Truthfully, it's only fair, as you've seen me write about in the past. And if people like what you write, then they'll visit you, and that can't ever be a bad thing. As for the goals, I figured you were just pulling my leg on that one, but I went with it anyway. :-) I’m starting to see you in many places, John, so I think you are taking the commenting on other blogs to heart.

I was just teasing about setting goals related to blogging. I'm a firm believer in goals and action steps. I always analyze a project and define precisely what I need to do before starting it. I'm a very left-brained analyst when it comes to things like this. I posted a comment on the blog post you referenced, too. I wouldn't get even a small portion of what I do completed if I didn't have a plan and the exact steps I need to take to accomplish it. I was forced to learn these things many years ago when I took on a project I really wasn't prepared to manage. I learned quickly that goals were only part of the story, especially when more than one person is involved in accomplishing something. When it comes to blogging, I don't set goals like post 5 times a week. I think in terms of getting page one placement on the search engines for a particular topic or keyword. I'm trying to also include the idea of reading and commenting on several blogs and forums on a regular basis. That's what I meant when talking about setting goals for my blogging. It may be time to make a list of blogs and forums I want to visit and define the action steps I want to complete every day. The goals would be better placement in the search engines and more visitors to my sites. The action steps would be visiting a predetermined set of sites and participating on them every day or week or whatever. I haven't done that, but I'm beginning to sense that it can be an important thing to do. Will I actually do it? That's the part I don't know right now. ;) Act on your dream!

I don't think having goals is such a bad thing, though some people think they can be limiting. Just read an interesting blog post today on it, which I commented on: http://www.bloggingfromscratch.com/reaching-your-goals/ Thanks John.

Better start working on yours also. Actually Ajith, I hadn’t set any goals, but it’s something to think about, which will be released at either the end of or beginning of the year.

Hard NOT to like Snoopy, no matter who you are. And also thanks for the heads up on the "dofollow" thing; I've taken care of that. Thanks Steve. Hard NOT to like Snoopy, no matter who you are.
