Posting Comments On Relevant Blogs


Posting Comments On Relevant Blogs

If you want to make more money blogging, visit all of the high ranking blogs in your niche and start posting comments, intelligent comments, on blog posts.

Think Before Posting Comments

When posting comments, be sure to read the blog post and post a comment that adds to the conversation. Did I mention intelligence when posting comments?
The mistake too many people make when posting comments, is when they jump into another blog, in their niche, and write stupid, short comments that don’t make any sense, and don’t add to the conversation of the blog post. Incredibly dumb and a waste of time.
People do those hit and run posting comments to try and build back links, but they don’t understand the negative impact it has on them. I get those hit and run comments all the time on my blogs and I delete them quickly.
If you work a little at posting comments that really add to the blog post, the owner of that blog will more than likely keep your comment; and your link, directing traffic to YOUR blog, will stick. That means other people will see your great comments and click on your blog link. That means more free traffic to your blog, and you know what more traffic means. More money!
think before posting comments
When posting comments, if you add intelligent comments, other people will also see you as someone to respect, and you will gain more traffic to your blog.
The blog owner will also see you as someone to respect and you will increase your chances of creating a JV (joint venture) partnership. A Joint Venture partnership with a top blogger could be one of the best things to ever happen to your blogging business.
People don’t understand how much they hurt themselves when they post a quick comment that doesn’t make any sense. They waste their time and the comment usually doesn’t stick. If the comment does stick, chances are good that someone else will see it and skip right over anything written.
If you write something stupid when posting comments, people will think you are stupid and they won’t care about your blog or anything you have to offer.

Read The Post Before Posting Comments

Take a few extra minutes to read the blog post before posting comments, and to post an intelligent comment. I know I mentioned intelligence before. The extra few minutes you spend posting comments intelligently could lead to thousands of dollars in revenue.
I also get many visitors on my other blogs who come along and post what they think is an intelligent sounding comment, but you can read right through it and you just know they pasted the same stupid comment on every blog they visit in order to try and gain backlinks. Again, you are only hurting yourself if you are posting comments in this manner just to build back links to your own blog.

Posting Comments For Backlinks

If you spent a load of time posting comments in a quick way just to gain backlinks, almost all of your comments will be deleted. Plus, you will have wasted your time and the bloggers time having to delete your comment.
It’s better to spend a few extra minutes on high ranking blogs and add a solid comment that makes you sound intelligent. You will get 100 percent of those to stick and everyone will be happy.

    I have seen a lot of people comment on most news – it looked like they just read the headline. Others, I don’t know if they understood what they posted. Funny thing is, other people would reply on a “non-sense” comment, which leads to word wars.
    It doesn’t make any sense.

      Most people are looking for back links. They don’t understand the extra value of posting an intelligent comment.

    This is a good way but not if you exploit it. Your blog can be added to spam list if you start posting its links in every major blog. Used wisely it can be very useful though!

      Use the SEOQuake tool bar to find high ranking blogs to post comments on. Then, you don’t have to do as much work. Posting on a few high ranking sites is better than posting on hundreds of no ranking blogs. Saves time.

    Yes Dave.. Im seeing this effect in my blog stats for the past few days… Posting in good blogs with some good commenting is fetching lots of hits… But how can we know the rank of a page or a blog just by visiting it..?? The method i know is just copy paste the link in the google page ranking page and they will tell the page ranking. But is there any other way???

      Download SEOQuake plugin and load it on Firefox. http://www.seoquake.com/ Add the tool bar to your browser and you will see all of the stats on every site you visit, including yours. This is one of the best tools I’ve loaded and it’s free.

    Really, you guys. Some of us girls are not in this “always” for the money. We just like to browse and to comment because we can’t stand idly by when we have something to say. Period.
    (Think) just learned lately one makes (a lot of) money out of these things.

    I was surprised to learn that not many bloggers utilize blog commenting as a way to get traffic back to their site. I have spearheaded many blog commenting campaigns and the results were so amazing that paying for them would have been too costly. Thanks for the post, it shed more light on the importance of blog commenting.

    Sounding like an expert is important so that you attract bloggers to your website. However,one should avoid putting their website on comments unless they are pretty sure that there is a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.

    Hey Dave, very informative post as usual. Apart from SEOquake plugin to know the stats, what would be another way to search for high ranking sites. Will just a google search about high ranking blogs in *** niche suffice? Thanks.

      I understand Alexa has some kind of tool bar or sorts, but I don’t know much about it. I like to find one thing and stick with it to save time. If it works great for what I need, no use in spending time on anything else.

What is Search Engine Optimization (SEO)?

SEO is the practice of improving and promoting a web site in order to increase the number of visitors the site receives from search engines. There are many aspects to SEO, from the words on your page to the way other sites link to you on the web. Sometimes SEO is simply a matter of making sure your site is structured in a way that search engines understand.
Search Engine Optimization isn't just about "engines." It's about making your site better for people too. At SEOmoz we believe these principals go hand in hand.
This guide is designed to describe all areas of SEO - from discovery of the terms and phrases (keywords) that generate traffic, to making a site search engine friendly, to building the links and marketing the unique value of the site/organization's offerings. Don't worry, if you are confused about this stuff, you are not alone.
Search Engine Market Share

Why does my website need SEO?

The majority of web traffic is driven by the major commercial search engines - Google, Bing and Yahoo!. Although social media and other types of traffic can generate visits to your website, search engines are the primary method of navigation for most Internet users. This is true whether your site provides content, services, products, information or just about anything else.
Search engines are unique in that they provided targeted traffic - people looking for what you offer. Search engines are the roadways that makes this happen. If your site cannot be found by search engines or your content cannot be put into their databases, you miss out on incredible opportunities available to websites provided via search.
Search queries, the words that users type into the search box, carry extraordinary value. Experience has shown that search engine traffic can make (or break) an organization's success. Targeted visitors to a website can provide publicity, revenue, and exposure like no other channel of marketing. Investing in SEO, whether through time or finances, can have an exceptional rate of return compared to other types of marketing and promotion.

Why can't the search engines figure out my site without SEO?

Search engines are smart, but they still need help. The major engines are always working towards improving their technology to crawl the web more deeply and return better results to users. However, there is a limit to how search engines can operate. Whereas the right SEO can net you thousands of visitors and attention, the wrong moves can hide or bury your site deep in the search results where visibility is minimal.
In addition to making content available to search engines, SEO also helps boost rankings so that content will be placed where searchers will more readily find it. The Internet is becoming increasingly competitive, and those companies who perform SEO will have a decided advantage in visitors and customers.

Can I do SEO for myself?

The world of SEO is complex, but most people can easily understand the basics. Even a small amount of knowledge can make a big difference. For the most part, SEO education is free and available on the web, including guides like this. Combine this with a little practice and you are well on your way to becoming a guru.
Depending on your time commitment, willingness to learn, and complexity of your website(s), you may decide you need an expert to handle things for you. Firms that practice SEO can vary; some have a highly specialized focus, while others take a more broad and general approach. Optimizing a web site for search engines can require looking at so many unique elements that many practitioners of SEO (SEOs) consider themselves to be in the broad field of optimization and website strategy.
Still, even in this case, it's good to have a firm grasp of the core concepts.

How much of this article do I need to read?

If you are serious about improving search traffic and are unfamiliar with SEO, we recommend reading this guide front-to-back. It's short and easy to understand. There's a printable PDF version for those who'd prefer, and dozens of linked-to resources on other sites and pages that are worthy of your attention. Because you've given us your attention, we've attempted to remain faithful to Mr. William Strunk's famous quote:

"A sentence should contain no unnecessary words, a paragraph no unnecessary sentences, for the same reason that a drawing should have no unnecessary lines and a machine no unnecessary parts."

Every section of this guide is critical to understanding the most effective practices of search engine optimization.

Climbing and Running

Climbing just published a story taking a look at the fitness of alpinist Ueli Steck. As far as climbers go, it would be difficult to imagine someone with greater fitness than Ueli. I mean this is the guy who literally sprinted up the Eiger in 2 hours, 47 minutes in 2008. Only a year earlier, the Swiss Federal Institute of Sports Magglingen judged Steck 'out of shape'. In his quest for setting the fast speed record he could, what followed was a year of the most scientific and rigorous training Steck could devise supported by a slew of sports scientists and training specialists.

Here is just a selection of his training plan.

That is a remarkable amount of time spent stretching. I've never spent more than 5-10 minutes stretching after a workout. Any idea what kind of stretches he's doing? I can't imagine being occupied long while stretching! Based on the Climbing article, he was rather cryptic about the details...

It surpriesed me that he used running and autogenic "mental training" so much. Conversely he climbed very little. His training is much different than I have read about before. I'm about to add more running into my own regimen, and who knows maybe I'll throw in some mental training too. I have a blog about Climbing Training for anyone who's interested.
