That way it won't be a one-way conversation.  You'll actually be inviting thoughtful conversations and that's more fun.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Kelly-Product reviewer</dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 11 May 2011 01:13:30 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Writing Effective Blog Posts</title><link>http://www.chrisbrogan.com/writing-effective-blog-posts/#comment-174266497</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Ending every blog post with a question is indeed an excellent way to engage a reader, it helps the reader to re-think the entire post and better evaluate the salient points in the message. In my opinion, challenging a reader in this way will draw more attention to a blog any-day, Anytime. &lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Donald Arinze</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 29 Mar 2011 15:33:39 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Writing Effective Blog Posts</title><link>http://www.chrisbrogan.com/writing-effective-blog-posts/#comment-169175609</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Loved your post.  I also lead with a question to engage people.  In some cases I use the word 'you' and 'because' in the first paragraph as effective tools to draw people in.  I've heard these are 2 of the most important words to attract attention when you can't use the persons name directly.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Love your tip of ending with a question.  Use it most times. &lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Catherine Heeg</dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 21 Mar 2011 16:23:26 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Writing Effective Blog Posts</title><link>http://www.chrisbrogan.com/writing-effective-blog-posts/#comment-163432097</link><description>&lt;p&gt;I have read it twice and i think for me its a big help.thanks&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Prasant Naidu</dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 10 Mar 2011 07:34:31 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Writing Effective Blog Posts</title><link>http://www.chrisbrogan.com/writing-effective-blog-posts/#comment-152636650</link><description>&lt;p&gt;I appreciate it! &lt;br&gt;Thanks a lot for a bunch of good tips.&lt;br&gt;I look forward to reading more on the topic in the future.&lt;br&gt;Keep up the good work!

I try to do thing similar but I like how you've explained your "First Moves" and your "LeadParagraph".  I like to use strong within my paragraphs too to make them even easier to scan.  I should use Flickr more too.  Good suggestion.  I always end up making my own graphics just because I'm one of those guys.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Thanks for the tips.  I'll definitely take some of your suggestions to improve my blogging.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Brandon Buttars</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 14 Apr 2009 16:39:22 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Writing Effective Blog Posts</title><link>http://www.chrisbrogan.com/writing-effective-blog-posts/#comment-8517188</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Nice post - thank you for the pointers!&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">phefland</dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 11 Dec 2008 17:08:40 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Writing Effective Blog Posts</title><link>http://www.chrisbrogan.com/writing-effective-blog-posts/#comment-8517187</link><description>&lt;p&gt;I find your blog posts on the whole, very useful.  In fact, you've inspired a number of slides for my "Effective Writing for the Net" workshop I'll be leading in Asia next month.  But my big question for you is, "What does it take to as prolific and connected as you are online and still maintain a fulfilling personal life offline?  Is there a delineation between the web and the world for you?
