I would probably go with auto-reply as soon as he post something, receive the text message and then edit the reply to something meaningful. Fun read! :)

Ah, great idea. I did not think of that :)

well, are you going to try it?

Probably not, I am pretty convinced at this point that Mark ignores those comments anyway.

Well, I know this wasn't your intention, but you could always "sell" that top spot and edit in the content from a top marketer, keeping it subtle enough that it looks legit.

Also, Mark is just one person. Imagine if you opened this script up for use targeting the fans of any celebrity / influencer. Companies would be willing to pay a LOT of money to be able to reach those audiences.

Can't believe I'm advocating comment spam, but sometimes the opportunities jump out at me. :)

It's a valid point, but I personally wouldn't want to build a business build on spamming.

The idea was just great akras14...sadly you're not interested in effecting that again. Would've loved the outcome.

eric001... Perfect, just perfect logic
