I guess there should be a general rule to what can be expected from a commenter and blogger in terms of appropriateness.... this way everyone can agree and things don't get spammed or that there will be relevance in the comment. Great idea, thanks!&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Bill McIntosh</dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 17 Apr 2008 19:11:51 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Blog Comment Policy</title><link>http://www.toprankblog.com/2006/11/blog-comment-policy/#comment-17126287</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Excellent policy!

This is a blog about how a blogger who works for a company that runs the Internet, (if there ever was an owner it would be Google, Sorry Bill). How did Matt get all his followers to post all these comments on only what Matt and Google itself knows?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;SEO is no longer. It is all paid for, and we all know that. The sad part is Google plays this game as if it’s it’s |Wii.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Google did what Yahoo! said it would never do. That is, placing graphics on search result pages. I had trouble with the question SPAM blocker to make a new post, (the sum of 3+9) I thought was a trick question.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Remember everyone, this is not rocket science. Google simply did what Yahoo! said they would do. Nothing original has come from Google. I do prefer Google because of the lack of graphics, even prefer lynx.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;2007 Predictions. Google will have less than 1 billion in cash by year end. That’s how fast things change in the infancy of a techlological revolution.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The company most responsible for this unflattering event?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;-It hasn’t even built a website yet, has no domain, and does not care.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">lory</dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 14 Nov 2007 19:55:19 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Blog Comment Policy</title><link>http://www.toprankblog.com/2006/11/blog-comment-policy/#comment-17126280</link><description>&lt;p&gt;I do occasionally use names or handles in the name field, especially when relevant to SEO Expert or SEO Podcast, which are the names I've used for quite sometime and I provide other content on my own site relevant to that.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I know that this is a side benefit to participants in a conversation, but I guess you realize that as well.  It should probably be weighed against the quality and relative frequency of a person's involvement.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I think your comment policy is well thought out though, and overall very fair.  It would be nice to have better plugins for these blog platforms that made it easier to manage spam links.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Joe Beccalori</dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 10 Nov 2007 02:37:36 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Blog Comment Policy</title><link>http://www.toprankblog.com/2006/11/blog-comment-policy/#comment-17126279</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Excellent policy!

You're fine.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;It's the "buy viagra" "cialis" people that annoy me. Also people who have never commented before but load up on the keywords. It just looks bad.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Lee Odden</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 07 Nov 2006 16:10:44 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Blog Comment Policy</title><link>http://www.toprankblog.com/2006/11/blog-comment-policy/#comment-17126266</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Hi Lee,&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I've been using this location based keyword as a handle for a long time. This is how people know me. I make it a rule to never post my name or email address. Can I still make comments?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Aloha,&lt;br&gt;Dave.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Hawaii SEO</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 07 Nov 2006 15:59:54 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Blog Comment Policy</title><link>http://www.toprankblog.com/2006/11/blog-comment-policy/#comment-17126265</link><description>&lt;p&gt;I reserve the right to make exceptions Aaron.
