Commenting on a Blog Guide (DC)

It's time for you to check out and comment on other people's blog.  It helps to have a guideline so your comment can stand out and add to the discussion.

Here are some ideas to keep in mind:

The 4 Elements of a Good Blog Comment (Plus: Lots of Examples)

1. The Friendly Greeting
2. The Sincere Compliment
3. The Added Value
4. The Parting Promise

#1 Friendly Greeting:

If you’re hoping to catch the attention of bloggers and strike up a relationship, a healthy dose of proper etiquette can go a long way.

So say hello to them.

Greet them.

Refer to them by name.

#2 Sincere Compliment:

In short, pay them a compliment. Any compliment. Just make sure it’s a sincere compliment.

Tell them how much you enjoyed their post…

Make their day…

#3 The Added Value:

Your goal in every comment should be to add value. If your comment doesn’t add value, it’s wasting everyone’s time.  This could include feedback, an extension of their idea

#1: SHARE PERSONAL INSIGHTS OR ANECDOTES

#2: ASK THOUGHTFUL QUESTIONS

#3: CONTRIBUTE TO THE DISCUSSION

#4 The Parting Promise
I love it when commenters tell me they’ve shared or will share my work. The ideal comment would come from someone who both tells me they’re going to share, and then remembers to tag me when they do.Brittany Bullen
