Get More Comments, Technoratti Love, and StumbleUpon Exposure with these Links

Recently, I just installed the SezWho script for Entrecard. The adoption of this new entrecard program is basically to give my commenters, especially the entrecard users, a way to get some precious credits while commenting here. I’ll be ranking your comments, of course. I think using SezWho on your blog (through entrecard) will guarantee that you’ll get a comment or two for your blog (depends on how interesting your post is). I’m saying “a comment or two” because it’s not really the best way to get comments for your blog. If you really want to get comments, you have to focus on strategies and proven methods to make your readers speak up. I have a post just for that: How to Get Comments on Your New Blog.


One thing I don’t like about SezWho comment rating tool though is that it doesn’t provide any way for blogspot users to manipulate where exactly the ratings will nest in their blog. And it certainly affects how my blog template looks. Yes, you can customize how your stars and your profile size appear, but that’s just it. You can also manipulate its overall look through a long list of CSS codes which I have no idea where to start. I wish they can offer more ways for us to manipulate this tool much better. But if nothing changes within a month or two, I guess it’ll be bye-bye SezWho. For those who are not aware of it yet, here’s entrecard’s post about the SezWho and Entrecard Partnership.

Next in line is a blog carnival on recommendations for new and experienced bloggers about how they could increase the amount of visitors to their blogs with no financial investments. It’s Bringing More Traffic to Your Blog - July 18, 2008 - 6th Ed. There are about 43 articles for you to learn from about getting more traffic to your blog and an article from yours truly is one of it.

About the Technorati love, here’s Link Back Project. It’s basically a viral link train of the sort but it’s a whole blog dedicated for it (well, not so much now). You’ll get lots of backlinks to your blog when you participate which could fuel your Technorati ranking and authority. I’m just not sure about Alexa and Google; but theoretically all those incoming links should be able to make some significant changes in your blog stats, seriously. For more info about it just check out the project.

And then, here’s another Digg tool. It’s TINC. What it does is basically to show you who are digging your submissions and whose submissions you’re digging too. All you have to do is type your digg username in the search box provided and press enter. Results, which also include your latest ten submissions, will appear instantly. If you’re one of those who like to clean up their friends list if they’re digging your submissions or not, this tool is for you. But more than that, there’s another use for it which I’ll mention next.


You’ll be using TINC to integrate your Digg campaign to your StumbleUpon activity. Basically, what you’ll do is to find your digg friends in SU (StumbleUpon) then befriend them and/or vice versa. After that, use TINC to view your digg username’s results which you’ll then send to your SU friends via the send function of your SU toolbar. Your SU friends can then digg your post by clicking on the link from your TINC page and then head to your actual post and stumble it. It’s advisable to do this after you’ve submitted your/others’ content to Digg. Also, be sure to send it to your friends who know how Digg-TINC-StumbleUpon method works. Do you find my instructions hard to follow, maybe it’s best to get it straight from where I originally got the concept: Stumble Upon Digg Traffic.
