Thanks for the review!
ReplyDeleteInteresting re the point you make about lack of interactivity. There is activity - meaning, people expressing opinion or making comment about something on my blog - but it tends to happen with tools like Twitter.
So others' comments, etc, are out there in the larger blogosphere/twittersphere rather than on the blog itself.
I'd say that's a growing trend in general, so we need to find ways of tracking comments, etc, wherever they happen. Luckily, there are plenty of tools to help us do that.
No probs - I was actually a little relieved not to give out a 10/10 as it was looking possible for a while!
ReplyDeleteCan you write a post giving a rundown about some of the choices for tracking tools? That's be a big help, thanks.
