[Businessblogconsulting.com] Jim Turner : Business Blog Consulting: How does this practice effect blogging and business? Many of the corporate blogs we talk about here are written by CEO’s, company employees and C level officers within each of the companies. What would happen if these bloggers also added to the comment sections of their blogs, bolstering their own opinions and seemingly inflating the traffic and comments on their sites, or berating other commenters to their own benefit? I for one would think that if it was uncovered that a CEO entertained this practice that person would be tarred and feathered and would lose any credibility the blog might be producing. The conversations produced by blogs must remain an open forum, and they must have credibility in order to withstand the onslaught of criticism a company might endure. This practice could make it very difficult for a PR person to repair something that has been done behind closed doors in the company.
