By spending a little time commenting on blogs you can generate some great Backlinks, even one or two comments per day can lead to extremely positive results such as reputation building, expert positioning, and the building of inbound links, even if a blog uses nofollow in their comment settings (and if they do not, all the better!).

Blog Commenting

nofollow – The term nofollow means that a Search Engine such as Google will not follow your link which means… No Backlink

Why worry about nofollow? Considering ALL humans ignore No Follow. If you participate in a blog comment discussion and link to your site, chances are readers of that blog will follow the link, building to your site’s traffic. The bigger the blog the better.

But do not simply place a signature link in the comment body itself. Linking to your own site in the comment body is not only spammy in nature, but it can also get your name, site, email and IP flagged by ’social’ blog spam software like SpamKarma. If your information is flagged then you could get your comments automatically deleted from dozens of blogs which use SpamKarma.

Using blatant Anchor Text instead of a handle or name in the Name field of blog comments can have the same result, so don’t do it!

Simply use the URL field to make a Backlink to your web site.

Real Benefits with Blog Commenting

If you simply spend a few minutes a day commenting on 3 different blogs using the URL Field to link back to your web site then you will be averaging 90 Backlinks a Month! and even better over the course of a year that will be over 1000 Backlinks!

If the web sites you are posting your comments to have a “nofollow” policy don’t worry! Because they still count as Backlinks in Yahoo Explorer and a Search Engine like Ask.com completely ignores the “nofollow” part of the link!

You will also gain reputation by participating in comments, lending a helping hand, or just agreeing with someone. Think of blog commenting as an extension of forum participation and treat it the same.

I recommend you ignore Backlinking Comment Services as these will most likely get you blacklisted on Plugins like SpamKarma. Just comment on 3 sites a day everyday and watch your backlinks grow.
