		<description>I think point number 9 is especially important. If you can write in a particularly unique way and remain true to your convictions (especially important for political blogs) people respect that.   
 
Speaking from my own experience, I appreciate a particular blog &quot;voice&quot; and will return to hear it (even if I don&#039;t agree with what it&#039;s saying!). </description>

		<description>Some useful points there. I think that showing your personality thru your writing style is the most difficult thing to do but its probably the most important point. 
 
I have tried to use a few of these techniques with my own blogs, I hope that it has paid off.  :smile:  
 
I just noticed: 
 
&lt;i&gt;Thanks to everyone who takes the time to make a comment :)&lt;/i&gt; 
 
Thats a really nice personal touch  :lol: </description>

		<description>Good point Mani. A lot of bloggers use pictures very effectively and readers are able to feel like they know them a little bit better. 
 
Jennifer, 
I don&#039;t know if you&#039;re in the minority or not, but I think the key word in what you said is &quot;generic.&quot; Of course all automated replies are going to be somewhat generic, but I&#039;ve received one or two that were written very well, and even though I knew it was automated it still made me feel more appreciated because of what was said. Personally at this time I don&#039;t use the plugin because I prefer to manually send emails sometimes to new readers. I have gotten a number of very positive responses with those emails. </description>

		<description>I never could get Comment Relish to work.  And I never have seen Kevin drop by My New Hustle! :( 
 
Maybe at least one of the two will change. :) </description>

		<description>One more point I&#039;d like to add Steven - Adding a photo of the author may be a good idea. Right? 
Or probably a mascot like the Superman here on BT. 
 
It helps readers to connect to the blog and the author visually. A personal touch - as you said. 
 
Cheers!

		<description>I maybe in the minority.  However, I hate getting those dumb generic Comment Relish e-mails when I visit a new site.  I wish people would stop advertising that plug in.  It isn&#039;t as good for you as you think it is.  Why not send a personal actual contextual message if you have to send a message?  Better...why not just respond right on your site and not e-mail at all. </description>
