		<description>This is definitely inspiring.  

The first few months of blogging can be a little depressing.  I just get psyched when my organic hits go up in my analytic reports.  It&#039;s pretty cool that I just found this blog 4 years after it was written.</description>

		<description>One of my reasons I quit blogging is I can&#039;t post daily. Every time  I blog I ran out of inspiration and ideas and when I stop here comes things and happenings on my life.</description>

		<description>I want to quit alot but the fact that I am going out of my way for this blog doing unique and fun things that I think no one else is doing yet may be the only thing keeping me going even with a low visitor and follower count. But my theory is twitter is good for people who don&#039;t like long tales, facebook =choice to read or not and do other things and myspace is a picture version of my blog. So I guess I may have more followers than I think.</description>

		<description>I am just starting out on my blogging mission and I am glad to hear very good advise that is not designed to feed the need for most to only hear what they want to be told. This was straight forward, honest and helpful. I have hopes of my blog not necessarily making me a boat load of money but I would like to join with like minded individuals and learn how to and hopefully create an organization. With that in mind I personally do not have the need to grow quickly for hopes of wealth but instead grow gradually with meaningful patrons. thanks for the information, advise and encouragement.

		<description>Hmmm, thinking about it right now - just too many other pressing projects and the readers do go up and down  AND the lack of comments is a killer.  I do intend to keep it up, and will continue to improve my writing and I enjoy sharing information with others like me (entrepreneurs, mostly mom&#039;s and women).  I never looked at it for profit - a book someday....maybe, but not the end result.  The compromise is that I won&#039;t post as often.  Thanks for the post - just what I needed today!</description>

		<description>I think blogging is easy, but then I don&#039;t worry about quality of content. I worry about karma and people aversely affected within my yoga universe. Profit isn&#039;t even a consideration (there isn&#039;t any). I&#039;ve been at it for three years, maybe three and a half. I&#039;m trying to find good reasons to stop!</description>

		<description>Great post! I found your post when searching for advice on what to do with an inactive blog - delete it or leave it - because I was thinking it might not be worth it to keep blogging. But instead you gave me some good reasons to keep at it. Thanks!</description>

		<description>Holy [insert explative] ... I&#039;ve been reading Webomatica for a while but had never come across this post until I just now noticed it in the &#039;most commented posts section.&#039; Almost problem-for-problem this is exactly what my experience has been and reflects common pitfalls I&#039;ve seen other bloggers stumble on. People think they&#039;ll add some content, slap on some AdSense and be the next John Chow. Digg seems great, until you realize you get only 50 subscribers (maybe) out of 50,000 visitors :) I&#039;ll be referring anyone who asks me about blogging here in the future lol</description>

		<description>Yes, I agree.  I&#039;m only saying that when comments lag, don&#039;t get discouraged.  You have a message that you believe warrants communication.  Take solace in that.  Go forth, even when those around you don&#039;t support you.  In other words, it is important to communicate, but don&#039;t get upset if others don&#039;t agree or validate.  

In your case, you are a good writer and have proven with your links others find you worthy.  So, you don&#039;t need to worry about comments.  They will come.  Continue to be yourself and you will be successful.  Put out your message with the honesty you have demonstrated.</description>

		<description>Art for art&#039;s sake is a good question. However if one just liked to write with no regard for an audience or readers, I kind of wonder why you&#039;d have a website. The biggest reason to have a website to make the writing public so anybody can view it. 

The truth is, the more I stick with blogging, I find I&#039;m really doing it because of the interaction with readers via comments or what they write on their own blogs. That might sound a little cheesy like some singer saying &quot;I do it for the fans&quot;. But really,  the Internet is a communications medium.

It&#039;s different from gratification since some comments I get are critical of what I write or disagree with me. It&#039;s more like putting your ideas out there and seeing what people think of them.

Thanks for visiting and commenting.</description>

		<description>I don&#039;t have my own blog, but I recently was a writer and commenter on another blog.  I know it takes time and effort to run a blog, and it hurts when few comments are made.

However, whatever happened to &quot;art for art&#039;s sake&quot;?  Have we become a society of immediate gratification, only caring if we get stroked?

Matisse directed his assistant to put up &quot;shapes&quot; on the wall when Matisse was bedridden and could not longer draw.

Great post.  You are a good writer and have some good insights into blogging and the emotional content of it all.</description>

		<description>I stumbled up on this blog. Glad I did. This is one of the best posts I&#039;ve read I think because its from YOU. It wasn&#039;t just rolled out. These are things I thought about before getting back online a month ago. Easy to think about, harder to implement everyday. The only thing I&#039;m committed fully to right now is appropriating changes when I think I need to. 

Thanks for being transparent...</description>
