I came across an interest post praising the information provided from one of our Huntsville dentist, and I thought that i would share part of this article with you:
Dr Dean Brandon, a pediatric dentist in Huntsville, Alabama, has an outstanding blog www.cyberdentist.blogspot.com.
Dr. Brandon’s “white spots” post was informative. He seems knowledgeable and because he shared, makes me think he cares–I wish he were in St Louis! But my point in blogging about him is to extract (no pun intended) some lessons from him.
A testament to the quality of his blog, the page I wanted came up VERY high in Google search results.
Interestingly, Dr. Brandon’s post on white spots, written in 2006, has elicited 82 comments to date–though many of these are Dr. Brandon’s replies to reader questions. After skimming the comments, I am absolutely certain he cares because he has personally responded to people, especially in the early years of his blog.
Accountants, lawyers, and other professionals might look at this and assert the following:
- If I got 40 comments on a post, I wouldn’t have time to answer everybody!
- I’m not sure I want to, or should, give away all that “free advice”!
- How does this blog help his local practice when readers are all over the world?? I’m in [insert city] like he’s in Huntsville, so why should I care about a question from a reader in Toledo?
Fair enough. My thoughts below.
