    Thanks Brown Baron…you’re the bomb…oops, I didn’t add that one to the list!

    Great… ummm.

    I know exactly what you mean, though! I try to find something specific I liked about the post, because I don’t want people to think I’m just spamming their posts with my own linkbacks, especially on dofollow sites!

    Stumbled!

    Spiffy comment Jayne! I think it’s really important that comments add some value, but I also just feel the need to give out some praise ahead of my comment! Thanks for the stumble:)

    Fantasmagorical (Fantastically Magical) post Dana. You’re absolutely right. When choosing a gift for someone, I always choose something that I’d like to have myself. Comments are similar to my mind.

    Your post is a breath of fresh air and ripe for the hall of fame as well as a stumble and whatever else I can Digg up.

  6. dana_wallert | September 7th, 2007 at 8:11 am

    Hi Sus…super duper word there. I might have to edit the post to add that one!

    Thanks for your kind words! That’s a great analogy about gifts. It’s so true!

    That is terrific! Using “Great post!” can become a habit once you start it!

    It’s alway good to leave intelligent respond so you will get clicked on and noticed :-)

  12. dana_wallert | September 10th, 2007 at 12:24 pm

    Exactly WarriorBlog! I think it’s important to try to leave comments that you would be proud to say out loud! It’s so easy to comment for the sake of commenting or worse in hopes of getting links, that you can forget that you are always representing yourself and your business.

    Post-tastic Dana!

    Kinda peachy, a little bodacious, and way killer. Sa-weet!
