    I don't do blog commenting that much. I realized that you don't get much traffic from it.

    I spend about 15 or 20 minutes a day blog commenting and gordon is right it doesn't get much traffic but every little helps I guess.

    It doesn't get much traffic but is it helping you get better rankings?

    It's surprising to hear many people said that blog commenting doesn't help much.
    I thought it is a popular way to gain traffic for free.

    If 9 out of 10 comment does not make it past moderation, what kind of traffic do you expect from it?

    Not much, maybe a minute a day. I would only post comments if it's something relevant and will only link if it helps other bloggers. Not much traffic, but it is highly targeted.

    i dont spend any time at all commenting on blogs, it's completely pointless. any blog worth the bandwidth its written on is nofollowed, and i dont like this questionable SEO "technique" anyway

    Hello Dreteh, I haven't spent time doing blog commenting yet. However, I am planning to spend around an hour two. How about you?

    For those without a linking budget or just getting started with SEO, high quality comments with links are a useful way to build backlinks. I'm not advocating spam but HQ comments are beneficial to the blog owner, visitor and commenter.

    I don't do a lot of blog commenting, as you won't get a lot of traffic trough it. Only on good blogs with a lot of visitors.

    agreed, but how often do you see high quality comments? all i ever see is "great info.." and crap like that. also, you should ALWAYS use your real name, or site name, never a keyword

    I used to do it daily basis, did many comments, not spammy ones, I used to do on daily basis and run a check tool to see if it past moderation. I now realize how time wasting it was =\ same for forum posting, dir submission, article dir and on and on. such a time waste.

    I used to do one to two hours a day. But I stop doing it because the traffic I got is not worth the time. I still do blogs commenting now when I have nothing else to do.

    Not much if ever. I would love the traffic, but I'm really looking for quality traffic. If you can afford it try advertising
