Do you leave comments on your favorite bloggers blogs? Well, if you don’t, you should and I’ll tell you why…

  • More followers for you…

I don’t know about you, but when I am compelled to leave a comment for a blogger, lots of times I go back and look at what other people are saying. At the same time I’m perusing comments, I’m also looking at the person who’s commenting and if they leave a clever comment, I’ll go check out their blog or website. I have found and followed many blogs by doing this. It is a valuable tool as a blogger or business owner to leave a comment. You never know who might be reading!

  • It makes a blogger feel good…

Leaving a comment is like a gift to a blogger! Whether the comment is good or bad, critical or praising, just the fact that you are taking the time to comment is HUGE! It shows a blogger that their content is being read and touching you in some way. BTW thank you readers!

  • The favor might be returned…

I check my comments a few times during the day and when I read them, I also check out the person behind the comment. More than once, after checking out their blog, I enter their contest, leave a comment or sign up for their blog. See, by leaving a comment, you gained a comment!

So, take a moment to give the gift of leaving a comment. Your bloggers will love you for it!

Courtney: I’m here and reading! Clicked thru from your post on Twitter, which I am trying to check daily. I love the artwork you chose today, btw. From now on, I will be sure to comment and not just read, silently and anonymously in my robe and slippers at midnight!
