Build Backlinks by commenting on other Blogs
Giamatti Giamatti
Blogging is becoming more and more popular. At first, people used blogs for online journaling, now they have emerged into money-making machines just like regular websites.
Most blogs allow you to leave comments, and with your comment, you are usually allowed to leave your website address.
The point is not to comment on any and every blog. It's more effective to find blogs that relate to the theme of your site because their audience is similar to yours.
And when you comment, make it useful. Don't just spam the blog and say "Hey, visit my site." Not only will that prevent your comment from getting approved, but there's no value in that comment.
Your goal is to build credibility to make people want to visit your site. So make your comment relevant to the blog post and add some useful information that will catch the eye of other commentors and even the blog owner.
Let's say you have a site about iPods and you find an iPod blog that allows comments. The author has just written about the iPod Touch product, but left out some key information you felt would have added to the piece.
You could comment on how great the article was and briefly mention some key points you felt the author left out.
Other commentors will see your comment, respect the fact you offered some useful information they might not have known, and it increases the chances that they'll visit your site. Many webmasters generate a ton of traffic from blog commenting, but it's important you do it right or it's a waste of time.
