		<description>Thank for the tips, as a blogger, I like to get comments from my readers. At least I do feel that people do read my blog. :-)</description>

		<description>I believe adding polls might be another way to increase traffic
People like to vote and I can&#039;t remember too many blogs offering this feature
Would be nice to follow this experiment</description>

You are doing great! As a new blogger, focus on traffic; everything else depends on that.

If I can be of any help, just email me through the contact page.</description>

		<description>Hey Hugh, I&#039;m commenting here but actually was looking for an old post I couldn&#039;t find where you recommended one of the plug ins regarding RSS feed and new visitors.

I got it, plugged it in, and found a sort of weird thing happen.  On a post where I pinged myself on a post with little text I got the RSS invite on my pingback. Weird .  I wonder if I just need more text before the pingback? Perhaps I posted from a computer that was still considered &#039;new&#039; by the invite?  I don&#039;t remember.

Ideas?

		<description>@Roger-

Yeah, trying the new theme, hoping for increased readability.

If it were ever made illegal for a blogger to comment on another&#039;s blog, we would all dry up and disappear.

Sometimes, I wonder if that would be a very bad thing?</description>

		<description>New look! I thought I had found a new blog.

Hugh,
I&#039;ll try to follow your advice as much as possible.
BTW - have you commented on my blog lately :)

I have found the cashcow blogs to be quite repetitive and I think they all just comment on each other&#039;s blogs.</description>
