Why Comments Matter


Its nice to get comments when you make a post, gives you a sense that at least someone is reading what you write and after all isn’t that why you are writing.

Of course you know that you should respond to your comments, that’s just polite.  But do you ever take it one step further?

What about using the comments section of your blog as a resource for your blog?  Quite often the people who leave you a comment are bloggers too. So they may well have a good writing style - Guest Post Resource. They may have made a comment that inspired you to re-think an article you had written - Blog Post Inspiration. They maybe writing on a topic that compliments yours - Linkback Opportunity. 

Blog comments are much more than just a pat on the back for a nice post.  Go and take a look at all the comments you have acquired over the last few months and see what resources you can find.
