Belated Thanks to November Commenters
December 27, 2008 by Lillie

Guest authors, a delayed series, group writing projects, and several seasonal posts made this thank-you post very late, but no less sincere. 115 people left 185 comments in November. Thanks to each of them and to each quiet reader who visits and reads without commenting.

To all who commented as keywords—Toys, Insurance, Acne Treatment, Auto Mechanic: I prefer to respond to people, not keywords. With KeywordLuv, there is absolutely no reason for you not to include your name. John@Toys links to your site with the keyword toys, but it gives me a name to address and makes me think you might have some interest in what you’re commenting on beyond getting a do-follow link. How about a New Year’s resolution to leave your name as well as your keywords when you comment on my blog in the future? I appreciate your comment but would appreciate avoiding the awkwardness of having to respond to a keyword.
If you commented and aren’t listed or if your listing is wrong, please let me know so I can correct it.
Thank you, all my readers—commenters and quiet readers, alike!





















I saw my name again! Thanks for included my name inside the list, Lillie
wilson´s last blog post..Drinking Water is Not Only For Quench Your Thirst!
wilson,
You’re welcome. Thank you for being such a loyal reader and commenter. As long as you continue to comment, you’ll continue to see your name on my monthly lists.
Community is what makes our blogging worth the journey, Lillie. We’ve grew a lot due to our readers, haven’t we? There’s so much to learn still… and so much to share. Thank you for your gift to us. May you have a blessed season and a successful 2009 – and I promise you’ll see more of me around next year.
You know why I’ve been more absent than present in 2008…
All my love,
Mig

Mig,
We’ve missed you, but I’m glad you’ve got your priorities straight. Some things are more important than blogging.
Thank you for your good wishes. We’re enjoying a blessed holiday season and hope you and your loved ones are doing the same. Wishing you and your family your best year ever in 2009!
Why, thank you Lillie for mentioning me. It is not often that I fall into the Outstanding category! Ooh, my head is swelling. Don’t worry, it’s just my cold.

Helen,
Hope you’re over your cold soon. But you are outstanding, whether or not you comment on my blog!
What a thoughtful post! We come here for the valuable info you so freely provide – and you thank us. I’d like to thank you for your generous spirit.
Charlotte,
What a nice thing to say. I love having someone to “listen” to me—without my readers, I’d be talking to myself.
Belated thanks for the link love, Lillie! Happiest Holidays to you!

What a wonderful idea. If imitation is truly a form of flattery then prepare to be flattened… er… flattered

Eric´s last blog post..Pleo Faces Extinction
Eric,
I compile the list manually, but I’ve got a system that makes it go fast. I described how it do in the comments on the thank-you post for April. If you’d like the details, read the comments on that post.
Just out of curiosity how do you make a system with the top commentators? I want to use it but I don’t know how to!
