		<description>Bailey, I mentioned on Sally&#039;s post (hope she doesn&#039;t mind me repeating the tool here) that Comment Sniper is a useful tool for Blog Hopping / Blog Asseting, in the case where you would like your comment to be one of the first.  

It is a free desktop app that notifies you when your favorite bloggers have just posted.

BTW, I discovered your blog from Sally Neill&#039;s 5 Commandments of Blog Hopping.  I love the &quot;Blog Asset&quot; term you&#039;ve coined here.

I&#039;ve hopped over to read the post about SLAPping as well... and it is very practical advice.  Nothing beats focus.  And as my Mom always says: Too much of a good thing is bad. :)

Keep up the great work on the site, Bailey.  

p.s. Craig had a cool quote: &quot;Every blog post is a mini think-tank&quot;.

Brilliant!

You keep good company Bailey.  Now.  if we can just keep you away from these happy slappy monkeys and meerkats...

		<description>Hey Jess,

Thanks for coming by my blog.  Yeah, blog commenting is such a cool way to find other blogs and see what&#039;s going on out there.  I&#039;ve found some really useful information that way built many new relationships too!

		<description>Hi Bailey!

Wow, this is good stuff! I just read your SLAP post as well and enjoyed it thoroughly. I found your blog through some blog surfing this afternoon and seem to keep running into great posts on this topic of commenting! ;)

		<description>Hey Craig,

Our words are so important to make that impression and to catch someones attention, that&#039;s the first thing people see for sure!
It&#039;s a skill that people need to develop.  Thanks for coming by!  Have a good day man.

		<description>This post has shown me you only get so many chances to make a first impression.  Every post is a mini think tank.  If you do not have thoughts and knowledge to share you will get skipped as readers scroll their browser.  It is important to not only write something insightful, but EVERY WORD COUNTS!

		<description>Hey Bailey,

You are surely right about the effects of commenting.  I have also found that they help you to build relationships with people who you never would have met otherwise.  Blogging and commenting can be an amazing experience.

Have a great day!

		<description>Hey Mike,

Totally agree with you, I still stand in amazement when I see how I&#039;ve had over 100 unique visitors in the space of a week since I started commenting.  Thats the power!  Also, Alex is &lt;em&gt;the&lt;/em&gt; man.</description>

		<description>Blog commenting has worked wonders for me.  Here&#039;s the great thing - it works overnight.  You will start getting visitors immediately.  Also, I left a comment on one blog over 2 weeks ago and still get 2-3 visits a day from that one comment.  

What really helps is when someone like Alex recognizes you from your blog comments and gives you a link in a blog post.
