    Why not comment, some people do it for advertisement, others express there opinions, and everyone else are asking questions. That is why people comment on blogs

    Why not. This is a great way to express our opinions.
    Also some blogs are using "dofollow" so in this way you get a quick backlink :)

    If I read something interesting or I have something to add I'll make a comment. Also doesn't hurt backlinks/natural traffic

    To express yourself.

    A backlink is an added incentive.

    If the blog is popular, a well opinionated comment will give you some free publicity.

    Once you go through any blog posts or reviews, there is an option called comment so using that you can express your views,ideas,suggestions etc through it for that particular review.

    Thats why we use it.

    DON.

    I used to comment a lot because of the traffic I would get from other blogs but I stopped and now I comment more when I have something to say as in feedback or tossing in my two cents.

    1) Traffic
    2) If it was a highly entertaining / interesting article that I want to give credit to the author for making a worthwhile post
    3) If there's an interesting conversation going on in the comments about an article

    Those are the main 3 reasons I do it (though not really in that order. I've never gotten a lot of traffic from commenting I just know that's what everyone would like to see.)

    To express me views regarding the post and to encourage the author. that's bcoz author starts writing better when he knows someone reads the blog. Till date I never commented to get traffic.
