Hey everyone,

Quick questions for all of you: Are you noticing that there's been a solid surge in virtual assistants (VAs) on your website? Are you appreciating their comments? Are they adding to the discussion?

I'm just a little curious, as I've found some of the comments to be a bit… nonsensical. I've debated deleting them, but I'm keeping them around for a little while longer.

I'd love to know what you think about this, and whether you've been doing anything about it.

Thanks,

Sam

I've had a couple of comments where I've had a suspicion that they are by VAs as they have come from known PF blogs, but the English hasn't been great. If they didn't come from VAs, I've probably just insulted a few people.

For the time being, I don't see why I should delete them, but equally I'm not convinced how much in the way of value they add.

 

I would love to hear the thoughts of people who are using VAs for comments. Are you doing it to build relationships with other bloggers or simply to get a few click-throughs each month? If it is the latter, do you think this is the best use of the VA's resources?

I used a VA for a while, I followed the comments that she left and they were very cohesive and clear. I stopped after a bit just to refocus my efforts and expenses but I was very happy with the service.
