Blog Improvement Project: It's All About the Comment


Kim from Sophisticated Dorkiness has given us our next assignment in the BIP project. It's all about comments! Who doesn't like getting comments and yet not every post generates the amount of attention we'd like. So the idea is to read articles about generating comments, put some of the tips into action, and see if there is any improvement. Great assignment Kim!

  1. Jackie at Farm Lane Books is having a contest for the best, most insightful comment for this assignment! Ahhh! The pressure! As you know, I leave comments on just about everything, so you can count on me!

  3. I look forward to seeing which of the tips work for you.

    I've noticed an improvement in the quality of my comments since launching my contest. I wonder if it will continue without the incentive of a prize, as I can't do this sort of thing every week!

    Adding questions at the end of each post seems encourage commenting. Good luck with your assignment!

  4. Well that inspired me to leave a comment despite having nothing to say.

Thanks for stopping by. I read all comments and may respond here, via e-mail, or on your blog. I visit everyone who comments, but not necessarily right away.

I cannot turn off word verification, but if you are logged into Blogger you can ignore the captcha. I have set posts older than 14 days to be on moderation. I can no longer accept anonymous comments. I'm so sorry if this means you have to register or if you have trouble commenting.
