@Dave - You know me buddy, I’m all about the love. And I’m sure I won’t be the only one who’ll be more than happy to follow you wherever the trail may lead.

@James - Dude, get your mind out of the gutter. But yeah, discovering a link from ProBlogger could get messy

@Bill & Kimberly - You’ve been two of my biggest supporters since I first started this blog and I’ll always appreciate that. I hope I can return that support with just as much passion.

@Michael - Thank-you. I’m glad to know you’ve been reading my dinky little blog. I always enjoy seeing your new posts from SEO-Theory pop up in my feed reader. It’s always interesting to see your take on the latest “hot theories” and myths doing the rounds of the SEO blogosphere.

And as far as Sphinns go, with a post like this I’d much rather see the original posts that I’m linking to get the sphinn love. If my efforts to highlight things that I think are worth reading help to drive a bit of extra traffic people’s way, it’s only because they deserve the attention.

Thanks again for taking the time to visit and comment everybody.

I don’t Sphinn so I can’t help your post gain popularity there but I’ve seen the traffic that your site can send to other sites. I consider your posts to be worthwhile for that reason and because you go beyond the bullet-point format and add some commentary.

Helloooo.

I am soooo excited about marrying Bill. He’s the love of my life. I couldn’t have gotten luckier. (ok, so I’ve said that repeatedly..)

I’m totally understanding Dave Harry’s position. Places like Sphinn really have become a feeding ground for selfish persons that call themselves business professionals.

There are those that do not fit into that category. I respect the few that manage to have valuable honest input. The rest seem to be there to market to marketers, and allow for no PR skills whatsoever. Baffling for sure. You know me, I’ve gotten angry quite a few times over the past couple of months. That’s why I began revising my site to protect the consumr. “consumer first” “marketer second”..The ‘herd’ is of no use to my efforts.

Well, thanks for the link love and friend love Ken!

Hi Ken,

When Kimberly said yes, it was one of the happiest moments of my life. I’m looking forward to sharing the rest of my life with her.

Thank you for sharing your happiness with us.

If I could entice Darren Rowse into dropping a link my way I could think of a 29th way to make a web site sticky…

I just wanted to stop by and say thanks… you know, show some appreciation and gratitude… dats how we roll. he he…..

While there has been support… there has also been hints of venom which I found more interesting. Some people just think that the world needs to thank no one and that we users generating the content should be happy with social spamming, 15 minutes of fame or whatever… strange.

I for one am trying to show more respect and appreciation to others in the social sphere as it really doesn’t happen enough… who knows, maybe my next target will be bloggers that don’t show their peeps love… he he…. I thought this was all ’social’?? hmmmmm

Anyway, thanks for the round up… always enjoyable bro!!
