Let's build our own little blogging network

    I'm sure that you would like a bit more activity on your blog. Who doesn't after all?

    So here's my little idea: Let's make a community and leave comments on each other's blog. I'm not looking for a humongous number here. 5 like minded people with a strict 1:1 comment ratio would be great for start.

    The only restriction is that you have to like the other blogs in the network and the bloggers of course must like yours. Shotgun marriages don't work, so let's not mess this up from the very beginning.

    So if you're interested, leave a message here.

    Ideas, feedback and suggestions are all welcomed.

    Regards, George

    @ThoughPunk I'm sorry to say this, but I don't see myself watching your posts with even the slightest amount of interest. The topics you cover are simply way too much on the beginner side.

    @C4Supplements I don't usually like personal blogs, but what can I say? You have an interesting life and hobbies :D . Welcome aboard!

    The two blogs in the network so far are:

    Gray Hat Zone

    and

    The Sugared Lotus

    If you want to join, please check the two blogs and see whether you like them and after you apply, ALL the existing members must accept your blog as interesting.

    Regards, George

    @axxo08 I could see myself checking your blog regularly. We'll now have to wait and see if C4supplements thinks the same.

    @anshul555 Your blogs are more or less a collection of howto articles. Sure they would be helpful if I needed such information, but more likely I would simply do a Google search. Sorry these are not the kind of blogs I would read on a regular basis.

    @John1776 I'm afraid you're right. Forex is not one of the topics I am interested in. You should consider promoting your blog in more targeted communities such as related forums.

    Regards, George

    No worries, I just checked out yours and I don't like it either. The topics you cover are just the same old thing, noting interesting to me. good luck though.

    If by any chance you felt offended by my comments, then I apologize. When you start a blog you have a niche, a target, an audience in mind. I'm simply not part of it.

    The type of advice you offer can be incredibly useful for a beginner. If I would've seen your blog when I started my online career, I would've been more than willing to network with you, I would've become a fan. Unfortunately though I am not. Don't take this personally. I don't hold anything against you, nor towards your writing style. It's the niche, the very ideas that don't excite me anymore.

    Anyway, I think I'll drop this project. This doesn't seem like the right place for it. C4supplements and axxo08 I will check your blogs regularly and leave a comment every now and then. If you feel like reciprocating it would be nice, but definitely not compulsory.

    Happy blogging everyone.

    Regards, George

    Too bad. This seemed to be a very promising project.

    Good luck all.

    Seems like a good way to stimulate some activity on your blogs. Many people do that when starting forums.

    Good luck,
