We have found that actually getting out there and reading and commenting is beneficial is so many ways. Not only does it help expand our horizons and perhaps influence new ideas or the ways we do things, but the added benefit of networking is obvious. We have found that paying money to advertise on Google and Facebook hasn’t helped at all. Thank you for the article, I appreciate the tips.

Thanks Peter. My first forays were forums and message boards oh so many years ago. When newspapers and magazines made the transition and began including comment sections with their articles, it was like a new candy store opened up for me. There are a few luck stories around the net. There are a whole lot more SUCCESS stories. And success usually starts with effort.

Hello Paul

Some of the first places I commented online were forums and online newspapers and magazines.

I have to admit some of the comments may not have been too kind as I was usually responding to the news of the day

Personally I do not believe in luck. What we think of as luck is really just not planning and just letting life happen.

I enjoyed the read, thanks Paul.

I noticed some time ago, that I rarely recognized any bloggers on the newspaper forums or magazine columns I frequent. Nor do I see them mentioned much anywhere. I suppose they really don’t get much notice. Amazing really when you see how much interaction they have. Thanks for the visit!

I appreciate the extra effort! My own local paper ran a bit about how they have new moderators. Part of the ccolumn mentioned some stats about newspapers and how much traffic their forums recieve. Have to say, I didn’t really realize the scope of the potential exposure they represented. I do believe I need to spend some time there, and soon!

Thanks Maryann. Marketing is what I had in mind when I wrote this piece. After all, the principal is the same right?
