Stalkers are typically frowned upon. Both in terms of being a stalker and having a stalker. I agree that being a stalker does not pay dividends. However, as an Associated Content Writer - or writer for other internet sites - you need a stalker. You may ask, "Why would I need a stalker, let alone put up with one?" Well, putting up with a stalker is not really a choice. A stalker is typically persistent and determined. Stalkers can potentially be slowed down by restraining orders, but a true stalker will find a way to circumvent a restraining order. In the internet age - which I seem to discuss ad nauseam - stalkers can be beneficial, even if simultaneously abhorrent.

As a writer, there is a good chance you have a blog. A stalker will provide hits to your blog on a daily basis. After all, it is a stalker - stalking is what they do. Furthermore, a stalker may post comments, which, more often than not, lead to heated discussions. Why settle for boring discussions when you can have heated stalker discussions? These comment discussions will lead to increased traffic on the blog - in addition to the increased traffic the stalker provides on a daily basis. Increased internet traffic potentially leads to additional stalkers. Why restrict yourself to one stalker when you can let the work of many stalkers exponentially benefit you and your writing?

Whether you write books, articles, short stories, poems or scripts, a stalker will read these - it is their job. By soliciting stalkers, you are creating an automatic audience for yourself and your writing. The more stalkers you have, the bigger your loyal, unwavering audience is. Furthermore, stalkers may compete to be the best stalker. This can only benefit you, the writer. These benefits come in the forms of hits, clicks, traffic, comments, discussions and sales. Stalkers live for this stuff.

No offense, but I don't understand how people can post serious comments in response to this article. Unless there was some subtle sarcasm in that last comment and I missed it. I'll stick with the people that love the article, thanks.

Careful what you ask for...Boredom and a total lack of anything better to do can be a very dangerous combo.

Watching is one thing. Stalking is something else all together. Only truly dedicated watchers can become stalkers.
