Talkback

Just a little tiny begging-bowl style post really - I feel a bit like Oliver, asking for ‘more’, however it’s not gruel I want, it’s your feedback. I know you people are out there, simply because Google Analytics tells me that a hundred or more of you log on every day - so how about leaving me some comments, words of wisdom, or just stopping by to inform me that if I post a picture of those black wedge boots one more time, then you’ll come and steal them away in the night? (Sorry about that, but they’re top of the shoe-pile at the moment).
I’d love to hear what you think, although I suppose this could be classed as a bit of a cheeky request since I read all of my favourite blogs through Google Reader and hardly ever comment myself. Maybe if I start, then the comment-karma fairy will come a-visiting…
Anyway, if Jean-Michel Basquiat, Andy Warhol and Tina Chow think you should leave comments, you can’t really argue….

I think you need to comment more. I think on blogs, it’s best to have a bit of a buzz, and if you comment on blogs and they’re returned, then there’s some visual activity. You need to start to build a relationship with readers. Maybe a list of followers on the side is a good start, or a feedburner/bloglovin icon. I also think dates on your posts would be a good idea as it keeps things ordered, and it’s easier to see what’s new. Apart from this you have a good blog, great layout and content, just try not to get frustration, because you seem to have a nice amount of visitors.
The bloglovin icon thing is a good idea, I’ve seen that around loads of my favourite blogs - thanks! And as for commenting more, I really should do, I just never seem to have enough time! I never even though about the dates on posts thing, but I think that’s a great point. Thanks!
