, 2008-06-07 The best way to get started to establish blog comments is to create a selection of blogs that are relevant to your niche and then engage on the discussions from there. By starting from you own niche you will be able to have a higher pillar to work from.
It would be best to subscribe to RSS feed so that you can keep updated and follow-up with comments as soon as an interesting post is published. Most blogging platforms also allow you to insert your website URL.
This will then be used to hyperlink your name to your website. Those who are more curious about the writer or the post and desire to find out more can click on the name to see what kind of website you have created yourself on the other side.
If the blog where you left a comment is a popular one, you could end up receiving hundreds of visitors from just this one comment.
You might wonder though, does commenting actually work to drive traffic today in the more crowded blogosphere? If, even the basic advice is followed and you get out there and become a prolific commenter, it will build traffic.
It does work best when your blog is new. You will still receive traffic from blog comments even if your blog is one or to years old, but by that time your average daily traffic most likely will be too large to be able to notice many new incoming visitors.
There are some guild lines you should follow. Do not spam as many blogs as possible with as many comments as possible. People will recognize a self-promotional comment from far away and it will soon be deleted.
Make sure that you are adding value to the conversation with your comment. That should be something easy and natural if you comment on blogs that are related to your niche. If you don't know many blogs on your niche just head to Google and start searching.
There are certain types of comments that will attract more attentions than others. Those that are most popular are funny comments, thought provoking comments and controversial comments, are just a few examples.
If you are trying to establish blog comments to make money on the Internet then pay attention to the size of the blog where you will be engaging in the conversation. It is also important how active the community is over there.
Commenting still works to generate traffic if you are persistent and it gets the attention of the bloggers that you focus on, which is demonstrated by this post I'm making now.
