I was reading Darren’s Blog. When it stated “Be the first to comment on new posts. Just make the post meaningful and everybody who comes to read those comments will see your take on the matter.
People appreciate information that you provide and will visit your site.”
I could not nod my head any more. If I did It would be broken. That’s true. If you’re first to comment the chances are that more people will see your comment and the link to your site. So if your post is highly relevant and has good info, there’s a good chance they will visit your site. But don’t go spamming blogs, that will make things worse.
I find it ironic that a post titled “Be the first person to comment” doesn’t have any comments yet (or didn’t until now).
On a related matter, I found this blog through a comment left at problogger.net – so leaving comments seems to work.
I am enjoying reading this blog – keep up the good work.
