Use Blog Comments For Your Blog’s SEO
Posted by Mert Erkal on Jul 11, 2009 in Search Engine Optimization | 23 commentsResearch the other blogs in your niche, and regularly leave comments with your search keywords. As you gain more links on your targeted search keywords, your blog’s search engine ranking with these keywords will increase. However, do not SPAM other bloggers just for the sake of getting backlinks.
- Keep your comments on the topic.
- Prove that you have read the post.
- Ask the blogger a relevant question.
- Add another point that you believe the blogger might have missed.
- Use your search keyword as your name when linking to your blog.
- Try to link to a similar post from your blog.
I did a guest post on carl ocab's blog in 2008 where I discussed this in detail. blog comments really help in getting long-tail searchers to your blog, which represent more than 80% of the total searches.
Hi Mert, it's been a while. Great advice. Another benefit to commenting on other blogs in your niche is many of them will end up becoming online friends. Some will also visit your blog and comment too.
SEO stands for Search Engine Optimization. It's the technique of escalating the quantity of visitors to a Web site or you can say its a part of search engine marketing seeks to get better the quantity and quality of visitors to a web site.
I find leaving comments a very helpful and important part of seo. You are right though about the comments needing to be real. The writer of the post went to the effort of writing it, so at least read it when commenting on their blog. Thanks for the tips.
Somehow I don't feel comfortable at all to use a keyword to substitute my name although I know that is one very useful SEO tip.
Thanks for this great post…
Good post, but have you thought about Use Blog Comments For Your Blog’s SEO before?
I like your tips about blog commenting but most of the blogs give no follow links is there any use of them please suggest some other better options too.
Commenting on related dofollow blogs is actually great for SEO, but don't just post but contribute to the conversation wisely…
commenting on blogs is Impotant for backlings but the comment must mean something as you said use keywords but only if it's about the post topic.I see people commenting on blogs like they are on twitter or something putting in your blog in the comment box really looks like spam and it won't get you any traffic.
I was just thinking about Use Blog Comments For Your Blog’s SEO and you've really helped out. Thanks!
Although Google does not care much about links inside comments, Google cares about links INSIDE the posts. Get people to notice you, and they will eventually write about you and your site.

I am glad that you blogged about what I was thinking. I also feel that blog comments or article comments do help in your SEO. I have found that even blog comments on .edu or .gov sites do still carry some weight. I like to use blog comments, not for page rank, but to hopefully drive a user or two to my site.
very well said about leaving the comments to the writer and the consideration about the links used by Google!! Thanks for sharing!
