Join the iReply movement!
Jun 30, 2007 Blogging
My buddies from MeAndMyDrum and Brown Thoughts and myself have put together a simple idea for a new movement in blogging. If you’re a blog author who believes that it’s important to be active within your own blog community which you’ve created and reply to as many comments as possible, our new iReply movement is for you. Display our little button and let your readers know that you appreciate what they have to say and won’t just ignore them.
Simply save our button up there on the left, upload it to your server and either link to this post or create a new post of your own talking about the movement and why you support it. Easy enough, right?
If you’d like a version of the button that will work on darker backgrounds you can use this one instead.
UPDATE: If you’re unsure how to add this badge to your blog, the simplest way is to either upload it to the server where your blog is hosted, or to your favorite image hosting site (like photobucket), then do something like this:
<img src=”http://yourURL.com/ireply_litebg.gif”>
That’s it! :)
A domain is a name given to a web site the way a filmmaker or a director or screenwriter gives a name to a movie. Some wireless internet providers provide domains with cheap web hosting. The web hosting services can range from $3-$30 per month. Most of these cheap web hosting companies can be found through your ISP’s. When thinking about hosting a site, illustrations about cameras or a canon hv 20 should be enlarged for better publicity. Agree to a high cpc to a website owner so that they continue to improve their site for attraction purposes.

August 2nd, 2007 16:58 by Linda R. Moore [IMG I Reply Movement]I’ve recently begun following Ordinary Folk, the blog of a cartoonist and inadvertent internet-schmoozer. Go look and see what I mean. On this site, I found the I Reply movement. The gist is that the blogosphere is one great big conversation. If people take the trouble to reply on your blog, you should take the time to respond, even if it’s only to say “Cool!”

June 30th, 2007 at 4:18 pm
Haha…not bad for a few minutes of work I must say :D
June 30th, 2007 at 4:56 pm
Great idea, really. Do you mind if I change the little dot on the i from red to pink?
I think this is a good idea because it is more rewarding to read blogs that you know are not just in it for themselves, and that they are also looking to partake in something greater than themselves (and their blog).
June 30th, 2007 at 5:01 pm
Certainly Danielle…go for it :D
I was hoping you’d join our little movement :)
June 30th, 2007 at 5:19 pm
Great, being matchy-matchy is important to me!
Not only am I going to join, I am going to promote this idea. While I really like the U Comment – I Follow movement – your new movement seems a little bit more “about blogging” and less about SEO. And while I am a big fan of SEO and all forms of search engine marketing, the You Comment – I Reply movement is much more “in the spirit of blogging”.
Total Props!
June 30th, 2007 at 6:54 pm
I’ve seen this on Me and My Drum and Brown Thoughts already. :) And I like the idea.
June 30th, 2007 at 7:14 pm
@Danielle: Exactly. The whole SEO thing is nice and all but at the end of day I’m not checking my google stats, I’m replying to comments and hoping I picked up a few new readers :)
June 30th, 2007 at 7:17 pm
@Grace: Hi Grace :) Yeh it was a product of a VERY quick brainstorming session between myself, Mark and the Baron :D I hope it will catch on with more folks!
June 30th, 2007 at 10:55 pm
@Danielle: “matchy-matchy”. Is that a technical term? LOL Thanks for promoting the concept!
@Grace: I know I speak for all of us when I say that we do appreciate you stopping by our blogs!
@Mike: you’re a whiz with pixels! Thanks again for creating this logo, buddy!

It’s too late, I need sleep :P
Great idea though :D

Hahaha…it means you reply on YOUR blog, Maria :D
July 1st, 2007 at 9:16 am
Oh wow Mike, what a great idea! I personally would be more likely to leave a comment on someone’s blog if I saw this badge and also go back to see their response because you know it would be there for sure. Incredible, I’m snagging one for my blogs.
I’m working on some blogger awards right now, wish me luck, God only knows what color they’ll be, lol.

hi mike!!!!! i just found out about this movement on Barons blog!!! this is a fantastic idea!!!!! u know i always reply to every little comment!! so my question now is u hv a dark/brighter background version what about a pinky version on the badge!!! hehehe:D
July 1st, 2007 at 6:55 pm
Gimme a few and I’ll see what I can come up with :)
July 1st, 2007 at 7:39 pm
hey mike!! i would appreciate but anyway i like the black version!! its on my blog already!! ill try to write a post about this movement this week…
if u can get a pink version that would be absolutely fabulous!! thanks!!!!!

Oh I’ve always wondered what it meant “You comment, I reply.” How dorky of me to not realize from the get-go that it’s as simple as that: someone comments, you reply. Haha. DUH. I wish I can join this movement, but I’m afraid I would fail miserably because I don’t have a lot of time. Maybe after the wedding and if I ever get less hours at work? :D
July 1st, 2007 at 9:18 pm

I’m doing the best to be party of the movement Mike. I first saw this on Brown’s blog, but glad to see you’re a part of it as well. May not quite as big or as important as the “I follow” movment, but it’s still important, none the less.
July 2nd, 2007 at 6:09 pm
I think it’s pretty darn important…for me at least. The nofollow is indeed big, but for me the number one thing is communication and interaction on blogs. I’m really not concerned about nofollow on the blogs I read. I comment on them because I enjoy reading them, not because I hope I can get another backlink :) That being said I do have nofollow applied here and of course always will.
July 3rd, 2007 at 12:31 am
That is an awesome idea. :) I shall join!!

Yess, *most* people actually get what we were trying to do :)
July 8th, 2007 at 6:25 pm
Hi,
I dont know why you allow so many people to allow them to download the pic from your server.
Cant they not upload it??
Is this a small secret to some traffic ??
July 8th, 2007 at 6:38 pm
They can’t upload a picture from their server until they download it from somewhere, no?
There’s no traffic involved. It’s about saving bandwidth.
July 8th, 2007 at 10:12 pm
[...] While reading Mike’s blog at Ordinary Folk I read of a new blogging movement that he, along with the bloggers at MeAndMyDrum and Brown Thoughts, have devised aimed at promoting community participation, and to identify bloggers that interact with those that comment on their blogs. Check out his post here about the You Comment I Reply Movement. [...]
July 13th, 2007 at 12:44 pm
[...] 1. Reply to Your Comments If people are leaving you comments that you let flap in the breeze, you might as well be taking them by the hand to the big door marked exit. People participate in blogging because they want to be heard. If you’re not acknowledging someone’s comments, you’re not fulfilling their need and you shouldn’t be surprised when they don’t come back. Think I’m wrong? A bunch of dedicated bloggers have actually gotten together to combat such unsociable behavior and have gathered themselves under the iReply banner! [...]

Responding to comments and getting responses to mine are one of the things that I love so much about blogging. The interaction is what got me interested in it in the first place.

OK, so it adds another administrative adventure to your daily chores, but it’s not that hard to do :)

August 11th, 2007 at 7:15 pm
@Linda: That’s not a bad idea. However the one thing that bugs me about those blogroll thingies is that they list sooo many links at a time. I’m not a huge fan of displaying really long blogrolls in my sidebar =/
The other option would be putting the blogroll on a separate page I suppose. I wonder how much in the way of CSS styling you can do with them? If I remember right that blogrolling site allows you to use CSS but if you have more than one blogroll you’re using with them it effects every one instead of letting you style them separately =/
August 11th, 2007 at 8:59 pm
Mike: I’ve gotten round that by using an icon to link to page/s with blogrolls. I have exactly the same problem you do with the long, long lists. (They are also slow-loading.)
You can also get some devices/bits of code which displays them in a drop-down list.
Take a look at the bottom of ravensroads.com to see what I mean. (I actually dislike that big glob of “shiny” at the bottom, but nor am I quite ready to give up on my shinies yet.) ;-)
I haven’t bothered with styling or delved too deep into it; there may be other options than blogrolling, but I don’t know.
August 23rd, 2007 at 2:11 pm
I’m in with great pleasure… there is nothing more annoying than a comment left without recognition… ;-)

how do i get that??
TIA!

@Polli: Well there you are!! :) Did you get my emails from weeks ago? I can’t say for sure about the problem you’re experiencing with the link, but may I recommend that you remove the onlick/tracker stuff to see if at least it works in its basic form?
I hope you’re doing well.

Seriously, this is such a great idea. So many times I comment on blogs and feel like it just goes into the black hole – and I don’t want my readers to feel like that!
Thanks for this idea ~ it will be on my next blog post!
