Create good comments on other blogs is extremely important, especially if you want to influence. There are some tips and techniques to become an influential commentator, see below:

1 - The link you put in comments
Usually the link that is placed in the comments is the homepage of our website, but if you can put a link to an article on your website, talking about the same subject, it may be better. Another technique used by bloggers, is putting the address of your feeds, increasing subscriptions, and the opportunity to examine several other content on your website.

  • 3 secrets of the best blogs

    If we analyse the results of blogs that are successful, there are probably many things in the head. Beyond the numbers, the statistics of money, there is much information and many secrets behind these blogs.
    Let’s look at some important points.

    1 - The web traffic is certainly a priority to generate profits. All success stories are preceded by large volumes of traffic. Without a significant traffic is virtually impossible to generate revenue. Many advertisers consider traffic as a priority to announce, instead of rankings or other methods of analysis. It is important you generate traffic, so you can monetize your blog more effectively. The rest comes in addition.

    2 - The niche where he belongs probably will influence the volume of business that will generate in the future. If you write about grass cutters, you probably can’t have many expectations to compare with the best blogs on the web. If you want to enter a highly competitive niche, make sure you have a particular style and some difference in the content that may attract significant traffic.

    3 - When you optimize and analyze the results, you probably will see an income lower than expected. There are projects that generate millions of pageviews each month, and are not profitable as they should. Analyze and compare your results with other competitors to optimize your income.

    These are basic tips that can’t be left aside.

  • What brings a visitor back to your blog to become a subscriber? Usually the visitors don’t want to know if you took a long time building your site, if you lost hours and hours in the morning, or if the sacrifice was enormous. What should I consider to bring the visitor back and become a reader of my blog?

    More Subscribers

    1 - The domain
    If your domain is too long, probably will be difficult to remember later.The most successful sites on the Internet have short names: Digg, Twitter, Google, Yahoo, Hi5, and so on. If you buy a domain such as “thisismyfirstblogontheweb.com”, the chance to remember the name is 0,001%. Keep this in mind!

    2 - Blog theme
    If you use a theme that is widely used in other blogs, your readers will probably give less credit to your blog. Here, for example, I use a theme adapted by me.

    3 - The title of your blog
    The title of your blog is equally or more important than the content.
    Provide a title to highlight the topic of your blog and what is described in its content. So your readers will certainly remember your blog.

    4 - The content
    The relevance of the content is extremely important. Be concise and accurate when you write. Spend more time in the content of your blog, because this could bring a very positive performance.

    5 - The interactivity
    If I visit your blog, make some comments on relevant issues, request assistance by email or by a contact form, and do not get answers, I probably will not return to your blog. You have to interact with your readers.

    6 - Constant update
    One of the most important factors in blogs is the rate of updates that a particular blog receives daily. Update the blog constantly with content related to the topic proposed in your blog.

    7 - Links to other sites
    When you write a certain article, keep in mind the importance of creating links to references that you write. Don’t be afraid to put links to other blogs or websites. If your article is really good, your readers will continue with you.

    Give more attention to details in your blog… the performance will improve.

    • One of the most important points that we should consider is the look of your blog and its navigation. Don’t build a blog with endless articles, please don’t make your blog an advertising campaign, and try to prevent users from using much the scroll. There are blogs with texts and endless texts, requiring the use of the scroll so endless, avoid it as much as possible.
    • Avoid making a blog with black background and white letters or yellow, or green, and so on. As you know, reading in front of the computer, is more complicated and less comfortable to read a book for example. In this case, you should consider that readers want to read the contents with pleasure. I advise strongly the use of bright colours in the background.
    • You must be careful with the number of ads placed in your blog, be careful with the position of the ads and provides a good reading of the contents.
    • Give special attention to the reader through their comments. If possible, make the moderation after the publication of comments. The contact form is an important item on a blog, don’t forget it. Users must have access to you.

    There are many ways to attract readers and make money. The key is writing good articles!
