While a major impact upon comments is the number of visitors you have on your blog there are definitely strategies for getting more comments (also check out this post on The Secret to Interactive Blogging). The main tip I’d give on this is to be interactive with the readers you have. Start with what you’ve got and build from there rather than complaining about what you don’t yet have.

Its one of those unwritten standards that the logo takes you to the home page. If you’re looking for a home button, just click on the Problogger logo.

I wonder why a very often used feature of slashdot-styke websites (Nuke,..) is not anymore used in todays Blogs: the report/suggest an article Function. This feature where visitors can actually write some content which is quoted in a moderated article. I think this encourages more contributions from readers, and also makes the quoting/editor job much easier. Everybody who uses the function agrees on beeing cited. Unlike the comment function, this leads to new threads/posts, so the owner of the blog can not also get reactions to his blogs, but also can learn from community contribution. I often hesitated to suggest content for an article, mainly because the user interface makes the feedback hard, or I was in fear to not be cited properly. With a "suggest post" or "contribute note" or something like this, I can be sure I have links to myself, my source and be quoted at least partially verbatim.

You always seem to invite participation from readers, while still giving lots of answers and sharing the knowledge you have. That’s what I and others like about problogger.
