I have a site almost two years. I was a journalist for many years. I write about politics, rock music and movies. I have a good layout, original articles, I write about things and events daily. I write at least once. However, all this time I do not think I received more than 50 comments. Besides a good PR and good indexing in Google and Yahoo feel that the site does not work because it lacks comments. Why?

I always ask a question at the end of my posts just ’cause I’m curious of my readers’ thoughts and opinions. I think it helps when questions show the sincerity of your interest.

We should thank you for giving such a wonderful blog. Your site happens to be not only informative but also very imaginative too. We find a limited number of experts who can think to write technical articles that creatively. All of us are on the lookout for information on something like this. I Myself have gone through several blogs to build up on knowledge about this.We look forward to the next posts !!

Great post full of useful tips! My site is fairly new and I am also having a hard time getting my readers to leave comments. Analytics shows they are coming to the site but I have a feeling “nobody wants to be first”.

My site with very few post comments is WeirdLawsuits.com

Anybody reading this comment is more than welcomed to leave a comment on WeirdLawsuits.com as well. You can also leave your “first impression” or other opinions on the Feedback page.

Thanks again for this great post!

This is really great. I found a link to this page on Codrut Tucanu’s blog. I have a new blog, 2 months, and there are some comments but the people are not engaging like I would hope. This list is great and I will certainly implement the ideas tonight. Thanks for this and if anyone wants to comment on my posts for me you can go to my blog at http://www.billwynne.com

Thanks
Bill

I find that although I’m not selling anything as many of the above commenters seem to be doing, comments on my blog motivate me (it’s a weight loss blog). I feel disappointed when I don’t get any. So I started today, using some of your tips such as asking a question. Let’s see how it works! I already got one comment, and I answered her. I also asked lurkers to comment, but so far none have. Thanks for the tips!

Not every post needs to get a ton of comments but if your blog hardly ever gets a single comment then it will look unpopular and start a downward spiral. Hopefully using some of these tips you will turn it the other way and create a positive community snowball affect.

I think the simple secret to getting more comments it just to ask for them. Finish a good quality post with a question, a request for feedback, and see what happens…!

I find having pictures and not just flat out text helps to attract people to comment. Or is that just me?

Hi Chris,

my comment maybe a little controversial, but I will make it anyway as that is another tip to add, controversy gets people talking. Some feel compelled to show us they are the alpha male and be right all the time. You may even get peoples blood boiling because you hit a raw nerve. They in turn get their friends to comment to prove a point. Hence more comments.

have a great day all.

I think what makes people to comment is their ego. They know something and want to brag about it. I totally agree with you on this. What do think if we just dont give too much info, and hoping that our viewer will gave their comment.
