What is the best way to get people to comment on your blog?

Good post. I have a similar problem.

Some of my posts are extremely popular, I did a good job of promoting them on DZone, DotNetKicks, Reddit and similar resources. But for instance, people prefer to comment to my stories on Reddit instead of commenting in my blog.

Any ideas?

Hi JJMcClure
first of all create best and ever needed unique contents that will astonish your visitor and he/she will comment you

Post interesting content and ask for your visitors interesting opinions.

The right way to get comment on your blog is to create quality contents.Its contents should be unique and informative.Moreover if you want their feedback you can finish off your post by saying .DO you agree with this give your feedback or any suggestions.

One thing try to put informative blog in your blog site and Other thing is try to do SEO for that blog. You will get popularity.

absolutly aggre with your’e opinion …
with give a good comment , i think it can give more link back for your’e website …and it’s very effective to increase traffic …

Thanks

First try to comment on other blogs using your url. Then automatically you will get comments in your blog

Make sure that your article is interesting enough to make people comment on it. Or you can also end your article with a question.

I found it to be effective!

I will suggest write about the controversial topic, or against the tide…if everyone is writing great review of say Avatar…go ahead and abuse Avatar…people will come to your blog to abuse…but anyway you will get comments…

Look first of all u need to comment on other’s blog,it may help u .Probably they may revert back with a reply to ur blog,whether negative or positive.
The second thing is if ur blog appears in top results of search people are certainly going to comment on it.

If you make people to comment on your blog, first of all you should impress them. Write more interactive blogs to get more comments.

Write a blog which deal on the topics that every reader can contribute their opinion. Something like a blog that you can give questionable thoughts of agreeing and disagreement of generalizing it. It this matter, readers can comment in your blog which turns to debate.

I believe that you be your own style when writing your article, give first to the people with some informative content, than put sometimes with some issue or what ever that is controversial and the best option is make your blog dofollow and put some notice/rule to the commentor to use real name or you will delete it, this will get many comment on your blog.

Post interesting articles who are from recent news, gadgets, technology, and always stay up to date. Some bloggers like to post controversial topics.

Is your blog a dofollow? you may want to make it dofollow, and submit to followlist.

hi, to make people do comment on your blog you should write your blog interesting or set a discussion to talk something useful.

comment on other people’s blog. they might get interested in your blog. and most bloggers comment back as a favour. try this trick. works well for me

That’s what my #3 tip above :slight_smile: well this thing really works well for me too. The objective is to make strong and long lasting relations with other bloggers :slight_smile: there are some commentators on my blog who just comment but don’t continue discussion which eventually loose the grip of blogging relation.

Make friends to some blog owners, post a comment on their blog site and wait to them reply to your comment.
