plugins and keep it current so we don’t have to be as concerned about technical details and can focus on content and marketing.
