I have started a new blog and need to get the comments section going. Is it ethical to post a few comments on my own I have received from other people who do not have computers or will this appear to weird and cost me creativity?
If you are starting a new blog you need to do the Article writing with new and unique content everyday. Submit your blog to blog directory, forums about blog such as bloggerforum and to social bookmarking site. Promote your blog site through forums and get a link exchange partner
You can do it in right way - you can put in in the context, quotes etc... all it depends how do you like to do.
You should promote your blog through forums related to your site, join social bookmarking. And if you want to have a comment related to your blog topics you should manage your comment.
As long as it is not stealing other's content/comments and commenter doesn't mind it, it is perfectly alright to post comments on your own.
Too many comments by your own id will sound funny to the visitors. Maybe you can consider publishing your comment as anonymous, and then write down the name of your friends who make the comments. And join blog communities. They're really great for attracting visitors. Plus, if you comment genuinely on other people's blogs, they'll do the same to you too.
Man... he can everything on his blog, even make 100 users and comment . Anyway - this is not easy to start blog with common content. Be original.
Agree with grg. You can do anything, it's your blog. But instead of posting comments yourself on someone else's behalf, I think it's better to promote the blog elsewhere. But first ensure that the content in the blog is something original.
