I have started promoting my new blog, and I am working with the idea of posting *meaningful* comments on popular blogs in my niche. Some samples include FreelanceSwitch, CopyBlogger, and Smashing Magazine. I know that if I offer a website URL it will be linked back with my comment, but do these backlinks help my site THAT much? i am considering continuing to post up more on many blogs, but I just want to make sure it will help me see results in my traffic before spending a lot of time with this method.
i think you will not waste your time especially when you know that each page you comment on with backlink to your website has a chance to be ranked in search engines That well help your site on long term (1-2 months) to be ranked well too
Yes, it will help you build backlinks. And try to keep your comments on blogs that are related to your blogs topic. And also check to see if the blog owner is using tags. That will get your comment in the blog tags pages, category pages and the blog post itsself
Yes it will help you. Make sure you research your keywords and see what words you can rank for and get traffic.
Yeah I am sticking to popular blogs with high PR, I just wanted to make sure the comments do count for something and backlinks to my site are used. Thanks!
Hi, Finding the right site will help you that little bit more yeah but becareful not to seem spammy and keep it on topic otherwise your post will be spam binned!
Frankly, it helps if your comments or link have some good view. For example, Shoemoney and JohnChow blog are not giving dofollow link for the comments (not a dofollow blog). But, they have top commentators widget and gives dofollow link to all their top commentators. So, if you can be on that list (just comment 10+ comments or 2 - 3 comments each day will do the magic), I'm sure you will get hundreds or thousands of visitors monthly from these sites. It has been tested on my blog and it works. Install, google.com/analytics on your blog to monitor your site's traffic. There you will have a better view.
Blog commenting is effective in increasing your traffic in either way be it a nofollow or dofollow blog. Some way some how people will always stumble on your provided link and if your site is interesting enough he or she will definitely come back for more.
yes of course it help to get some visitor and help to built back link also. if you get backlink it will help to get good rank too its my experience
It can help, but even if they are meaningful, there really are easier ways to build one way backlinks now than spending hours a day making up comments on blogs - the backlink from each comment is a VERY small return for the effort!
yes, it will help for backlinks. but just remember that your link is only on that 1 page or a few other pages (after commenting like 4-5). Don't count on it too much. A simple link exchange with sites that have a high page rank in my opinion will do more better But who knows.
