    The approval of blog comments are totally dependent on the user of that blog. So, always comment the legal and related to the post. Before commenting, try to read and understand the complete blog. And the simply a blog commenter can't have any option with this. Just try to make a good and quality comment.

    Use blogspot blog commenting . First log in with google id and then navigate through upper scroll bar and put quick comments without entering email id and website details .

    you can also save 5-10 general comments in notepad and then paste it quickly .

    If you're manually posting to blogs, go after the higher PR / dofollow posts. These are admittedly hard to find. A tool like Scrapebox helps a TON. You'll find plenty of high quality blogs to manually comment on.

    You can also go the "volume" route and use SB to post to a lot of blogs at once. Though I'd avoid pointing these comments at your main site. Instead, point them at a buffer page that links TO your site. (Squidoo lens, hub, etc.) These sites are well established and can handle a sudden influx of backlinks. Doing this to your main site can raise red flags.

    I personally prefer manually commenting on high quality blogs, pointing the links to my site. But automated comments can be effective too. Just don't point them at your main site.

    The golden rule is just to make sure that you contribute something to the conversation. If you're just posting (or should I say PASTING) "general comments", don't be surprised to see loads of them get deleted.

    Maybe you're happy to try posting 100 to get 10 through?

    The problem is that, while you will achieve a few backlinks, (1) you're unlikely to get them from high authority blogs who tend to be more active in vetting these comments out - so the backlinks you DO get will be lower quality, and (2) you should NOT expect to get much traffic from people clicking back to your site - if that's part of your strategy at all. People will click and visit your site IF you've added value.

    So, to sum up, IMHO you're better off to spend a little more time, find authority blogs in your niche, READ them, and say something worthwhile. Most (if not ALL) your posts will be published, you'll have some nice "linkjuice", and even a bit of traffic.

    Always read contents of the blog which takes only few minutes or seconds to understand the blog post topic then comment on topic. Don't try to post comment about your website, blog owners don't like that. You can use some available tools available in market to find high page rank on topic blogs then submit your comments manually as suggested above.

    When someone posts a comment on my blog, they need to comment on what the article on that page was about. Quotes from famous people, or 'good work' or 'I think so, too' type comments are deleted. For the rest, if the URL of the commenter is not compatible with my blog, I delete it. For instance, someone with a porn URL posted a comment on my homeschool blog. Uh uh. Not happening. Try to find a blog relevant to the site you need backlinks for before posting. And at least read the blog and make a coherent, thoughtful comment about the post. Agree, disagree, whatever, but at least show that you read it.

    Your comments should stick to the topic/content you are addressing. Provide a senseful response. You can also take an example to other commenters the way they make comments.

    Find a blog that you want to comment on. If you're doing this for backlinks, make the link natural, comments must be helpful and relevant to the post's topic. This may give you more approval rate.

      I always visit blogs in my own niches or markets.
      I never comment on posts which I don't consider useful
      I always comment on useful or interesting post
      I never leave one liner posts
      I stop commenting on blogs which neverinteract with visitors
      I never comment on blogs which obviously let any spamin just to increase their comment count.

      Very often you start to build a relationship with the Blogsite owner., then your comments can be less formal, and more relaxed. This leads to more backlinks from the blog to your own site.

      On my own site, ALL comments are checked. With the help of Akismet, I've blocked over 7000 spam posts on one site alone.

    Hi Zaheera,

    There are million of blogs out there in the search engines that get updated all the time and all you have to do is to find the related blog and start your commenting engine.

    One thing that I would suggest is to have it hand-built and below are some quick notes you may use:

    1 - It is extremely important that you post relevant, helpful and on-topic comments. Additionally, instead of using just your keywords in the name field you may want to consider mixing it up a bit.

    2 - A good way to determine if the blog owner is actively approving comments is to visit their homepage and look at their most recent posts. Choose one of the posts and create a relevant comment. If your comment is approved within an acceptable amount of time, (for me it's within a week) then you'll know that they're actively moderating their blog. Make a note of the blogs that approve your comments and re-visit them at a later date, posting comments on the higher PR pages. Chances are, the blog owner will remember approving your original comment and should approve your additional comments.

    Just remember, post only on-topic and helpful comments. Before posting each comment stop and think to yourself, "Would I approve this comment on my own website?"

    Hope it helps...

    Raymond

    Ultimately, if you actually read the blog post and make a worthwhile comment, it will get accepted. Blog owners WANT to accept comments, because Google sees this as social proof that people like your site. They'll only delete a comment if it resembles spam. So just make sure that your comments are related to the post, and not made solely for the purpose of helping YOU.

    Thanks Everyone, for your ideas, opinions and information. This all discussion is very helpful to me.

    Really my mistake is that I post my comment [Ad for Backlinking] without reading the post of the blog. So for some time it was lived and after some hours they were deleted by owners of the blog.

    Now I follow your guidlines.

    I only post on the targeted blogs.

    But tell me can I also able to post my employers website links here, after making valuable comment? to get them targeted traffic?

    Kindly do some debate over it, I am happy to see your comments over it.

    According to me blog commenting is really difficult if its done manually...
    Issue's concerning it are

    approval issue
    time issue
    related keyword and topic issue

    although we get delighted wen we get links from high PR sites..its a tiresome method.

    Focus on the topic of the blog that you're commenting on. I agree with mukeshkumar that it is totally dependent on the admin of the blog. I myself has also a blog and I choose the comments to get approved.

    I can share mine. I've done very well with it, but I can't promise that it'll suit anyone else.

    My own five rules, for myself, are very simple ...

    1. Look for relevant blogs - the more relevant, the better.

    2. Take time and trouble - make long, detailed, relevant comments that genuinely add value (comments which I'd be delighted to have there, myself, if I owned the blog).

    3. Don't check the page rank (I want some low-PR ones too, and once I've done the difficult and time-consuming part of finding the blog and thinking about how to comment, I'm not going to let the fact that it's PR-0 put me off. A relevant backlink is a relevant backlink. Google doesn't care much about page ranks any more - as we can all see from the way lower-PR pages outrank higher-PR pages all over the place in the SERP's - and neither do I).

    4. Don't check whether or not it's no-follow (I get lots of benefit from no-follow backlinks, for all the reasons explained in this post).

    5. Look at it as an opportunity/prelude to building a relationship with someone: "today's comment is tomorrow's guest post and the next day's article syndication." If they don't publish my comment, and I really like the site, I might contact them a few days later offering it as a "little article" or something. You never know ... and if you don't ask, you don't find out.

    Embarrassing admission number 374: I don't allow comments from readers on any of my own blogs. They don't play by my rules and they'll spam you to death.

      I'm sorry Alexa. You know I agree with you on quite a bit regarding SEO but here you are WAY WAY off. The reason that in the search results you can see low PR outstripping High PR is because PR is independent of anchor text targeting. SO a PR 7 can fall below a PR3 simply because the PR7 has that PR by links targeting another keyword anchor text (or none at all).

      That ABSOLUTELY does not mean that PR does not matter when it comes to getting incoming links. IF a PR 7 is getting the links with your anchor text causing it to be a PR7 it will smoke you at a lower PR.

      To illustrate there are professors that are rated and respected highly in their field by experts (HIGH PR so to speak) when it comes to a given specialty and it helps them DRAMATICALLY in employment in that field but if you are looking for a slightly different specialty (Different keyword so to speak) they can come in a little lower because of that change in specialty being sought after.

      It does NOT mean that the recommendation of the experts is not cared about anymore. Its that the specialty being looked for is a bit different than the one they were recommended for.

      Google still cares about authority and not just relevance. That is certain from looking at search engine results AND their backlink profile anchor text. If you can find a single search result where the site that is getting more high PR links with anchor text that matches the search is being beat by a lesser PR site targeting the same anchor text then you could say what you claim but thats just not the case. When anchor text and PR comes together PR still matters very Very much.

        Hi guys,

        I think there's this important aspect of blog commenting today that gets missed.
        Let me emphasize at this point that I am talking about "an added value" blog commenting and not spam!

        I decided to screen record this question to better illustrate what I mean - basically it's faster and more precise

          You would get no seo benefit if you logged into any of those. If you click on "post as" it will sometimes give you the option of putting your Name,Email,and URL but I believe DISQUS comments are in javascript so you would still see no benefit.

    Blog commenting is about adding value.It is surprising how many people leave a "nice post" comment and expects it to be approved by the blog owner.Always read the entire post first and leave a useful comment.It takes some time, but at least your comment will stick and not be deleted.

      You may need to comment in a different tone from the one used on your own blog. Then again, I can think of a huge number of blogs which would actually be significantly improved with comments written just like your blog ...

    Don't just go posting how much you loved their site, blog post, design, etc... with your keyword anchor text splattered all over. Be genuine and leave a meaningful comment that shows you actually read the post. Sure, you want anchor text links - but you also need diversity. Look and see what other comments are there and how long they've been there. Are they using anchor text? Some blog owners don't mind as long as your comment is up to par.

        My personal advice would be no - don't comment there.

        Why?

        Because if the page really does PR 5 one of two things will happen. Either
        1) the site owner will come and clear out all those spam comments, including yours. Or
        2) the site owner isn't interested so the site will quickly fill up with spam comments and google will
        a) at best ignore backlinks from it or
        b) at worst demote your site for being connected with a spam page

    If you've been commenting on Wordpress sites and leaving irrelevant comments with backlinks you might have been consigned to "Akismet Hell". Akismet is an anti-spam plug-in that is used on many sites. Once you're email has been blacklisted by Akismet most blog owners won't even see your comments as they will go straight in the spam bin.

    If you are going to adopt a sensible strategy of leaving relevant comments you might want to use a new email address. Strangely enough I find that most real comments come from people using generic email providers, such as gmail, yahoo etc.


    The instant I see an email address such as admin@maleenhancementpills (dot) com I know it's a spam comment left just for the purposes of joining my precious site with the commenters spam site.

    Actually approval of blog comment is depending on the author of the blog.Some blog comments are approved automatically without any comment modernization process.But some blog comments are not approved automatically because if your comment includes some affiliate related links then these comments are not approved by the author of the blog.So,you can try to collect some high page rank blogs which are approved comments automatically and then post comments with good content.I think some SEO friendly blogs are available online for your site promotion.

    A link building campaign is the process of building up the number of inbound links your site has. There are many places to get a link, but a very popular and useful link source is through blog commenting. In order to get the most out of your blog commenting, here are 5 best practice tips.

    1. Use a real name when possible

    Sometimes larger companies don’t want to use an actual person’s name when blog commenting, incase that person leaves the company. But you should strive to comment using a real name whenever possible. This fosters trust with the blog owner and the blog’s community. Hiding behind a business name can be frowned upon, as you are less accountable for your comments.

    2. Three sentence minimum


    Blog commenting is not only useful for link building, but it is also a great way to build your brand and establish your company as an industry expert. Setting a 3 sentence minimum for your comments will help you make sure you are actually leaving a thoughtful comment behind. Blog owners can spot a stock comment (Great post! Very informative. Thanks so much!)a mile away.

    3. Actually read the post


    This may seem like “well, duh” thing to say, but you’d be amazed at how many people just leave a comment without actually reading the post. Usually they just read the first paragraph and rehash what the author said. You want to know that what you are saying is on-point. Posting an unrelated comment discredits yours authority and undermines your brand building. If it’s an exceptionally long post, then at least skim the whole thing, looking for key points.

    4. Respond to other comments


    Writing response comments is a great way to start a conversation with the blog’s other readers. Getting involved with the blog’s community can help you develop new connections and professional relationships. You never know who you might meet on a popular industry blog. Other industry professionals and potential clients tend to turn to the same thought leaders for the latest news and trends.

    5. Comment early


    Most blog posts go live in the morning, so they have all day to be read and indexed by the search engines. You want to be one of the first people to comment on a blog post, because it helps with your brand visibility. Other readers might scroll through the first few comments, but few will read all 102 of them. If you are at the bottom, you got the link but little else of value.

      Did you check out my question - in the video?
      I honestly think this is a very important part of today's link building/ back link strategy.
      Nobody's addressing it so far.

    Don't spam
    Don't use ScrapeBox
    Write high-quality comments that are relevant

    Blog commenting can get you traffic, but it's a lot of work .. much better to post a guest post or use other traffic techniques.

    sorry Alan,... I did not mean that entirely in a bad way as he gives good and comprehensive advice,... And is basically 100% correct.
    However... These are the mere basics,... and nobody is addressing anything else - like my question. And I was just a bit frustrated, that people come along and just paste an answer, instead of address the evolving issues.

      OK Valtan, my apologies.
      However, the information is pretty concise and clear. There are some gems here.

      If you wish to expand on what you wish to know, beyod the advice given here, you're welcome to elaborate.

      Maybe we've missed the point.

      Regards

        No problem Alan.
        Well since no one seems to be watching the video,.. let me put it in words:

        When you comment on blogs to get some back links, often times you don't get the usual "name: email: website: comment:" option... instead you get the login options,... Which are usually:
        Disqus
        Facebook connect
        Twiter connect
        google
        yahoo
        open ID

        What do you think the best login option is?

    The successful way of going for and doing blog commenting is by making a approved list of the blog that allows acceptance of links along with provide a do follow realtion of backlink created.

    Just be real with your commenting. Make your comments informative and applicable to to topic of the blog. Don't worry about do follow and no follow. A good mixture of both is quite natural to the search engines. Good honest hard work will get you a long way.

    I would recommend outsourcing it, but if you're doing it manually, make sure the page you're commenting on has a decent PR, otherwise, don't bother.

      I pretty much agree with this.

      Manual commenting can take some time. And not all of your comments are going to be approved. So you may as well comment on the posts with PR.

      Though, what I like to do, is add relevant comments to a couple of the newer posts first. If the blog owner approves them, I'll then know it's worth my time to try and comment on the higher PR posts. Plus you have the added benefit of building a semi-relationship with the blog owner. So your chances of getting approved are MUCH higher as long as you continue to create quality comments.

    To be honest, blog commenting is very difficult nowadays, but there are a few steps that you can take to help improve chances.

    This might be a no brainer, but write intelligent, relevant comments in excellent English. Something like "nice post i like it" will immediately be marked as spam.

    Also, I don't think you should put keywords in your name either, or put actual links in the blog comment, as this looks too spammy.

    Finally, I see that you are from Pakistan. It could be helpful to get a VPN so it looks like your IP address is from UK/US and then more of your comments will go through.

    However, even with these techniques, it's still hard to get blog comments through nowadays. And, even if they do go through, they are usually no follow. So it might be best to pursue a different strategy altogether.

    Before I bought Scrapebox, I used a free blog commenting tool. It has a built in PR scanner, and you can customize your comments for each blog as needed if you want to.

    You can download it @ Download The Free Blog Commentor

    This produces some really great results. Just don't post to any blogs with a PR-0 or PR-N/A.

    Only post to PR1-PR10

    The best way on commenting on blog is to appreciate the blog post and post positive comment not just only you post without reading his/her blog..blogger are not to spam so i think there is a reason why they delete your comment..just feel free and comment on related post it will help for sure..

    Just make it real and absorb every bits of information on that particular post. You may also read other comments by readers and quote it.
