Thank you, Chris, for answering questions today! I learned a lot today. My key takeaways were: 1) commenting on other blog posts is a great way to start joining the conversation - but that doesn’t mean just adding a “me too” or “nice post” comment with a link back to my site. It means adding to the discussion, or asking a question! 2) When blogging, brevity is key! Use sub-headings and bullets to break things up and keep the eyes moving!

Thank you so much for not just replying to NTEN, but providing this information to the rest of us. I really appreciate the resources you provide on your site!

Chris:

Great session! Thanks for sharing your knowledge! My key takeaways 1) You have to embrace the trial and error - it’s part of the process, but don’t forget to ditch the stuff that doesn’t work once you discover it. 2.) It’s about the relationships with people - its not about volume.

Thenk you for the great question period today. I really appreciated the expertise and look forward to using the several tools out there to help improve my personal blog as well and the blog for the foundation I am a part of.

Thanks much Chris for an enlightening and interesting session today. I’m a follower of yours for a while, but it was great to hear your voice and insights in a different medium.
