How To Change Your Status From A "No-Reply Blogger" In A Few Easy Steps

I am a guest poster on IBA, International Bloggers Association. I wanted to share with you what I discovered about being a no-reply blogger. When you comment on a blog post, your email is not attached to the comment. When this happens the writer who replies to your comment has no place to send their reply to you.This occurs because you have not checked a box in the blogger profile section in the blog setup. In a few short steps I will show you what steps to take to correct this no-reply situation.
