		<description>You&#039;ve cited useful points here.  You&#039;re right, building a good relationship to your readers, followers or customers isn&#039;t that easy.  You really need to focus on their needs and they will eventually love you because of your attitude towards them.  It may take you a while and even cost you a lot of money when you outsource everything, but it&#039;s worth of your effort, time and money.</description>

The message is very much the same but you&#039;ve explained in a very easy to read and understand style.

Thank you for sharing</description>

		<description>Beautiful article full of wisdom &amp; good advices. Tks for putting it out! I believe in being true to our nature and offering what we&#039;d like to see from others. I like music, beautiful photography, humor so I share those with my followers. I learn a lot everyday from all those kindred spirits out there, uplifting my days.
Be the change you want to see in the world said Gandhi..
Being one self also implies being there for others, open to their comments and desires. It&#039;s a mixture of intuition, objective reality &amp; creativity. I love it!</description>

		<description>Saying &quot;if you&#039;re a site owner, credit your content&quot; is all well and good if you&#039;re appealing to peoples better nature. 

But the real problem lies with the folks who do know better and just can&#039;t be bothered, or simply know that the average stumbleupon user doesn&#039;t care where an image or video came from as long as they get to watch it. Once they&#039;ve had their laugh or whatever, they&#039;ll simply click on the stumble button and won&#039;t bother clicking any credit or attribution links.

There is simply no pint on relying on the good graces of others, you have to take steps t protect your own content. Doesn&#039;t mater if it&#039;s image watermarking, preventing hotlinking etc, you&#039;ve got to do it yourself.</description>
