I too am currently undertaking the blog comments challenge during August that was the brainchild of Steve King and Jacinta Dean of John Thornhill Masterclass fame!   Having said that, I’ve jumped on it very late ’cause of holidays etc etc!

The purpose is to publish one post in the month of August and generate comments accordingly…….well 100 actually!

Oh yeah, but don’t forget to socially bookmark the post after leaving  your comment, that would be great :)

Actually, anything that can get really genuine comments to your blog is a great idea. There are plenty of not so genuine people out there and I happen to know that the community that will respond to this post are special because they have a great pedigree: John, Dave and Alex you know who you are!

So, that said, welcome :)

Ok, so this is going to be a very short post!

For a bit of fun, I’ve just joined a free site that uses the “Power of Six”…to drive traffic. If you want to know more, then click traffic.com/5qi" target="_blank">HERE!

Of course, what we all really want are loyal subscribers and as we have to create a relationship first, in the real world, that takes hard work and dedication on our part-this is not a replacement for that process!

Just a bit of fun.

Will it work? I have no idea, but hey…….:)

It’s a mystery!

    Hi Mike,

    Nice to see you on my blog :) – cheers for popping by and reminding me how long ago Bristol seemed to be…lol

    You might mention to Jacinta that the link she posted for you in the MC forum leads to a 404 error,
    I’m sure it’ll get sorted quickly :)

    And welocme to the 100 blog challenge ;)

    Yes I think that the Blog 100 is a really great idea, certainly beats the usual totally useless scammy type replies. Communities in general are I feel One of the best ways to build your business.

    I have also made a start with adswaps via the Warrior Forum with some awesome results.

    Welcome to the challenge :)

    No problem about joining late, you’ve still got over three weeks to go. The secret is to go out and make 100 posts yourself and you’ll be surprised at what happens on your own site :)

    I’ve added a link to your post on my site to let everyone know ;)

    Speak soon
    Cheers

    Thanks for the info on the power of six product. Looks interesting.

    Glad to see you in the comment challenge, it certainly is a great way to get to know people.

    Be careful though, one of the visitors to my blog stole my favorite pen when my back was turned. Now I only have this stupid keyboard…

    You’re right a quality give away would also be good too reinforce the presence

    Hi Mike,
    Indeed yours is the shortest post I came across since I begin the challenge.

    An age old idea with a little bit of clever-twist I must said. The tempting part is it makes us think in the following manner…

    There’s nothing to loose….
    There’s no harm to try…..

    What if it works?

    Heck! I am going to try it for the launch of my coming membership site…..

    Thanks for sharing.

  16. John McNally says:

    Good idea with the short post Mike, it helps all of us visiting 100 blogs. ;-)

    I only had a quick look at the ‘power of six’ but I’m willing to bet you get far more visitors from the 100 comment challenge.

    The calculations the site uses remind me of MLM or Pyramid systems. The numbers look great, but if they really worked everyone in the world would end up subscribing.

    Although the ‘power of six’ is free, don’t forget to account for the TIME you spend on it, it could be more productively spent elsewhere. Just a thought, I hope you prove me wrong. 8)

    Good luck with the 100 comment challenge Mike. :-)

    Hi Mike,

    Nice and short post explaining what you’ve been doing and why you joined the contest later.

    As for the link and the page it leads to I see very little point in joining schemes like that. What is the point of getting traffic that is not real?

    Why go to so many sites and wait for 15 seconds on each? To get that kind of visitors doing the same on my blog?

    A million visitors who do nothing but wait for 15 seconds?

    Nice try.

    Vance

    Mike Reply:

    Hi Vance
    Fair enough.
    It was really just a quick thought and as it was free and had some relevance I thought I would add it.
    I could do with a million visitors-even for 15 seconds :)

  18. Cheryl from backlinks says:

    The only trouble with a “million” visitors is that unusual surges in traffic might crash your site. A rather unfortunate side effect. Slow and steady wins the race. Making connections and building community online is still really important just like in the real world.

    Hi there
    Well I’m not sure whether to be pleased or not that I might get that many now :(

    Hi Mike

    I have just read your post and I am here to help. I love when people accept challenges because I love being part of it.

    A little about me – My name is Sue McDonald and I am a student of Mark Terrell and I am actually going through the course a second time – by invitation. I love it and know if I do all he says, I will be successful. I am Australian but the US is my second home as I have family there and visit quite often. This is why I started Internet Marketing so I can travel whenever I want and have the money to do what I want.

    Well I hope you are doing well and you become very successful. I would love you to come visit my blog and leave a comment.

    Kind regards

    Hi Mike

    Good to see you are making progress with your challenge and I know you will make it because I am sending all of my students to visit your blog.

    Yes I am Mark Terrell and I am following my students as they post on other peoples blogs. They don’t know that I am always checking to see they are getting results. I am passionate about helping them achieve and then they are able to make some money online exactly the same as I am doing. It is not really difficult as long as they are willing to put in the effort.

    Keep up the good work.

    Hey Mike
    My head is still spinning from all the differnent offers that I have come across proclaiming miraculous results in traffic generation. Apology for my scepticism but if it was that easy we would all be wealthy. I think it still comes down to building relationships and trust with your followers and if people trust you and you provide value, they will more than likely want to buy from you.

    [Reply]

    Mike Reply:

    Hi Stan
    Thanks for your post.
    I agree with you 100%.
    This method (should it even work) is not meant to be a substitute for that process, just a bit of fun.
    I suppose, what I would add, is that once you’ve had an influx of sign-ups, you would surely still be able to work at building relationships in the normal way?
    I’m sure the rate of attrition would be huge, but that process would remain the same

    Another one of Mark’s students here.This challenge is a great idea for you. Look at all your comments. You are going to need to outsource to handle all of this ha! This does generate activity for your site so it is worthwhile.

    Mark Terrell is one of the “good guys” and we feel blessed to have him as a coach.

    The power of 6 is a great concept. We have the power of 100 going on our blogs right now!! THAT’S where the relationship building is!

    It looks to be a traffic exchange, something like safelists and banner exchanges where people just click and click to get credits to be able to send their promo to other people who aren’t going to read their emails anyway.

    Let us know how it goes? Did you put your squeeze page in there so you can collect emails for your efforts?

    I am curious how well it works for you.

    Hi Mike

    Long time no speak!

    How are you?

    I took a look at the ‘power of six’ traffic generation tool, it reminded me of a traffic tool I tried a couple of years back where you were credited with points for visiting other participants links. You had to stay on each site for 10 seconds to get your points and your points total entitled you to traffic to your own site.

    I spent hours visiting sites to build up my points until I realized that everyone else in the scheme was doing exactly what I was doing, spending 10 seconds on each of hundreds of random sites with no interest in the individual sites whatsoever.

    My favorite ways to drive traffic are;

    article marketing
    blog commenting
    forum posting
    building JV relationships

    (not necessarily in that order)

    Mike Reply:

    hi Stuart
    Very good to hear from you-how are you?
    Forum posting is something that I need to do more of.

    Hi Mike,

    Your post did make me react. The curiosity was too much. But I will have too decline on the Million Visitors.

    As Vance pointed out I don’t really want to be visiting many blogs for 15 seconds only to get a code and place my site on top of a list.

    I feel it would be a waste of time and the visitors I received would not really engage with me on my blog and me on theirs.

    So sorry will have to pass this one. But good to see you here on the challenge.

    Hey Mike, the million visitor tools looks interesting. Many visitors may just breeze through without reading or open the pages in 6 extra tabs, wait the 15 seconds and then add their own link.

    Using a statistical approach though, if you get 1% of those million visitors actually interested in your offer then 10,000 people signing up would certainly be worth the effort. Even if it was 0.1%, an extra 1000 sign-ups can’t be dismissed as trivial.

    I signed up so you only 9 more from your link and you’re at the next level :-)

    Best wishes with the 100 comment challenge. It means a lot of visiting blogs over the next week and a bit :-)

    Hi Mike
    Very good post. Thats what we all want to put across in our blogs – honesty, integrity and fun in order to build up genuine and loyal followers. As for the power of six go for it. It could be fun – not for me though.
    All the best in the challenge.
    Good luck
    Eamon

    No problem.
    It may be something and nothing, but its worth a try alongside all the normal routes to building good solid relationships, at least thats my thinking.
    Obviously, its no substitute for building JV relationships or forum (or even blog posts).
    Best wishes

    Hi Mike,

    Looks like August is the month of blogging. I’ve posted on over 400 blogs this month as a part of Mark Terrell’s coaching program.

    It’s been a lot of work, but a lot of fun too!

    To your success,

    Lesley

    Hi Mike.

    Found your site as part of the 100 Blog Post Challenge. May I be so bold as to suggest that you cange the title of your free report to: “How To Get Your First 100 Subscribers AND Your First $100 Online”?

    I’ve posted a link to this page on identi.ca for you (makes a change from Twitter!)

    Hi Martyn
    Hey well spotted, thanks for that.
    The actual report is called that, the opt in was wrong :)
    Nice to hear from you.

    Hi Mike,

    I would never thought that reading and commenting on 100 blog posts PLUS replying to 100 comments of our own blog post, would take so much time! I thought that I would finish before the 10th day of August. Today is the 26th and I still have to comment on 30 more blog posts!! I really like the idea of the challenge because of the connection we are making but still it took me time from my other internet marketing activities.

    Next time I will enter a challenge of less than 30 comments! LOL :)

    Anyhow I am still happy with the challenge and made many good connections that will help me increase my business. So it’s a win-win!

    OK. Wish you all the best with the challenge. Only 6 days left!

    Take care,
    Andreas

    Hi Andreas
    I agree :)
    It’s been an interesting experience to say the least.
    Hopefully many of these new relationships will continue-that would be great of course.

    Hi Mike,

    Yes and finally its over now! Took too much time.. ;)

    The good relationship with each other has JUST STARTED, with the challenge. It continues with Facebook, Twitter, becoming JV partners and helping each other business. You never know what can happen. :)

    PS. Added you as a friend on Facebook but cant find you on Twitter.

    Hi Mike, It’s nice to meet you and check out a million free visitors site. You’re right the program is a leap of faith. It’s really not so much the quantity of traffic marketers are after, it’s more the quality, e.g., targeted search traffic and backlinks with high page rank, and subscriber traffic and jv promotional traffic. There is one thing for sure that a million visitors free program would accomplish – higher Alexa ranking – which could in turn increase the resale value of the domain but if the page rank is low the value of the website won’t have much resale value. Moving traffic to websites is critical for internet businesses and countless ebooks have been written on the subject. The 100 comment challenge is one of those eboooks in a way. The only difference is there doesn’t have to be an ending after Aug. 31. Be well, Steve D.

    Hi Steve
    Well I hope it doesn’t all end on the 31st!
    Thanks for your very comprehensive comment. Its seems to me that on page and off page SEO is an art rather than a science anyway…..
    Quality traffic, well, that’s something else :)
    Best wishes

    Enjoyed my first visit to your blog by way of the challenge, good to meet you.

    Hi Mike,

    I agree with Andreas! The next challenge I create will be a lot less in numbers! Definite bimbo comment on my behalf. I had no idea on the workload it was going to create! A big Oops on that one! :oops:

    Although in saying that I have about 30 more blogs to get to and I have visited everyone. I am making my comments and then I will be coming back again in the next few days. I am doing a comment table as I go around to see who has commented on whos’ blogs.

    Nothing like blog hopping in my sleep. I think I will be blog hopped out at the end of this! :shock:

    Thank you so much for mentioning the challenge and I do hope you are having fun with it!

    Hopefully everyone will get to everyone’s blogs very soon and we all succeed together! It is up to the contributors now!

    See you back here soon!

    Cheers

    Jacinta :D
