Blog Commenting For Serp Positions

There are lots of great reasons for commenting on other blogs in your niche. Traffic, links, subscribers and tons more, In this post we are going to look at commenting for backlinks, what newb blog commenter’s fail to realize the power of blog commenting and the link juice they get from them.

Before you go to the biggest blog in your niche and start commenting like a mad man, sit back and learn how to comment properly so you don’t risk an ip ban or even worse a URL block!

Commenting needs to be looked at like a business, you need to leave a relative professional comment, if you don’t leave a great comment it will not be approved. However if your first 10 or so comments are top notch and really helpful you will automatically be put into the allowed comments section where you can start commenting with less detail but you still get good backlinks and traffic from your comments.

When you comment be sure to list your username / name as the top keyword your trying to rank for. Point the URL field to your site / sub page, if you have cookies enabled on your browser it will more then likely remember your info from blog to blog. If not make an easy copy and paste text doc so you don’t have to type each field in for every blog you visit.

With each comment you do will send links to your blog, and get this, each time you comment on a powerful blog you get a powerful link back to your site. While comments are never going to be as powerful as a direct in post or blogroll link, they are still great votes for your site. They also help your technorati rank and as a blogger technorati is like the best place to be!

Additionally some sites now have the word press top commentor’s list, if you make a string of great comments you could get a Sitewide link pointing to your site from the powerhouse blog. Remember though, even if you don’t get a Sitewide top commentor’s link the blog comment is still very powerful and helpful for your site.

So what will these blog comments do for you? Well in essence they will build your backlinks count for google, yahoo and msn. These comment links in large quantities will help you gain ranking positions in the serps. Not only that but blog commenting will also get you some decent traffic to your site, those two factors alone are well worth putting an hour a day into blog commenting.

I would like to suggest that you watch these top blogs and see an average for what time and day they make the new posts. If you can be the first commenter on the post all those who follow will tend to click on your link (if it was a good comment) it’s a great way to get readers out of it and you will be doing yourself a favor to learn ways to be the first commenter on a post.

In fact even if a blog is small and has 5 or less comment average, be the first one and as the blog grows and the posts get more popular in the serp positions your comment will still be the first one which can yield long time traffic! I have experimented with this technique and can gladly say I have seen traffic increases on sites upwards of 500%. A staggering number yes, but you can do the same if you start commenting! So what are you waiting for? Comment on this post below and see how much traffic you get from it!
