Things That Will Get Your Blog Comments Deleted By Lynette Chandler At Isnare.com Ezine Articles

It's a strange thing, but blogs are often a very social tool. By visiting the blogs of others and taking some time to post a well thought out comment you will often see people visiting your blog and posting comments in return. It can be very rewarding to comment on blogs because of the community feeling when sharing ideas and building relationships, this will quite often translate into more traffic to your blog. Unfortunately, with all the comment spam going on, many bloggers become wary. If you commonly leave legitimate comments on other people's blog, these pointers will help you stay on the good side of the blogs you visit.

Don't slap your affiliate links in the comments. no matter how relevant to the post it is., Even if your link is relevant it doesn't matter This one single action will get you in the black books of many a blogger when you could build bridges instead.

Stick to the topic. Don't try to slip in some spam. If it's a business blog and your recommendation is not business oriented, recommending it makes you look like you're trying to spam. If you have something to raise that's relevant but not exactly on the same topic, a better way may be for you to blog about it and posting a trackback instead.

Remember the saying “If you don't have anything nice to say don't say anything at all”? It applies to blogs too. You don't have to be in agreement with everything any blog owner posts but you can find ways to express your opinion, or difference of opinion, without being rude or unfriendly. Don't' turn anything into an attack, it just makes you look immature in the readers eyes. Remember the saying, when you point at someone, you've got three fingers pointing back at you.

Use the website link and don't be greedy. Many blogs have a field for you to type in your URL. The blog system will usually use this URL to hyperlink your name to your site. Most people use it but some, don't and choose to post their links in the comments instead. Others load their URL in every place they can find making it look like – you guessed it, spam and into the trash it'll go.

Your comment sounds too much like spam. See points above. Say something intelligent that contributes to the conversation. If you agree or disagree, tell them why. If you've had experience with the topic, share it.

Don't use other people's blog as a complaint center., Someone else's blog is not a place for you to complain endlessly., If you've got a problem Rant if you must, but don't turn it into a 10 page hate mail to the company you purchased the product from. Do it on your blog and send the blogger a trackback if available.

Just be sure to use common sense and all these things will work out. You wouldn't go into someone's house and be rude to them so think of a blog as their home and don't do anything that wouldn't be appropriate when visiting. Posting comments to blogs really is a great way to gain exposure, trust and a good reputation if you approach it with the right attitude.
