@ALifeOfLight I like your avatar. ;) - I think most have dropped the ball at some time or another with replies, while others have no interest in being involved in replying. 

Yes, it's always an opportunity to make a connection.  Basically, not replying or acknowledging is on the rude side.  Every blogger should put forth their best effort to reply.

@patricksplace Hi Patrick - I think if you spell out that you don't accept guest posts that is a different story.  I don't see that often, but receiving requests when you spell out that you don't would be aggravating.

 @kennethns If I was starting a niche site today I would be on the warpath to find an EMD for that particular niche.  Now the content behind that domain had to be relative with some quality.  Google doesn't want the sites with low quality to benefit from an EMD, and they won't anymore.  Thanks for the question/comment.

 @Lydia Brown Hi Lydia - The blog world is certainly a home away from home.  A lot of great people from all different places and cultures.  It does make the world seem smaller.  It's a great experience.

 @Yourinda Hi Yorinda - In this article, the multi-author concept I was referring to was original work.  Everything on SteamFeed is original, and I won't publish the same article on my blog.  Social Media Today and B2C are multi-author sites, but they republish articles.  They may take some hit since it is a duplicate, that's up for debate.  The original article should have full juice.

 @Naukri Definitely have to manage properly, again easier said than done.  You're likely going to be dealing with many personalities and views.  It surely takes an effort.

 @marquita.herald Hi Marquita - Yes, in many cases such as yours a multi-author blog wouldn't be the correct approach.  Yes, it does get the brain thinking about some possibilities and opportunities.
