		<description>Hi Jorge,

Thanks for including us in the post. Gee, no pressure, though! :)

One clarification -- our services aren&#039;t &lt;em&gt;specifically&lt;/em&gt; for bloggers; they&#039;ll work for any site with an RSS feed. That said, most commonly that applies to bloggers, and certainly some of our tools, like &lt;a href=&quot;http://analytics.postrank.com&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Analytics&lt;/a&gt;, are blogger-focused. (And we&#039;re working on expansion ideas for Analytics for the future now, as well.)

The matching initials thing is a mix up I already see fairly often. Of course, once we buy Google that won&#039;t be a problem anymore. ;)

I totally agree that it&#039;s about the quality of your audience, or, more accurately in our sphere, the &lt;em&gt;engagement&lt;/em&gt; of your audience. I&#039;m not 100% comfortable tying the different ways readers interact with online content to their &quot;quality&quot;, though certainly there are activities that show more engagement than others, there comments and such can certainly run the gamut of thoughtfulness, usefulness, and lucidity. :)

We&#039;d love to become the ranking/measurement go-to service, though of course there&#039;s a lot of work to do to get there. Having folks like yourself help us spread the word (and provide feedback), certainly helps a lot. Thanks again!</description>
