Why don’t you track back?
I am a regular reader of How-Do and I am surprised how many readers do not track back – this could be applied to many sites that offer track back
Of course many use How-Do to anonymously pour scorn on some subjects of the stories. I know one leading digital marketer in Manchester that really enjoys having a bemused laugh at some of the bitchiness.
However many comments are supportive or neutral. Yet no open identity and no tracking back. A missed opportunity to use a powerful site to boost links and search engine ranking in the short and longer term.
You would have thought marketing people would be putting small comments just for that purpose, even if the comment wasn’t saying much. It also has a PR value.
Just a note on my last post about YouTube blocking a satirical look at Sarah Palin. It could be just that there are copyright issues. But if I initially got the wrong end of the stick – and I cannot say what the reason is with certainty – surely it makes sense to communicate the reason?
Lack of communication creates more unnecessary problems than it should.
When it comes down to it all old and new media it is just about communication, connection and conversation.
