Hi Gautam, you have touched really an important and useful aspect of blogging.

When I started blogging, it was my fortunate luck that I happened to meet some nice souls like Ileane, Imran (bloggingJunkie) and the good relationship with them helped me to run the road much faster.

In fact blogging is helping each other and working cooperatively. When you are ready to offer, you find other more eager to help you.

Gautam nice write up. I’m not sure where it started being important to build relationships but I think I noticed a big change in 2007 right near the end of the year. We have so much competition in the blogosphere building relationships is the only way to keep a competitive edge.

I’m always writing about building relationships even within social websites such as the ones you mentioned. This will help you get votes, engages etc…

To be honest I’m sure my online blogging relationships is what has made blogengage as large as it is today.

This can’t be done only by adding a friend on facebook. That does not mean that you made a relationship.
Some people think that if they have more people as friends in facebook they have good relations. It is not true, a relation means much more than adding someone as a friend, which means nothing.

Actually blogs are more like businesses to us and we take readers as our customers. And in order to become a great business, the support should be really good and that is in the form of interactions that we do in blogging.

Give and take and respecting each other is a must!

I think attending conferences is even better than all these networking techniques as it is more personal and it is a better way to build a relationship.

Yes you really can, if you are not good with interacting people. The essential part is networking and that is to be mastered here.

I think we all need to change according to the circumstances and to be ahead, you need to be flexible. Relationship blogging is a tad bit new concept but it is still good for building subscribers

It’s clear to us that blogging has becoming a main relationship building platform, especially if one is to look for consistent networking and support from one another. Personalities and ethics always come in mind to maintain a beneficial relationship blogging, it’s impossible to do everything alone like before. We need friends, audiences, clients.. wherever there are conversations, there will always be a relationship to maintain.

Give and take, think on behalf of others, be respectful – exactly how we shall treat anyone, on or offline.

I think the ideas are good and I would almost suggest you add a number 6 to the list:

6. Attend Conferences

I know they can be expensive, but there are others that are cheaper. I paid $6k to go to Elite Retreat back in October but I met so many people that I can bounce ideas off and they are very responsive and helpful. If I didn’t start a relationship with them in person this would have been nearly impossible to do.

Wonderful insight, Gautam! This is something I really missed as a new blogger and still need to work on =)

I was modeling my blogging on the giant news outlets and there are rarely interactive authors on those sites. I suspect they will need to change that in the near future.
