Thanks for posting those links, mce, they look as if they might have some useful thoughts and info.

I started my blog "Erotica Is My Trade" in 2011 to promote my freelance business and my self-published erotica ebooks. I write about my long career in porn and also do the occasional book or clip review. I never figured on making money with it, but using it for the self-promotion.

Although I know I get visitors from all over, I get very few comments and sometimes feel as if I'm sending my posts into a void! Other bloggers have complained about this. Comments used to be more common before the days of rampant texting, I think...people are writing enough just communicating in their daily lives.

Still, I continue with the blog to push the ebooks and keep my portfolio online. It's hard to tell if the blog helps with the ebook sales, but I enjoy blogging: it's a lot like editing magazines was for me, combining writing with the visual aspects. And I was a magazine editor for almost thirty years.
