Blog Comments and More
As you continue to grow your blog, you will hopefully begin to receive comments on each post that you make. After all, what would a blog be if you were not getting other people involved? Everyday I read five to ten blogs, and some of them have in upwards of 100 comments on each post. Of course, this is not a goal that you will be able to reach in a few days, but definitely something to strive for in the long run.
Another great thing about comments is that you can make a lot of acquaintances this way. Although my blog has only been around for a month or so, I have come to take notice that those who comment really know what they are talking about.
You may have noticed that Danielle from http://www.msdanielle.com/ will leave insightful comments from time to time. And of course, I do my best to head over to her blog and do the same. Her content is quite similar to mine, and this alone has gone a long way in helping me to expand and develop my blog.
Another person who makes regular comments on this blog is V. Neely from http://nutshelljournal.com/. Once again, the depth and nature of her comments are always welcome, and have gone a long way in getting some good conversations started. If you are looking for information on blogging and website development, her blog is a good place to start.
Now can you see why comments are so important to blogs? It is always nice to have people respond to your posts, and anytime you get the chance, you should take the time to return the favor. Remember, blogging would not be the same if your readers were not taking the time to interact with you!Â
