4 Posts 200 Comments and Lesson Learned

by JohnPaul on July 23, 2010 in Blog Comments
125 Comments

Many people have been talking about blog comments but no one was sharing actually results and numbers. So I wanted to share my results and my tips to getting more comments on your blog.

When I started blogging a year ago, I would write posts and sit back and wait for the comments to role in, since it seemed like that’s what other bloggers did to get their comments..Right?

Well I waited around a lot…lol

Each post I wrote I said this is the one, this post is awesome I HAVE to get some comments, at least one? Do you know what happened? Yep…NO comments!

I was so pissed, I would some time and work into that post I felt I deserved a few comments. After I got over being mad at the internet world, I got an ice coffee mmmm coffeeeee lol , I relaxed and I started asking questions to see if I was the issue, even though I knew better since I know “I’m Awesome” haha

I Was Questioned Everything

I was questioning everything I was doing or not doing…
Do they not like my content?
Did I make a mistake starting a blog?
Did I send it out to the wrong places?
Am I in the right niche?

I went on for a couple hours and it hit me…

I wasn’t doing anything wrong, I was actually doing almost everything right…Almost!

3 Steps To More Comments

Good Content -> More traffic ->Building a relationship with that traffic

I was writing pretty good content, I was building relationships with the readers I had, my only real lack was that I needed more eyes on my posts. Most bloggers that start out do not get big comments, so once you realize that, you can relax and continue to blog stress free.

The more attention I gave to all 3 steps, the more results I started seeing over time.

Getting Comments Is Like Losing Weight

I look at getting comments as if I was trying to lose weight.

Dieting is good, aerobics is good, working out with weights is good BUT to get real results and hit your goal weight you need to do all three combined over time.

Getting comments is the same way.

Writing good content is good, more traffic is good, building relationships is good BUT to get the results you want “more comments” then you need to hit it hard on all three steps over time.

First – Good Content

Second – More Traffic

Third – Build Relationships

So How Much Weight Have I Lost?

Ok you want to know about the comments not weight…lol

Here are 4 posts I wrote back to back…

Comments 27 – Top 50 Places To Advertise Your Website For Under $25

Comments 36 – Breaking Into The Top 20 Internet Marketers Online With No List

Comments 48 – There Is A New Blogging Star Born Everyday, Are You Next?

Comments 100 – My Crazy Simple 7 Step Plan To Promote A New Post

How Do I Bring It Together

Now you can see the benefits of following all 3 Steps in combination, so let’s get into the 3 steps…

1- Writing Good Content

I write when I have something to share and I try not to write about things I see to many bloggers writing about too. I like to write about what I’m going thru and learning at that time and chances are if I’m going thru it so are other bloggers.

Another thing I do is to write about what my blog is about blogging, make money blogging, and making money online.

If readers come to your blog expecting blog tips, then make sure you have plenty of “blog tips” information available. As simple as this is, many many bloggers will start with an idea then post about everything BUT what their blog was initially about.

Also watch your spelling and grammar, this has been an issue for me haha.. (I think faster then I can type) but I am getting better. People will notice so take the time to check spelling and grammar.

2- Getting More Traffic

I have tried so many traffic getting techniques in the past 8 months, some worked and some were a waste of time and money. I now have a few that I use daily to drive more traffic and so far they are working well.

For me I drive a good amount of traffic from Twitter and Facebook, I have found that they both work best to drive targeted traffic. As far as getting the most from Twitter and Facebook, you need to “be there” that means offering tips, info, help, resources etc..

Make yourself available to answer questions.

As I shared in a post My Crazy Simple 7 Step Plan To Promote A New Post I do a lot to promote a new post, writing great content that no one sees is a waste of time.

I use Onlywire to bookmark my posts pretty quickly. I’m a big believer in the benefits of bookmarking all your posts. I also recently started submitting my posts to LinkedIn groups.

I also chase Google for some search luv like a love struck school kid..lol

A simple plan I follow to SEO my blog posts and better my chance at getting ranked on Google is to grab a keyword and use it in your Title, First sentence, Middle and End of your post, then use it in your tags.

Your goal is to rank for as many smaller keywords as you can since ranking for a number of smaller keywords will get you more traffic then ranking for one huge keyword.

3- Building Relationships

You started a blog to offer help or information to readers, right? So then building relationships with your readers should be the easy stuff.

I am real, the person you see or read online is the person you will see in person. Being yourself and letting your personality show is the best way to start building relationships with your readers, make your blog personal.

I make myself available thru out the day and I answer every @ reply and DM on Twitter and every email or update on Facebook.

On my blog, I ask for comments or opinions or feedback. If you don’t ask, then you can’t be upset if you get no comments. Now once the comments come in, I reply to all of them, yes even the ignorant ones…lol Not everyone will see things the same way as you, and that’s fine.

When replying to comments I like to use that as a way to add more information continuing from the post, this is a great place to take your post to a higher level.

Bottom line here is be real, be helpful and be available and the relationships will build themselves.

Take Action

Yes all this sounds great, but if you don’t put it to work today and stick to it for at least 2-3 months then nothing will change on your blog.

But if follow all 3 steps combined you will see results. Once the comments start rolling in, it will start to snow ball into more and more comments.

The 120 comments on this post are a testament to the fact that your system works. I think in the beginning the step that’s the biggest hurdle is gaining a large amount of traffic. One of the most important things is to simply stay dedicated and not give up. Every blogger at some point has gone through a rough patch where they questioned themselves. Thanks for the great post

I quess that nowdays you get a lot more comments to your posts when you follow your guidelines. I have seen too that you need quite a lot of traffic before you will get comments or have to write controversial text to wake up emotions.

Hey!

There is useful advice… I think it’s needed to emphasize that it takes time to grow the audience, to get relationship and to do a successful blog. If you aren’t interested in interact with your audience, will never growth.

Recently, I found a friend that in 3 years get the same audience that I get in a couple of months, by entering a Blog Challenge… Here is the history on detail

I have bad experience with regards to commenting. Several sites owner told me that I am a spammer. huhuhu. It really hurts when they said that. I even told a friend of mine named “Shirley” that I will just ignore their bad feedback to me as I don’t have time arguing with them. I will respect them if that’s how they judge me.

15 John Paul from Be A Blogger @JohnAguiar (2 comments) August 4, 2010 at 7:21 am

This post is about getting comments on your blog.. but yea if numerous bloggers have said your a spammer, then you need to look at how and what your posting to see why they are saying that.

The steps you mentioned here would really help especially to newbie bloggers on how they could manage to get so many comments on every post they made.

Anyway, talking about my experience I’ll just keep my mouth discreet. It’s not really good experience.

What I’ve found with relationships is that when you regularly comment on other blogs you will get comments back because it almost becomes this trade. On top of that, since comments are already coming in, others will want to join in as well which helps drive the count up!

I’m talking about “real” comments from your readers.

Those are the powerful ones that will benefit you and your blog the most.

What’s doubly awesome is when your readers actually answer other comments as well. It becomes a forum where the discussion isn’t influence just by you but by the community – that’s such a great feeling.

Comments isn’t just for you to build on the post, it is for others to support and add to what your said, that way you get other views and everyone benefits.

Most definitely.

Just as it’s still on topic, I’d love to see what people have to say as their ways to gain comments through questions. As in, which questions they ask that seem to gain the greatest response.

Perhaps we could all contribute and find like ‘the top 10 questions to ask your readers’ to gain more comments, something along that line.

BTW, this post is dominating with the comments, over 103 now? woo

Your tips under heading 2 are excellent – the idea of just sticking the keyword in title, first sentence, middle and end I hadn’t thought of. I probably won’t implement the idea, though.

Your tips are for a very particular type of content. I think it’s important for bloggers to realize that not all content is interactive in the same way. If it is the case that one doesn’t have content that’s going to get a lot of comments, that’s fine – just comment elsewhere, and invite people to read your work over time.

As far as comments.. all content will benefit by getting more comments. since comments is continuing the convo from the post, and again all content will benefit from that.

I remember once I planned a post to get 200 comments on my other personal blog, I started a list of 100 blogs that use commentluv plugin, I remember I put 10 or 20 blogs, then I asked my blog visitors to let me know in the comments about their comentluv enabled blogs so I can add it to the list! that was more than a year ago at Mar 24th, 2009 and it took 2 or 3 months to complete the “List of 100 blogs using CommentLuv“, and you will not believe that John, but this post get tons of comments, and it still getting more and more till today, so funny! I see someone commented at July 5, 2010 asking me to add his blog to the list lol even the 100 list is completed lol! probably because it’s on the page one of Google search!

But I stopped approve them after I reached 230 comments because the list is completed!

So, basically you can get 200+ comment on a post if you plan it to get the 200+comments!

Just sharing!

30 John Paul Aguiar @JohnAguiar (38 comments) July 27, 2010 at 2:04 pm

Im not a fan of comment luv.. it attracts the wrong comments.

I think without comment luv the comments you do get are more about adding to the conversation and not so much about promoting themselves.

Hi JohnPaul,
Great article, I have a few small complement;
Links to older posts.
Good and interesting titles.
Dont write 10, 20 or 50 ways, tips – articles. Write instead 9, 13, 22 or 46 way, tips –articles, its more interesting titles then.
And like I have said before;
Decide before a read thread and not float out into different topics.
Not for large articles, (heavy reading) instead split them up over a couple of days.

I am new to blogging. I have only been doing it for a few months, and I slowing learning may way around. When I started, I didn’t really expect to keep it up, but I have found that I love writing. Even more, I love when I am able to connect to someone else thru sent and received comments. Thanks for the tips!

Thanks for sharing this. You’ve really covered all the important details here. I agree with you, when you write good and quality content, there’s no way that people won’t like it. Combine it with your skill to drive traffic, then you will have a steady flow of visitors in your blog which will leave comments as well.

Kind regards,

Gary

65 JohnPaul @JohnAguiar (37 comments) July 24, 2010 at 12:31 pm: Gary.. TY for the comment. Yea quality content is the foundation to getting more comments and interaction in your blog, Then driving traffic to that great content is vital.

Nice article John. I agree with you here. Good content is simply the basis for getting comments. If you don’t have great content then you are not going to get many comments. Then of course you need to build up a relationship with the people that coming to your blog. That way you will turn that visitor into a reader. And at the end you do need to drive traffic to your blog just to get more comments and thus readers

How is everything going on your blog?

Build it and they’ll come – not always! Solid tips – by the way RT, shared at FB and stumbled!

These 3 combo of points must be done together – in my opinion – all are #1.
I see blogs with:

* Excellent content but few comments. Why? Poor traffic & social networking.
* Good content and lot of comments. Reasons: Decent traffic but excellent in social networking.
* Medium or good quality content but avalanche of comments. “Normal” traffic but a Master in social networking.

So if the target is to get comments, you need to do points – 1, 2, 3 – at the same time.

Cheers and have a great weekend!

“(I think faster then I can type)”

I think you mean “than”. LOL. Sorry, just happened to notice. It happens to me as well though, I make a few grammar and spelling mistakes myself, I guess it’s because I don’t write a draft into some word processing document and then anally spell check it. I write straight from my head, the exact emotion I’m feeling at the time, and sometimes I think faster than I type as well lol.

Anyway, relating your post… comments are great. Comments are fine and dandy, but you know what, I’ve learned over time that sometimes NO comments isn’t such a bad thing. It’s a heck of a lot better than spam in my opinion, or someone who just commented to get a backlink.

JMO.

Yes, no comments is fine, but hard to build a blog and a business when you can’t even get a few comments.. don’t you think?

But we all have different wants from our blogs, if yours is to not build a community around it then no comments is just fine and dandy.

But if you are trying to build a community around your blog, then comments is where is begins.

74 TriNi (4 comments) July 24, 2010 at 12:46 pm

Yes I agree, comments are definitely nice. But most people blog for money.. well at least around the niche that I’m in. So when you are blogging for money, as long as you’re making money from your blog.. comments don’t matter as much.

As long as you have a clear call to action, and you’re getting targeted traffic on a daily basis that is doing what you want them to do when they come to your blog, which is “click ads”, “sign up to stuff”, or “purchase”… then you’re making money and it doesn’t matter much if they comment or not.

Again, just my opinion off course.

75 JohnPaul @JohnAguiar (37 comments) July 24, 2010 at 1:00 pm

Yes if you are making money with your blog thru a million ads, then comments mean nothing.

But if you are making money from your blog selling your product or service, then comments are important, since if you can’t get a comment for free, you will not make a sale.
JohnPaul´s last blog ..Shoemoney System Weapons Of Marketing Blueprint

76 TriNi (4 comments) July 25, 2010 at 2:31 pm

Nope, I beg to differ. I make quite a decent amount online, and though I do not sell products because my blog is about ways to make money online free so I refuse to have people pay for anything from my blog, but I make a decent amount from affiliate marketing through CPA campaigns, and I don’t get a ton of comments… only a few legit ones every now and again. Mostly spam comments that I reject.

77 JohnPaul @JohnAguiar (37 comments) July 25, 2010 at 4:58 pm: Did you read what I wrote?

Because I said comments are not improtant when you are selling ads or aff products.. comments are important if you are selling your own product or service.
JohnPaul´s last blog ..Shoemoney System Weapons Of Marketing Blueprint
78 TriNi (4 comments) July 26, 2010 at 10:37 am: Yup, did read what you wrote… but “thru a million ads” didn’t exactly say “ads or aff products” to me.. but ok, if that’s what you meant then I agree with you. Yes you need to interact with your customers in order to sell YOUR OWN products.

Either way, I hope you didn’t take anything I said out of context, I really was just sharing my opinion. And I was just stating that no comments is alot better than SPAM comments.. which I tend to get a lot of because of my rank in search engines.

However, I do LOVE comments on my blog and I reply to each and every one of them.

So your post is very legit, I was just sharing the downside which was spam comments.

Sorry for posting above your comment, I couldn’t find any reply link under yours.

I also agree that no comments is better then spam comments, that is why I’m not a big fan of comment luv.. it attracts huge amounts of spam comments, comments just for links, and promo comments, all the comments you don’t want.

I rather have much less then to have 50 per post coming from comment luv.

Excellent article and very true that in order to solicit comments you have to actively engage and build a community and relationship. Until your site can become massive enough to garner enough traffic and attention that you don’t have to actively go out and comment in order to receive a comment, you have to give some to get some.

I agree. Doing all three of them will have the most effect. The example you give of dieting, aerobics and weight lifting is really true. Many people do only one or two, but the power is in doing all three of them, Good Content, More Traffic and last but not least Build Relationships!

Great points here John Paul. Those are some heady comment numbers too

Content is the cornerstone. Without something of value to read, readers won’t show up. Beyond that engagement is vital. Ask questions, give answers and respond to every commenter who shows up. Visit their blogs and leave comments. This is the foundation of a valuable relationship.

Thanks for sharing your pointers

Oh thank you for this post! I am going to come back and read the rest of your interlinked posts to get more information. The best part was the “permission” you give to write about what you are learning and going through.

I recently bought an excellent software program called, Fiction Master by Sol Stein. It seems that I’m the only one searching for this program according to the numbers in Market Samurai. I didn’t think that any of my readers would be interested in learning about the program but I really want to write about it.

I think I will now that I’ve read your post. It has improved my writing so much already in fiction and it definitely classifies as something that many other bloggers are not talking about, probably because it is old school but still newsworthy.

Thanks for an excellent post and I’ll come back to read more. Already bookmarked your site

I noticed just in the last few weeks my comments on my site are going. Writing for Famous Bloggers, guest posting, BloggerLuv and commenting several different sites. I am getting more comments. Now that I spend time talking with people on BloggerLuv I have built up a little more traffic and I get more comments. I have several new posts with a good amount of comments. I still haven’t had much success with talking with people on Twitter, but I am trying to figure out ways to fix that…

112 Tia from Blogging Guide @bizchickblogs (12 comments) July 23, 2010 at 11:21 am

Good stuff, JP. I have seen this work over time as well on my blog. It does pretty well with comments. I feel like chatty bloggers attract chatty readers. The content itself has to be good, but there is more to good than just good writing. It also has to be conversational. It helps to be “present” instead of being like an encyclopedia, IF you want comments. Of course, some people value traffic over comments and that is fine, too. But what I have noticed, even on the bigger blogs, is that the tone of the post needs to invite comments and sometimes that’s not easy!

Cheers,
Tia

Being present is big, if people know you will see and reply to there comments then they will comment more.. I myself have stopped commenting on some blogs, because the blogger rarely replies to comments, which to me is lazy and a big mistake.

People like to know that their input matters and is valued by the blogger, if they feel thats not the case, they will not comment again.

Thing with Klout.. if you check your rank right after posting a bunch of tweets and RTs and @replies, your rank will be higher.

If you check your rank after some quiet time on Twitter, your rank will be lower.

Don’t focus to much on stats like that man,, just focus on buildign your community on twitter.

I was remembering my blogging journey while reading your post, I faced the “NO Comments”, it was hard times but I find your post make a lot of sense to me because I was following exactly what you have said in your 3 steps!

The most one I like is writing something different than others, or at least in a different style, I went so far with that .. I even some times had to publish my posts with a Title that has no relationship with “keywords” to be able to get attention and drive readers! some how it works, if you know what I mean! lol

There are many ways to get comments, but to get “true” comments that add to the conversation and build on it are the comments I like.

These are the ways I use to get more comments and that you use as well, and seems to be working great for you too
