		<description>Hey Steve,

I did hunt down for the posts long back and check it out earlier. Thanks for linking me again though! It was spectacular. No wonder you decided to upload it! :)

Some of the best SEO posts are tough to understand; that is why I prefer the ones with tutorial or with snapshots. I am so glad you make it easy to read. That is one element on which people offering tutorial or techniques should be working on. Making the language understandable and easy to put to use!

Thanks once again!</description>

		<description>Hi Hajra.
As requested, here&#039;s a link to the London 2012 fireworks video (click my name). They are really spectacular.
 
As for running out of things to talk about on the subject of SEO. No I don&#039;t.
Because my blog is aimed at small businesses and us mere mortal bloggers (lol), I just write in nice simple terms.
I guesss I do cover stuff that&#039;s already out there but so many write technical posts, I think (well hope) that your average website/blog owner finds my posts easier to read than many.
I don&#039;t just cover SEO either. I cover just about all things DIY website. I never find myself short of ideas, only time to get all I want to say on screen.</description>

I am just glad you come read my posts! I am thankful to Steve!

Lol! I love how you say that! You work around your posts through the images you decide on. Is that what you mean? That is so innovative! I always have to figure out the right images for my posts. And I never end up with the image I have in my mind...</description>

		<description>Hajra, 

Here I am, late to one of your great blogging parties again.  Well, Steve Hippel posted this one on Google+, so he drew me in...

What inspires me is the imagery.  Sometimes I have ideas for images I want to share; then I come up with a whole bunch of text to go with the images.  But, sh, don&#039;t tell everyone - some people have told me they actually learn something from my text.

Take care,

Leora</description>

		<description>Hi Hajra,

Well in my company I am lucky that I have been given the  power to decide how much to write in a week. :) So I just asked to make sure if the frequency is okay. 
I cannot misuse the power you see. ;)</description>

		<description>Too much blogging about blogging?  No problem. Pick a new topic and get passionate about it.

If you think you have run out of ideas, I want to remind you that around the year 1900, the US Patent and Trademark Office declared that all the ideas had been patented.

While you are thinking about it enjoy a cup of coffee and a biscotti.</description>

		<description>Hey Shree,

No problem! 

I always feel I need to have a schedule but I don&#039;t end up having one and a day job makes it tough for me too! Most people stick to twice a week and earlier I did stick to twice a week to. But then, when my freelance job started getting a little more demanding, I just had to focus more on that than blogging.

It could be a personal choice you know, what you want and how you want to do it. I am trying my best to blog at least once in a week; but yes, guest posts included! 

Doesn&#039;t your company have a blogging schedule that you should stick to?</description>

		<description>Hi Hajra,

Sorry for replying late! A schedule is good to have but many times I fail to maintain the schedule. I know this is not appropriate but often at times I cannot help. Generally I try to write two times a week. 
Is that a good frequency? Or should I blog more often? To mention here, it is not my personal blog, I write for the company I work in.</description>

		<description>Hey Rachel,

That is probably the best explanation to this post! Thank you!

When I entered the blogging scene I cam across so many blogs talking about social media and related that I was confused whether I was doing the right thing; but then I had to make the decision of what I am able to do and what I can do. You need to learn before you write about something. Many of the bloggers talking about social media don&#039;t really have much to offer and we need to differentiate between what is worthy and what is not.

It is important to hold on to what you love doing and work on it. It will always show in your work and that is important!

Thanks for stopping by! Although you didn&#039;t link me up to anything; I would love to read your work!</description>
		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hey Rachel,</p>
<p>That is probably the best explanation to this post! Thank you!</p>
<p>When I entered the blogging scene I cam across so many blogs talking about social media and related that I was confused whether I was doing the right thing; but then I had to make the decision of what I am able to do and what I can do. You need to learn before you write about something. Many of the bloggers talking about social media don&#8217;t really have much to offer and we need to differentiate between what is worthy and what is not.</p>
<p>It is important to hold on to what you love doing and work on it. It will always show in your work and that is important!</p>
<p>Thanks for stopping by! Although you didn&#8217;t link me up to anything; I would love to read your work!<br />

		<description>After reading a few comments I have found that many people have seen a pattern of common blogs like myself. I think many people (bloggers) are too worried about making the blogs more liked than just blogging about what they are interested in writing. 

People have a serious need to be liked and will often conform to that which is considered &quot;likable,&quot; and start to have a normative social influence because certain topics are popular  (which leads to repetitive blogs). This could possibly be why every topic on social networks, like Facebook, are all the same ( people want more &quot;likes&quot;). 

Considering the factors that make a person conform a blogger starts to feel inadequate when starting to blog. They feel they do not know enough, so they follow whomever they believe knows the system.

 Blog are not meant to be about one thing. Every individual has different interest and I think it is important to grasp that concept. Blog what YOU know, not what everyone else is blogging.</description>

		<description>Oh absolutely, I think the talking thing in me likes reading comments and it makes it so wonderful to just read what people have to say. Makes me feel that my post is special (yes, I like that! ) I think the guest post at your blog is enough proof of that!

Length is not an issue. I just like to pull Deeone&#039;s leg about that! But yes, a valuable, well thought comment makes all the difference. I love how people use humor in their comments too. 

Short and sweet works fine for me! :)</description>

		<description>Hajra, 

Yes, I love the comments where you feel people want to be part of a conversation.  

I hope they don&#039;t have to be long, I can&#039;t compare to you or Deeone.  I try my best with short and sweet.  I&#039;m like that offline also.  My extroverted friend thinks I am shy but I just don&#039;t talk a lot.  My husband would beg to differ. LOL.

		<description>Hey Sandipan,

Thanks so much! Looks like you have been following me around! LOL!

This is my first guest post here and yes, I love the response I am getting. People are so wonderful to have related so well to the post. 

I am so glad you enjoyed reading the post. But tell us, do you think you have got stuck in the blogging conformity or is it something that you successfully avoided?</description>
