		<description>It&#039;s been around for a bit, but still very disorienting. 

Another is this - a few imes I&#039;ve found other Dennis Edell&#039;s in the same threads as me on other blogs....different comments and URL&#039;s but same name.

Of course I&#039;m not the only DE on the planet (Google yourselves for a good laugh), but what are the odds? I just don&#039;t see the point.

		<description>Hey guys ... if you&#039;re reading this ... I wanted to show you one of the tricky forms of spam that&#039;s popping up. It somehow copies another commenter&#039;s comment and puts it as their comment. This is some of Angie&#039;s exact wording ... so I have disabled the link for this post but I did want to point it out so you can learn to watch for it on your own blog. *SmiLes* Definitely a CP! LOL</description>

		<description>Hmm good food for thought. I would think more of the person if they commented without using keywords as their name but maybe after a few good posts, it would be OK. Still undecided how I feel about that. LOL

Great suggestion from Dennis about just pulling a question from the emails and bold that then have your reply/answer in gray or something so they all stand out.  Just thinking out loud here...

		<description>I must agree with Angie here. I love the idea of Q&amp;A, but I honestly could not get through it. Could you just siphon out the actual questions?

OK off now to contact you on bootcamp, somehow I got unsubscribed before. :)

		<description>Hey Angie ~ How are you? Better I hope. 

Thank you soooo much for your comment. We really went back and forth on the way to break up the emails ... I&#039;ve read and re-read them so of course they make sense to me LOL and I&#039;m sorry they were jumbled for you. There are sooo many emails that we hesitated to post it all at once (would that help or make it worse?). There is a ton of back and forth so I just put them chronologically ... 
As for Blogger ... you know how I feel about that - and in some later emails I definitely try to get her to warm up to the idea LOL
The anchor text commenting is an issue for some people which is why I tell her to leave her name on there and I&#039;d also always recommend signing your comment with your name too if you&#039;re going to use any type of anchor text in the name field (I forgot to meention that and I don&#039;t remember if it&#039;s in the comment post). I&#039;m from the side of the fence that feels a good/great comment is a good comment and welcomed regardless of anchor text use ... again ... so long as it&#039;s a good comment that contributes (I had her read the comment pussy post for that reason). Each blog owner has their own opinion of the anchor text so it&#039;s great feedback. For me it also makes a difference if someone is commenting often and actually following the blog conversations vs just popping in and spamming for the day (for me any way). What would you think of suggesting using proper name only ... until you&#039;ve commented a certain number of times on the blog ... then would it still bother you if they added some keywords in there after you&#039;ve gotten to know them? 
Thanks again! I truly value your feedback! *huGs*</description>

		<description>I&#039;ll leave some honest feedback (and yes I still have to get back in touch with you via email, just trying to catch up).

This blog post was overwhelming for me personally to read the back and forth.  I lose attention quickly LOL but that&#039;s just me.

I wonder why you wouldn&#039;t recommend that Julie move from blogger to self hosted Wordpress.  

And as for leaving a comment and putting your keyword phrase in the name field, to me that reads spam all over but I have heard of Internet Marketers recommend it lately. I personally don&#039;t like when someone comes to my blog and leaves something for example like Specialty Exercise Bike in the name section. I just delete because it reads spam to me and I know they have no real interest in my blog.  I do usually put my name and the title of my blog in that field though so people remember what blog I&#039;m from but I feel odd putting a keyword phrase like Weight Loss Blog-Angie instead.

Thoughts?
