Great feedback.
Connecting is key. Especially since there is so much new content being created you have to go to the humans and actually connect or they will forget about you. They have to know you are still alive! You need to make sure you are always inside their head.
A simple trick to boost anything in your life is to contact 10 companies in your favourite niche per day. Watch what happens when the opportunities starts to roll in. Because they will!
I would even do 100-X. You feel so good after give 100X in value that the response doesn't matter.
Btw isn't majority of peoples eyes at the comment section more than blog posts even? Since people are always curious what other peoples opinions are.
Also that people love a response that is made for them. And you could discover more niche content that may fit you better. We are social creatures after all!
good thoughts, buddy... after all we are all human... as of such we are "social beings" hence it is in our nature to connect with one another. Problem though I found is that sometime it aint that easy due to a diversity of reasons - langueage, culture, etc.... however once someone is willing then it don´t matter at all as they are going for it no matter what.... and this is exactly what we should be trying to enforce evenmore here
