National De-Lurking Day is coming up next month! Don’t celebrate it?! Think it might be akin to Festivus or some greeting card company generated day of fake joy?

Sorry. Nope, but I’ll send a card if it helps Hallmark start following our progress. It’s a celebration of the community spirit of blogs and social media as a whole. It’s fantastic that your blog shares valuable information and that people walk away with a great idea, but how often do you get the chance to dialogue with your readers?

We talk to our clients about how helpful blogs can be to build your brand and increase your SEO all day long, but what we don’t do often enough is reach out to those blogs. We are guilty of lurking ourselves. We rarely stop by and introduce ourselves.

Let’s start talking to one another. See that comment button up there? Push it and introduce yourself. What’s your name, what do you do, how did you find us, do you prefer ketchup or mustard?  And then leave us a link to your blog and insist that we continue the dialogue in your space as well.

Ok?

Ok.
