Yes I comment to say Hi... !

I keep one hour each day for just visiting various blogs of interest and make it a point to write my comment. It helps in many ways;

  1. Great way to start a communication.
  2. Build a network of friends and bloggers who reciprocate the same.
  3. More traffic to your site.
  4. Most important is to increase the knowledge base reading the blogs.

When internet is all about 'sharing is caring ' then comment is the most powerful tool to prove the same.

Like to hear your views and comments of course

PS: I comment in sync with the posts I read, and my comments are more than just a  "Hi"

To make the topic interesting I left it with a "Hi"    Space constraint!!

Yeah I agree but i gets damn irritating when a person leaves a "nice post, happy blogging comment" I think one should comment if he has say something worthwhile or add to the post.

Yogesh Patwari

Err, don't exactly agree. If I like something someone has written, and really don't have any intellectual gibberish to dole out, why not give a simple 'Nice Post' comment? :)

Sanjeeta KK
from chennai |

Very true Yogesh! Many times I am at loss of words reading some good articles, and 'nice post' are the last two words I could find in my dictionary to write.

Sanjeeta KK
from chennai |

Ah! Finally someone is there with some real comments.

Thanks and yeah feel the same.

But as a first timer to any site, a simple 'Hi and nice post' might start the ball rolling. It then depends on the receiver whether he responds or ignores the comment. If positive you have a friend, if negative... well..  keep going, net is very vast.Smile

Hi Sanjeeta,

I am browsing your blog and drooling ;-)

I am kinda introvert blogger, but well said a Hello or Hi can make a lot of diffference. So keeping in mind, I will definitly post a comment now on.

Venky reminds me one blogger in Hindi community of bloggers. He just post "nice" to every post [I am guessing he comments without even reading the post] submitted. So there was one post on Women Awakening blog regarding complaints and issues with man's ego, and he commented 'nice' :)

Sanjeeta KK
from chennai |

And the crown goes to Richa ! For truely going through the essence of the forum topic and replying!

Thanks Richa. There are goods and bads in everything that we come across. And comments are not left alone. So we get friends and spammers while commenting on other blogs.

It depends on us to select and comment on the blogs we like and after we read the content. That comment will be genuine and we will surely get a fellow friend blogger.

Best wishes.

Venky
from Chennai |

@Rich I dont comment that way. I always have something to say about anything :-)

Most of the people who comment "nice post, keep blogging" kinda comments to just get traffic back to their. This will the essence of blogging which is sharing

Sanjeeta KK
from chennai |

When you get a good comment and a long list of followers.

"All is well"

Richa
from London |

Thanks Sanjeeta for the crown :) And I will keep in mind to COMMENT on posts I like.

Mohan

now that you have got the crown, can i ask for a sword?

Sanjeeta KK

Her comments are more sharper than any sword! Bach ke rehana..

Sanjeeta KK

Hi Varsha!

Indeed platforms like indibloggers and commenting on fellow bloggers blog, are what makes the world a sweet place to live.

There are people out there who really care to share.

Thanks for all the remarks and I do share the same with you.

Keep connected and commenting, take care.

Hi Sanjeeta,

very true that a simple Hi can roll the ball....

but it feels good when our readers comment says something more about the post.

It gives the feel that they read it and enjoyed it. Smile and I liked what you said, sharing is caring .

Sanjeeta KK
from chennai |

Sure you will get good comments. Keep visiting sites of your interest, read and comment more often. Most of them will reciprocate if the content is worth commenting.

Best wishes.

Sanjeeta KK

Mohan

I come back here to say Hi Again ;)

Sanjeeta KK

You prove the saying "Sharing is caring" !

Mohan

You raised some good points here which I agree too

Comments surely help to create networking among bloggers, but I am against commenting just a "Hi" or "nice blog" etc because such comments are made "mostly" by persons who just want traffic irrespective of the quality of the content which they post.

The blogger will surely get more connected with a person who comments thoughtfully rather than the one who just says hi.

Comments do create an impression about the person who is commenting.

So a "Hi" comment does not represent a true reader even if he has read the blog.

On a lighter note you must have already got a taste of your own mode of commenting, by the well thought out and interesting "HI" comments above. Wink

How did you feel when you saw the comment from Richa after all the "Hi" replies?

Sanjeeta KK
from chennai |

Thanks for the toughful comments.

And I thought all bloggers are out here to promote themselves. My Hard disks had lots of bytes to store the articles and read it to myself. Why internet?

What when Indivines, votings and asking for reviews are doing good rounds here. These are good marketing tools to reach out to people. And comments are one among them.

I am just using a marketing tool effectively to get readers and friends at the same time.

A "Hi" which is used just to build traffic will have a natural death then and there, unless it is writtten in sync with the content of the post.

Yes Richa is a good netizen.

And I am proud of my mode of commentingSmile I am getting to know people  I never would have thought of reaching.

PS: No benefits from this thread Frown I have only 4 followers from Indibloggers to my site (Addy, Mohan, Varsha, Shweta) who are with me much before I started this thread.

Richa
from London |

I am your follower too Sanjeeta its just I am under the name of singrv :( [coz google follwer didnot take my real name and prefered username of wordpress]. And it does not mean that I have become follower just like that, right now taking break from kitchen after long time. I will see you soon on your blog.

Well what to say, we cant force people to comment.  I get 19 votes on my post without any comment. Its true commenst are more important than 'votes', everyone knows it but thats the irony.

But I have decided and make a rule for myself, "to comment on the post if I like them" and vote if it deserve it.

Im still trying to figure out the whole indivine and liking posts thing..But what Richa said makes complete sense to me..
