How to establish and maintain good relations in the blogosphere
Catching up on blogging, it is very difficult to reach the heights without the location of grateful respect for readers and fellow bloggers. Both must be earned, in principle, as in real life. Unfortunately, it turns out this is not always and not at all, although someone might not want. In any case, this process requires special attention and time spent."Reputation" need to "grow" a couple of hours or days to implement his plan will not work. I offer you ten simple and proven time and practice rules, following which, you can do it right and get the result. Of course, the mere implementation of these rules and regulations does not give you any guarantees, but much may increase the chances of success in the blogosphere. And even if you do not become super popular blogger, you can at least find a couple of good friends or even friends online. 

Be honest

Always write honestly. Mistaken and deluded in some way does not matter if it's an honest mistake. The reader feels the sort of thing. Especially do not forget that we often read by people smarter and more skilled than you, so if you're fighting for the loyalty of the audience, be very frank.

As an example the situation with advertising posts - do not conceal from his readers, that for a particular publication you receive remuneration. Learn it's not that hard, but the reaction of the audience is unlikely to be positive. Similarly, you can cite as an example a description of their achievements - cheating the readers, you will not get anything good, to some extent even be deceiving ourselves. In short, fairness in the blogosphere, as in life, it's good quality!

Respond to comments and letters

For each comment, and a letter demanding an answer must necessarily respond. Without the attention you can leave only comments like "a" or "offset". If you have a question in the comments, it implies an answer. And the reader expects to get it. Do not disappoint him. The same goes for emails. Even if you can not help or you do not have enough skill, and should answer, but you should always respond. On this depends not only on visitors to you personally, as even the evaluation of the usefulness of the site on which it will or will not go further.

Respond to reader

"The response to the reader" implies not only the need to respond to comments and emails. "The response to the reader" - the ability to anticipate the needs and interests of the audience and to implement them. So, in other words, it's an art to understand and to give his readers what they need. To find out the visitors and their needs better, you can create a poll in my blog , where to ask or note your desired topic for consideration, any steps to improve the project. Most sites are placed in the feedback form to contact with readers and an opportunity for them to give some advice and recommendations on the best of his work. In any case, there are several options, it is important to listen to them and implement them.

Be kind

Always be friendly and people will be pulled to you. There's not much to add or explain further. In spite of his bad mood, personal problems and any other nasty nuances, you should not show it, or projected on its readers. Blogging has much in common with the work, which is also very important to safeguard personal and professional moments.

Be adequate

Respond appropriately to criticism and opposing your point of view. If you are not right, it is necessary to admit it. Do not give in to provocations, to be led by "trolls." And any attempt to "stir up" conflicts or to get personal, I would recommend you as the author and head of the blog, hard to stop. Another important thing - do not be a "star", remember that the concept of top bloggers are very relative.

Comment on other blogs

Comment on other blogs a must, without it fail to start and build relationships and thus integrated into the blogosphere. In addition, if you also want to comment on you, start commenting yourself. Useful, detailed comments on other blogs - one of the methods of driving traffic to bloggers .

Communicate with other bloggers
Relationships with other bloggers often begin with dialogue in the comments (as noted above), and often later develop into a true friendship. Do not hesitate to contact other bloggers with questions, suggestions or anything else. Most of them are good people are adequate. To begin, try to make friends with your bloggers' caliber, "because it is the easiest way. You can even try to organize some form of cooperation in the competition or the joint project.

Link to other blogs

Well-known proven way to improve relations - to refer to other bloggers. Along with commenting on other blogs, this is one of the most effective ways. If your blog is not yet known, the person to whom you referred to at least know about your existence (all bloggers who are interested in references to them), as a maximum - will respond to you in return. In principle, this can be done just so, or to agree with other bloggers for the mutual exchange of links (guards).

Use Twitter and Facebook
Twitter, Facebook or Twitter - a great place to socialize or even make new friends. Use them to enhance communication and maintaining good relations with old friends. Social networks every day closer and more serious part of our lives, to ignore them would be a crime. It is often used to promote a blog like social services.

Participate in live events

Very good if you have the ability to communicate with readers, bloggers or colleagues in a lively, off-line.Such communication is strengthening communication and contributes to the development of new ones.This item is the most difficult to implement, but the possibilities for its implementation have virtually everyone, as the various activities carried out enough - seminars, round table discussions, field trips and more., from which get a lot of good. And what you suggest!

If you have anything to add from personal experience - sharing thoughts in the comments.
