Do you know that you can achieve higher search rankings with blog comments? Blog comments can be an effective link building method if you do it right.
Among all the link building methods, blog comments are perhaps the most frowned upon. This is because many of the so-called SEO experts have blatantly abused this method. They use automated software to spam meaningless blog comments.
Now the reason blogging allows comments is to foster healthy discussions. Therefore, the comments must be smart and relevant to the blog post. Otherwise it is considered spam. Using software to post to a thousand innocent blogs with the “good post” comments is definitely not an acceptable practice. So what is an acceptable practice?
Blog comments are acceptable when the comments are posted by human beings. If you’re interested in the post and really have something to share, it’s okay to post some comments on the blog. In other words, you are indirectly adding value to websites with your feedback. That is an acceptable practice. Once your comments are approved, your links will appear in blog posts.
Many webmasters insist that links are assigned the “NoFollow” attribute, making them useless for SEO. Please note that comments are not intended for SEO, advertising, and link building. They are intended for discussions. Due to the amount of spam on these blogs, search engines have no choice but to implement some kind of algorithm to help detect spam links. But if you are commenting as a human writer, you have nothing to worry about. Search engines always reward human-written content for other human readers. Here are 3 simple steps to get higher approval rates for your blog comments.
Step 1: select only relevant blogs.
Step 2: post smart comments.
Step 3: write in a personal style.
Step 1: select only relevant blogs.
Don’t post to hundreds of blogs that are irrelevant to your own website. Select only relevant blogs. You can easily get a list of blog urls from search engines.
Step 2: post smart comments.
Read the content of the post before writing any comments. Also, take some time to see what others have written in the blog post. Whenever possible, try to join the discussion. Don’t post any kind of comment off topic. That will only annoy people.
Step 3: write in a personal style.
Many blogs are personal websites. So writing in a personal style would be ideal. Your goal here is to make new friends and, if possible, build a relationship with bloggers. On the Internet, you need partners to be successful. So write with the intention of building and developing relationships. You wouldn’t spam a friend’s blog, right?
If you follow the tips above, your links will grow naturally in the blogosphere. You will notice that your rankings gradually improve in search engines.
