Great post! (Stumbled!) One of the ideas I had for getting more comments was to leave relevant links or links to your popular posts in the “website” part of the form. I’m glad I’m not the only one who has this thought. I’ll definitely have to try specific linking more often.

BTW – reached this article through your stumbleupon profile.

Thanks.

James,

Thanks for the comment!

Relevance is the foundation of social media. The extreme opposite of relevant linking might be considered “spam”.
