But since I appreciate blogs where the author does respond to comments I usually make it a point to respond to the ones I get, too. And I appreciate what you shared, something to keep in mind!

Good post, good journal and most excellent (and powerful) software. Thank you. And yes, personal contact is so important, as the web has ballooned into such a monster, especially. Kudos for the initiative. I’ve just discovered this blog – and only recently, Scribefire. Good post, good journal and most excellent (and powerful) software. Thank you.

It's really wonderful to see how much effort you put in to your work e-mailing 190 people. I know I would never do it just to say "thanks" but now I see it's probably worth of the time spent. :) This is a very useful post, thank you for sharing this grate tips.

As what you have done, you enticed people through a commenting contest and was able to produce more and more loyal readers. Actually, i am one of problogger subscribers. And i am greatly amazed by the posts that Darren is making. Maybe i can contact him sometime to get personal comment and suggestions in improving my site. Thanks again for giving us this idea.

I never really thought about this deeply and I've entered two contest like this. They weren't selling a book, and I didn't win, but I did join affiliate programs from each site through their links.... So your post gave me several ideas for contest, and reminds to pay attention to contest that capture my interest.

The internet is know different to any other business/communication tool we have. Dialogue polite and useful makes all the difference. Successful communicators and business people in the "real" world have always worked that way. Nothing really changes in the virtual world. It is the whole point and I get stronger on it everyday.

I believe that there are different levels of relationship with readers. I don't have a lot of readers, but I try to treat each and everyone as if they were personal friends. On the other hand I get really disapointed when write to the author of a blog I like and get no answer back. Great post!
