Reminder: #wclw chat today – How to get more blog comments
By Michelle V. Rafter on September 28, 2011 | Leave a response
Want more comments on your blog? Or need a way to deal with readers who leave nasty comments?
Join us today for the next WordCount Last Wednesday live chat, where we’re discussing blog comments – how to get more of them and how to tackle bad ones.
As a special treat, we’ll be joined by writer Laura Laing, who learned a thing or two about comment backlash after a USA Today Weekend review of her new book, Math for Grownups, included some factual errors that caused an online dustup.
The chat takes place today at 10 a.m. Pacific time. Use the Twitter hashtag #wclw to participate.
After introductions, we’ll answer the following questions:
After that we’ll open it up to a general discussion.
Use TweetGrid, TweetChat or HootSuite to follow along. You might want to alert followers that you’ll be tweeting more than usual during the chat, and suggest they use Muuter.com to temporarily mute you if they don’t want to tune into the conversation.
If you can’t make it, I’ll post highlights on Thursday, Sept. 29.
See you online.
