		<description>Michelle, I started using Twitter for my business. I try to use the list, but do not know if the same ideas apply to a company. What do you think? Should I also have a Twitter account or personal account business enough?

&lt;b&gt;Viagra&lt;/b&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Generic Viagra&lt;/b&gt;

		<description>Hi Margaret, 

I started creating a list of DoFollow CommentLuv KeywordLuv blogs and need to greatly add to it.  You might want to drop by the post I&#039;ll feature in CommentLuv and check it out. 

Do feel free to leave links to any others you know of no matter how many in the comments. I will probably have to manually approve your comment and I will move the links up into the body of the post too.</description>

		<description>Gail - I trust you, so always feel free to answer questions from other people who comment. (after all, that is part of having a blog too, right?)</description>

		<description>Hi Michelle, 

I hope you don&#039;t mind my answering Shari. I can tell you why Akismet is capturing your comments. They have you flagged as a spammer along with tons of other high quality frequent commentators. That is getting so common that I have disabled Akismet in all of my blogs. 

That isn&#039;t a total fix though because WordPress apparently uses Akismet&#039;s spammer list to keep comments from going live immediately. There are numerous posts in my blog about the problems with Akismet including how to request they unflag you (which will probably be temporary as they tend to repeatedly flag active commentators). 

I even have a couple test pages up so you can find out if all your comments are going to spam or not. You also need to know that if you see a blank white page THAT comment just got deleted and the blogger will never see it. There is a setting in the Akismet configuration that controls that and I have a post on where it is. 

I am actively trying to find a WP plugin developer who can create a blog commenting whitelist / blacklist plugin that we control.</description>

		<description>Hi - I&#039;ve been checking out some blogs which use KeywordLuv - and have come across some good blogs (plus some fairly standard ones!), but I hadn&#039;t spotted the twitterlink before;  what a bonus!  Thanks for this post, it has certainly opened my eyes to some additional tactics for meeting new people.  I think I have to change my twitter strategy as well - obviously quality posting and conversations are the way to go.
Many thanks
Margaret

		<description>April - there are a number of different WordPress plugins you can use. Digg Digg, ReTweetMeme and Share This are just a few of the many different ones out there.</description>

		<description>Calvin: How you want to &quot;work&quot; your Twitter accounts is really more based on your personal preferences. In my case I opted to have only one account for myself and my Virtual Assistant business. In my situation I did not want to have to maintain two separate accounts. Additionally, who I am as an individual also impacts how I am in business and I want prospective clients to get a true sense of who I am before deciding I may be the Virtual Assistant for them.</description>
