How to comment on Blogs – Tips

Blog World Ethics

The ‘blogosphere’ is a very close knit community of bloggers. Commenting on blogs can really bring you close to fellow bloggers. Though commenting is healthy, if not done tactfully, it can create a negative impact. They can be offensive and annoying also. Try not to use derogatory or cheap language while commenting. Always write original comments. Don’t copy and paste. There are a few guidelines that you may follow while writing comments.
Blog Comments
Be Honest
Honesty is the best Policy. Whenever you are commenting on a blog, try being honest about what you feel. If you do not like a particular post, don’t leave comments to generate back links to your website. Always read the complete blog before writing any comments, you may actually end up liking what is written.

Don’t write short Comments
Short comments like “nice post” or “very informative” look like spam. They are likely to be ignored. Write slightly longer posts which are informative. You may elaborate on the subject of the blog or raise queries. Write only when you have something valuable to write.

Write your Opinion
It is advisable that you voice your opinion about a blog truthfully. Be illustrative and logical. Don’t use very strong language if you don’t like a particular post. If you don’t agree to a particular idea, you may say so but you should also state your reason for the same.

Address the Blogger by Name
It is a nice gesture to refer to a blogger by name in your comment. It is observed that bloggers pay more attention to comments with names. Comments with names are always more respectful and plus they stand out from the rest of the comments.

Be Polite
Offensive language and strong words are not acceptable while commenting on other people’s blogs. Never create a negative reputation for yourself. It’s acceptable to disagree to a person’s ideas, but even while expressing your disagreement, you should be polite. Always treat a fellow blogger in the same manner you would like him to treat you.

Avoid Spamming
At all cost, do not post spam on other people’s blogs. Random links, irrelevant comments and URLs are not appreciated by moderators in most cases.

Mass Commenting
There are some people who reply to several posts on the same blog in a similar manner. Avoid doing that irrespective of how relevant your comments are. This can be treated as link spamming. Your comments may be deleted. Some people do this to promote back links to their own blogs.
Do not Submit the Same Comment on Multiple Blogs
If you find more than one blog on the same topic, avoid posting the same comment on all of them. There are chances that your comment will be deleted. Make sure that your comments are totally relevant to the blog and are constructive. Comments like “nice post” are ignored in most cases.

Share your Ideas
Your comments should be a reflection of your ideas and beliefs. They should express your opinion about a particular topic. If you manage to convey your opinion, your post will be extremely valuable.

Write your URL in the URL box only
Always write your blog’s URL in the URL box provided separately. It is rude to paste links to your website in the comment box.

Don’t Put too Many Keywords in the Name Field
Moderators don’t mind if you put your name or your company’s name in the name field. But some blog owners object if you stuff the name field with too many keywords. Always keep in mind that blogs are a platform for sharing ideas and not promoting websites.

Commenting for Networking
You can use the comment box of the blog to interact with blog owners on a continual basis. This builds a healthy relationship between two fellow bloggers. You can even invite the blogger to be a guest writer on yours. It will add variety to your blog.
