    Hello,

    I am having trouble getting people to comment on my house plan website. I recently put a post up trying to encourage people to leave comments, but I don't know what else i could try.

    Any thoughts?

    Thanks in advance guys.

    get more traffic then the comments will come. Also get a few friends to write some comments and get going from there.

    Become a do-follow blog. I've seen my comments treble.

    Very, VERY few people make comments, or, post on boards, blogs and whatnot, so you need a lot of traffic.

    Like the other poster suggested, get friends to leave a comment. Get the ball rolling in that way.

    You need to put the form right underneath where you asked that question. have them fill it out, right then and there.

    Post a few comments there also for them to see, right then and there.

    Maybe also give some free consultation, or whatever it is you do, for any and all who do give feedback.
