Blog Commenting - What PR do you look for?

For those of you who do blog commenting (and not just the mass blast type), what PR do you look for before you consider it worth your time? Obviously the higher PR the better going off the assumption that it still has low OBL and will pass more juice to your site...

I'm using scrapebox right now to find lists of blogs to comment on and going through to manually post relevant comments and I was just wondering what PR you normally look for before you bother commenting. I'm finding a few 4s and a couple of 5s and a bunch of 3's and then a ton of 2,1,0, and N/A

I'm sure I'll gradually get better at finding more of the higher ones as I get used to using scrapebox and learn some tricks with it, but either way, I'm wondering what your opinions are as far as the PR you look for before bothering with a comment.

Feel free to comment too if you do blog commenting without scrapebox.

    Sometimes, I actually opted to look at the PR of a site. What I'm acutally looking for is the relevancy of the particular site to my niche.

    Mostly PR5+ manual posting will be good because of stickness and others you can automate.

    I consider commenting on blog serious and I comment to see my comment to show up in their page. I do it manually, a bit time consuming but you can be assured you'll be get accepted.

    Well, actually I am not particular of the PR. As long as it is related to the topic then I will do blog commenting on it.

    I also look for dofollow, relavancy, last post date (if you want to avoid abandoned blogs!)

    Oh, and my secret weapon for viral blog comments.

    Anyone would prefer a dofollow blog with high pr but finding those are not an easy task.Blog commenting is an excellent way to increase site's popularity.

    Its clear that higher pagerank dofollow is better but these pages have more outgoing links too and having link from them doesn't worth too much because of it.

    I have SEO Quake in my browser plugins and that lets me see (it crosses them out) sites that have NoFollow links. I still post on some of these, as I figure traffic is traffic, and even if I get only a few clicks out of them, it still ups my incoming folks. I have not had great luck finding high PR sites in my niche to comment on. I know some people don't worry about relevance, but I like to keep my posting to good, current articles that actually interest me (and that I can link to one of my interior pages) and I leave good, relevant comments that will be of value to their site as well. I personally despise spam comments and they get deleted instantly, though I notice other blogs auto-approve just about any old thing.

  • I think they all help, but PR 3 and up I reckon is golden. I try to build at least 5 PR 3 and up links a day to my sites. It doesn't sound like much but over a month that is some pretty decent link juice.
