However, these tips are so good!, I'd apply them in my real life relationships instead -- friends, colleagues and family. I do comment on other blogs frequently, but more as an appreciation to their writings and ways of thinking. And obviously, because they're worth it. Relationship, on the other hand, takes a much deeper level of understanding.. something words alone cannot describe. Sorry, perhaps I'm just not that type of blogger. Good post. Thanks!

It's amazingly simple yet is exactly the basic building block of relationship. I like the quote from J.C. Penney. "Give everyone everything they ever wanted and they will give you everything you want AND MORE" When I sit down and look at what got me where I am today, it's because I made deposits in the "relationship bank" and did things without any tangible return. I realized years ago that by doing this, whenever I needed something someone would be there to help me. Cheers and Great Post! I really like the idea of the “relationship bank” analogy.

Persist But Don’t Annoy , but don’t stalk them! I am really laughing at this because I feel like a stalker sometimes. There are a few sites I really love to look at 1.Because they have alot of information for other bloggers (like yours) 2.I like their style of writing. So I visit them often seeing what's new or trying to figure out how they did that (adding different widgets). So I have my links set up to say "sites I like to stalk" Just wanted to share that with you because it made me giggle when I saw it. P.S. I did add you to my stalking sites. I just love how you are so willing to help others with your advice. 6. Persist But Don’t Annoy , but don’t stalk them! I am really laughing at this because I feel like a stalker sometimes.

In my case, I'm currently in #5 - Prove yourself first. I'm in the middle of building reputation online - I'm sticking to what I'm doing right now and I (hope) I know what I'm talking about :P I previously network with the same level blogger (#4 on your list) - unfortunately he sold his blog, so I have to find other bloggers to network :) Cheers! Darren,

I'll present a question I thought about some time ago. "How much time (maybe daily,weekly) do you invest in promoting a site not your own? I created a system where I promote other sites on ues and thurs for a certain amount of time because like you said networking or surfing forums and so on, will eat up your time if you allow it. Realistically, I even time myself because time escapes me when I'm messing around on Digg, or Stumble Upon. I find it easy to over do any particular aspect of site development, networking, writing, etc. I like your approach. Writing content in the morning and networking in the afternoon. this is excellent stuff Darren, I really mean it. I’ll present a question I thought about some time ago.

Just because we're interacting in cyberspace doesn't mean that basic values of integrity, honesty, generosity, etc. don't apply. The days of looking people in the eye and a firm handshake may be numbered, but the principles are the same. Don’t most of these principles apply to building any good relationships?
