    Does blog commenting still working these days?
    If it works, how many back links do you usually make for a week?
    Thanks.

    I'd say mostly no. I don't think it makes a great deal of difference - even Google Alerts seems to ignore mentions in blog comments these days. I still like to comment on relevant blog posts that I find interesting, partially just to get the name around, partially because the links will do no harm!

    Yes, it works. Comment on high pr blog posts and you will see the results. Normally, 60 comments per month (2 per day) is still helpful.

    Yeah of course they still work. If you leave blog comments on random blogs it won't help much, but targeting a niche you are in and leaving insightful comments can lead to more click-throughs and more traffic.

    Blog commenting won't help you if you're trying to rank high for competitive keywords. You will need a high quality backlinks from strong pages.
    However backlinks from blog comments will improve your rankings for long tail keywords. Instead of linking to your homepage, link to internal pages with the right anchor text ;)

    it will help to some extent. however, you need to comment on relevant quality blogs which will be mostly moderated. if you write quality on-topic comment, then not only you will get a backlinks, blog reader or at least the blog owner might just visit your site which will be an added benefit

    If the comment link is a "do follow" and in a relevant page having a good PR then it will definitely help...

    Blog commenting helps in increasing SERPs whether it's nofollow or a dofollow link. Just comment on related blogs.

    I have to agree, comment on related blogs. Post intelligent responses and build reputation. Pick higher PR posts with do-follow links.

    If you find a post with actual PR without many outbound links in the comments section, believe me it will help. Relevancy is always a plus but I don't mind building few of them with that criteria even if the relevancy is not that good.

    Small amount of outbound links on a post with high PR, one or two comments in total, believe me it helps.

    Commenting on blogs with a High PR is a good way to get links quickly to new websites or pages. Also you can get some good context links by commenting on websites that are in your niche.

    We have also used comments to drive traffic by providing links to pages the readers might find useful. It does not always get through the spam filters, but sometimes it can add a few hundred quality visitors to your site.

    I was going to ask you where to find these blogs and then I looked in your signature. You have a custom Google search setup for it. Neat!

    Hello,

    Thematic blog comment is the most effective back link. when you regularly do blog commenting the ranking never decrease. The blog comment link is most important and effective link. I have tried it with many sites. Because these link are genuine links.
