I’m a little late with the Roundup this month but here is a list of our most popular posts from July 2007 just in case you missed anything.

• 3 Ways to Track Your Comments - We all know that posting comments on related blogs is great way to get your blog noticed by influential people in your niche. Unfortunately, tracking all those comments can be a real pain.
• 9 Ways to Reach New Audiences With Your Articles - All successful bloggers have been able to create quality content for their readers. Unfortunately, creating quality content doesn’t guarantee success for a blog. Without readers to notice the quality of the writing, nothing is gained. If you’re having trouble getting readers to notice you, consider using some of the methods listed below. They all focus on getting your articles in front of new audiences, which will increase your exposure and your subscriber numbers.
• Expanding Your Blogging Network - What does every successful blogger have in common? They are all part of strong networks with other successful bloggers. Blogging is very community and network based and because of this you should make it a priority to grow your network. As your network grows, so will the level of your success.
• SEO Advice for Bloggers from Matt Cutts - Lisa Barone from BruceClay.com gives a recap of the SEO advice provided by Matt Cutts at the Wordpress Wordcamp this past weekend. There are some interesting tidbits included.
• Effects of the 1000th Comment Contest - I received several requests for a detailed breakdown on how this blog benefited from the 1000th Comment Contest. In this post, I will try to detail the effect that it had on my traffic, the number of comments, and the income from this blog.
• Buying Blog Comments - Many bloggers include commenting on other blogs in their overall marketing strategy and as I have mentioned before, it’s an effective tactic. But what about paying someone else to comment on other blogs for you?
• Sales Page Series: Part Two - In the last installment of the Pajama Professional Sales Page Series, I discussed the questions you should ask yourself before you begin writing your ad copy. In this part of the series, I will outline some of the rules I will follow as I create my ad.
• You Could be a Winner at Contest Blogger - Have you ever discovered a new site and said, “Man, why didn’t I think of that?” That’s how I felt when I heard about Phil Van Treuren’s new project at Contest Blogger.
• Authority Blogger Forum - If you’re like me, one of things you love about blogging is the community aspect. I love sharing ideas and discussing the ins and outs of blogging. I also like to share when I find a good resource.
• PureBlogging Goes Mobile - Some of you know that I am on the road quite a bit because of my “real” job. As a result, I spend a lot of time with my trusty laptop in the hotel at night. But there is something else that helps me check in on the blog and reply to comments when I don’t have time to pull out the laptop.
