Is it possible to see who have liked your blog post ?
-
I was wondering if you have a like button on the blog and people use it to like a post , is it possible to find out who all have liked the post ? ( there is a counter to show the number of people who have liked the post, but could not figure out who have actually clicked the like button )

No, it's not possible for a user to see who has made thumbs up and thumbs down.
There was an interesting discussion about thumbs down on Twitter the other day. Rand said (and I agree) that it does help minimize some flame wars, especially in the comments. Rather than a ton of people saying "that's stupid" or "I can't believe you said that", a thumbs down is a way of more politely expressing disagreement.
I agree, it's never fun to see something you've written have a thumbs down and have no idea why.

Off topic, but a number of youtube negative clicks may be accidental as they have the buttons so small and close together

Is it possible to see who have liked your blog post ?
If only.....
Because the next question is who disliked your blog (or Q&A) response. I had this thought just today. I read a fantastic blog article from Cyrus: http://www.seomoz.org/blog/blog-design-for-seo. This article was everything a fantastic article should be: informative, helpful, thought-provoking, insightful (I'll stop the adjectives here) and overall kick-ass. It even included a world-class infographic.
115 thumbs up, 4 thumbs down. I have absolutely no problem with anyone offering a thumbs down. I just wish they left a comment offering ANY feedback as to what they disliked about the article. Maybe it was a misclick? Maybe they disagreed with one of the 15 points. Maybe anything, but by sharing feedback it would save the author and other readers from wondering what might be wrong and offer the author an opportunity to improve next time.
I run into this same feeling when I watch awesome youtube videos like this one (Bon Jovi + Jennifer Nettles sing You Cant Go Home as they volunteer and help Habitat for Humanity build a house for a family): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5CeX5VEo10c. There always seems to be that 1% of people who click thumbs down.
Some people have road-rage, I have evaluation rage. When that 1% thumbs down and don't leave any feedback I just want to.....
Oh well, this reply will probably receive the most thumbs down of any I ever offered, but I can at least laugh about it

Manual submission vs automated submission to social bookmarking sites for blog posts
Howdy Mozzers! Say we're creating great content on our blog and would like this content to be seen and shared by as many people possible. Should we submit our blog posts manually to social book marking sites or use an automated service like Only Wire? The advantage of using automation is obvious, saves time on submission. Are there disadvantages? Is google bot going to raise an eyebrow and give us a dirty look? Cheers! MozAddict

Outreach person different than guest post write
Hello, For a current client of mine, the person doing the outreach (me) and the person who is going to write the guest post (expert) are different people. Also, the expert doesn't want their real name published. They're going to use their first and middle name instead of first and last. How do I taylor my outreach and link building to accommodate the above two facts? BTW: The expert's picture is on the site if that helps, in an "Ask the Expert" menu tab Thanks

Any facebook likes/shares/activities analytics tools
From time to time I take a look at competitors' website and the activities on their social media channel like facebook. There are many times that their facebook likes increase much faster/more than we do while I havenot been able to figure out why they get likes much more that we do. Compared with the competitors we have very similar activities: uploading content to facebook daily and have competition every week and answer every question about our services and have faq session sometime I think our content/information are even more valuable than our competitors. I think they are possibly doing something more value-added to be able to target more people? Is that any tools that I can use to get any insight? e.g. some activities that I am not able to see? Have done some research for last few weeks but I did not manage to findout. Thanks

Can you have FB Comments post to a business page?
I am looking into incorporating Facebook Comments into my site. When commenting it gives the option to the commentor to post it on their FB wall. Can it be setup to post everyone's comments on my site on our FB business page? I tried to use the commenting tools while logged in as a page, but it said I had to be logged in as a person. If not, how do I get notified someone has commented on my website through FB Comments so I can reply?
