Now that I have begun to catch on to how social networks work I really prefer Blog Catalog to the others that I am a member of. The tools are superior — love that dashboard and all it’s functions. The general discussion forums as well as groups and neighborhoods provide opportunities to meet other bloggers and locate blogs, like yours, that I would not have otherwise found.

The ebook is a work of technical “art”. It covers absolutely everything and I simply can’t praise it enough. However, an old hand like you must have much more familiarity with the functions and philosophy than I do.

Thanks for dropping in and commenting. Y’all come back now y’ hear. :)

I was a member of blog catalog when it was listing agent only, so I don’t really do anything now but whip through the discussions while doing school work. I find them amusing.

I get a lot of traffic from mylog log but don’t scroll new members any longer or at least rarely. I have settled in to the blogs I like in my community and look through them weekly.

Most of my traffic is independent of any social network because I started blogging way before all these little things popped up and don’t really use them as a source of traffic because traffic does not translate to readers.

I don’t blog for money so for me there really isn’t a traffic or seo issue I care about.

It’s nice that blog catalog exists for newer bloggers because with so many out there now it can help get traffic, the only problem I see is that many people do not realize there are millions of blogs out there, most using no social a social network.

I’ll check out the e-book later, when I get home though.

You charmer you. You will not see me around the wp[dot]com forum. Where you will see me is a Blog Catalog because I know you are going to join, right? It’s a great place to network and to promote your blog so when you join mark me as your friend so I get a notice telling me that you are there. http://www.blogcatalog.com/
Stay happy!

When it comes to some social networks not being the best fit for your blog I do think you are correct. For example: although I’m a member of Digg, I don’t cotton to witnessing an inner circle who block vote and that’s the scene there so I rarely even cast an eye in that direction.

On the other hand, my blog must be a good fit for Blog Catalog though because I’m a new member and today my blog is in the top 10 most popular blogs at BC.

If you can still log into BC you can remove all your blog information yourself if you don’t want it to appear there.

Bye for now :)
