So this is the dilemma, we all love to see comments on our blog posts. If you are saying you don’t then I don’t think you are being completely honest either with us or yourself. The reason is pretty obvious, blog comments mean attention, interaction with an audience and evidence that you are getting traffic to your blog.

The temptation then is to accept any old rubbish that is placed in your blog comments box and leave it in place. Looks good if every post you have published is showing multiples of comments; or does it? There are problems with allowing comment spam to sit on your blog posts.

The first obvious one is that they drown out the real comments by real people that are actually trying to interact with you and establish a sensible dialogue on the subject being discussed. Anyone visiting your blog and finding the comments filled up with comment spam are highly likely to assess you as someone who doesn’t care about their visitors or have a real interest in discussing the topic content. End result of that type of conclusion is that they leave your site never to return and all the hard work you put in getting them to read your post in the first place is completely wasted.

There are many people on the Internet who claim to have expertise in SEO Search engine optimization. They range from self-proclaimed gurus, some of which, to be fair, that have taken the time to learn their trade, to people who may have only just started publishing on the Internet and actually have very little experience in promoting websites or blogs.

Many of the SEO techniques that actually work are available on the Internet totally free. You do of course have to find them and somehow you have to be able to sort the wheat from the chaff, and to focus in on the techniques that work versus the ones that are absolutely wrong. This process can be extraordinarily time consuming and burn up hours of your precious time.

It happens to us all at some time, negative thinking starts to creep into your psyche. Perhaps you aren’t getting the success you were looking for quickly enough, the money isn’t coming in as fast as you would like, the traffic statistics don’t look good enough or you simply struggle to find ideas for a post. That’s when it starts, you begin to wonder if its worth the effort, or if anyone is actually interested in what you are writing about. You may even start to doubt that what you are writing is of a high enough quality.

What you need to know is that negative thinking causes self defeating behavior and before you know it those negative feelings can send you on a downward spiral that can paralyze your thought processes. If you let it get bad enough or let yourself sink deep enough into the negative thinking, then before you know it you will be adding yourself to a long list of failed Internet marketers.

So what can you do about it how can you stop that negative thinking and find a way of overcoming self defeating behavior of the type that ultimately results in you giving up on your dreams and ambitions.
