There is no doubt that interacting is the way to go. Even if you don’t post often, (like me :-(), commenting on people’s post puts you in mind and builds relationships. This helps out whenever you do post and after a while people become much more likely to respond.

When you respond to a response it says you care:-) People like it when you care. Even when they say they don’t.

I had let go of my commenting but am trying to get back into it. With all of these new communities it becomes much more profitable to participate! Even without profit it is just more satisfying.
