I am all for the social networking but there is a time to draw the line and that is when it is becoming a bigger waste of time than it’s worth and that is what was happening to me.

So what I did was to stop going to forums all together. Perhaps that was a little drastic but I did manage to get back on track with my web sites.

I just needed a little self control and maybe a time limit and only heading to the forums after the rest of my updating is done for the day.

I think perhaps I was also spreading myself over too many categories and should have focused more on the categories that were directly related to content on my sites.

Great point about participating on forums that don’t give negative ratings. I didn’t even think about that one.

I have a few forums that I haven’t been to in a year or two, that were very helpful to me when I was starting out. I think I might drop by and see what and who is new.
