I’m talking about real, eyeballs-to-computer screen visibility (or screen reader visibility). When you are commenting, many eyes are going to see you. They are going to see your name, your comment, and probably your picture or avatar, too.[...] http://comluv.com/#ts-fab-bio-above-1236 Although not all blogs have it set up (but they should), the genius behind the CommentLuv tool isn’t that you get a fancy-looking link back to your blog, it’s that people can see where the heck that link is going to take them. Rather than a mysterious link anchored with your name or keyword phrase, the actual title of your post is there for the world to see. If you’ve got something special there, no use hiding it behind innuendos and cryptic language. This is your opportunity to create the easy button for p[...] http://comluv.com/#ts-fab-bio-above-1236 Spreading the word is a little different than just increasing visibility. The visibility part is a given, an obvious thing. The reason this law is so crucial is that, depending on what you say, you could successfully start the viral spread of your message just from a single comment. Think carefully about what you write, and also when you leave your comments and where you leave them. Your commenting strategy must be about more than just numbers.[...] http://comluv.com/#ts-fab-bio-above-1236 The other day I left a comment on a someone’s blog – someone new to me. In return, she checked me out. Then she replied back to my comment on her blog, telling everyone to go check out my blog because it was a great place for X, Y, Z, etc. Was I impressed? You betcha. Is it also true that instead of leaving a comment, I could have gone back to my blog and spent an hour writing an awesome post that gave her a tribute and hopefully she would talk about that on her own blog? Of course. But, the comment too[...] http://comluv.com/#ts-fab-bio-above-1236 Truthfully, all comments grow your back links, and this is probably the number one reason people leave comments, and why some of them are bogus and without substance. Bogus comments won’t help you out with the 4 Irrefutable Laws, I should point out. However, regardless of whether they are bogus or not, and regardless of whether the receiving blog is nofollow or not, all comments increase the number of links going to your blog or whatever URL you leave when you comment.[...] http://comluv.com/#ts-fab-bio-above-1236 Your blog is not the only place you should be giving your two cents. Add to the community by chipping in. Think of your blog as your personal soapbox, and everyone else’s blogs as one gigantic community newspaper. You have the opportunity to contribute. Do not over think this! Fortunately for you, this isn’t as challenging as Sudoku . Just put what you are thinking after you read something in the comment box, and hit Submit. Easy peasy.[...] http://comluv.com/the-4-irrefutable-laws-of-blog-commenting/?share=twitter TwitterGoogleFacebook[...] http://comluv.com/ Like Loading...[...] http://comluv.com/news/the-4-irrefutable-laws-of-blog-commenting/ Sire says: June 16, 2010 at 8:52 am All great points. In regards to the last one I would like to point out that there are some blogs that delete comments which don’t come up to scratch so in essence they’ve wasted their time. What would be great, and I think this was a comment left on Andy’s (maker of commentluv) site, was if every time someone left a comment it would automatically tweet the post. Now that would really be cool. Sire recently posted..Why Does Sex In Advertising Sell?
