If you’ve been reading my Intuitive Life Business Blog, you already know that it’s become a hotbed of discussion about the lawsuit that Traffic Power sent to Aaron Wall, and its implications about our responsibility as bloggers for comments left on our blog. That article is Aaron Wall sued over comments on his weblog. As it happens, I also just wrote about how adding comments on other people’s blogs should be a cornerstone of your own blogging strategy too: How do i get more traffic to my blog?
But lawyer Daniel Perry has the best testimonial I’ve seen yet about why commenting on other blogs is such a good strategy. In less than a week he went from adding comments on my blog to being quoted in the Wall Street Journal.
I’ll let Daniel explain what happened…
OK, here’s my comment. It’s Sunday. Can you get me into the WSJ by Wednesday. I’s also settle for the NY Times on Thursday.

Dave,
It’s amazing to me that this very relevant post has been here for 10 days and I’m the only the second person to comment… After you tell people specifically to get involved and comment on other blogs.
I’ve personally found that the most likely readers of blogs are other bloggers. It makes sense to network with them. Open a dialogue and communicate.
Keep up the great work!
