Blog Tip

You can also achieve extended success by posting comments utilizing a really good blog that you created. Try and creating a blog around social networking topics or marketing a website. These will get the most traffic. Use a similiar comment style of template with a link to your blog. If it is a featured blog, then be sure to mention that.

Groups Tip

This is another great way to market through comments. The key here is to create a group that is somehow related to your industry that will appeal to others. Then you can create a comment that asks other members to join your group.

Feel free to ask any questions here on how to tailor your comments. We want you to succeed.

The templates are helpful and appreciated.

You're so right about the value thing. People are tuning out and not even reading most of the stuff coming out these days because of the constant bombardment of marketing hype. The shame is something of value could be there, but the "same old same old" copy writing does them in.
