Thanks so much for sharing these tips! I’ve been slacking a lot on my blog and these tips have given me some new ideas..

Also, use a website that doesn’t force readers to sign up to comment. I never read blogs that don’t allow comments. AND make sure readers can leave a url.

Those are just a couple tips I just thought of.

I read a comment above that controversy always increases the comments and that is so true. I mean look at Tiger woods and Sandra Bullock.

Whether you intentionally stir up controversy which in their case it wasn’t their intention, you’re always going to get strong opinions. This is food for thought and something for me to keep in mind in the future as I write articles.

Great article and thanks for sharing!

Thank you very much, I did really like the response to my thread, and post replies have been really awesome. It could have never been better. Even hiring someone for this could have never met the experience all posters here have, thanks for saving dollars and adding really good information to this post to make things really easy and workable for us. Thanks again and great work.

I’m kind of lost to the purpose of attracting “lots of comments.” I assume everyone wants a lot of comments because comments equal more search engine content and page impressions. But if you’re just attracting self-serving “Good post!” types, I don’t think the content of the article matters all that much.

And if you allow that kind of commentary, then the people who enjoy reading comments, like me, get pretty turned off when every time they go to your comments section it is filled with that kind of garbage.

On the other hand, if you’re actually trying to attract a committed readership, surely there are better ways to do that than provoking readers through controversy?

To get comments you need presence on the Internet. Unfortunately I have exceptional posts but little presence on the search engines. I have tried every available technique possible with no result. I only wish I could find out what I am doing wrong. I have done SEO and completely rebuilt the HTML code.

I would like to be successfully online just like Darren. Not financial but in popularity because I enjoy helping people.

Because of the sites popularity it helps people share their thoughts on the subjects.

Thank you Darren for the insight

After posting my last post and reading this post, I thought, may be I have to explicitly put down at the end of my post to ask those people whose lifes have been affected by Robert’s books on fighting high cholesterol and high blood pressure to leave a message to acknowledge his great work.

In order to make a bold statement, you need to have some expertise in order not to make a fool out of yourself.

These tips are great. It will work but has to be done the right way. If not the article might come out somewhat controversial don’t you think?

I agree with many in that writing a blog with a claim or controversy will increase comments, but you may not want to clutter your blog with too many arguments and even hatism. It’s always nice to read other persons’ opinions but we should always stay focused on the main topic.

At the end, people will judge your blog by quality of contents not by number of posts.

The other way to get people to comment on your blog is by commenting on other people’s blogs. To attract comments one has to add value when commenting on other blogs. People will also comment when they are reading something they were looking for, for me this has work when people visit my blog and found information they were searching for they automatically leave their comments. After one has comment I always follow up and read their blogs or article online and often leaving my comments that when others reading they are likely to check my blog

Hi Darren,

I agree. Controversy can increase our comments, but it can also bring out those who want to shoot the messenger instead of only disagreeing with the message.

When I first started blogging I remember reading this was a great way to gain attention. I tried writing controversial posts, but quickly found out that wasn’t who I am. I’ve since settled into writing from my heart. Although I don’t get a ton of comments, those who do show up take the time to leave meaningful responses that not only make me think, but help my other readers as well. THAT, to me is more important than a high comment count.

If your write a very good post that is the major way. I wrote a post once that got 6 comments yet i was getting 30 visitors a day. That said it worked out great because spinns featured the post.

I think that people are much more inclined to leave a comment when they are invited to do so.

Thanks Darren for another great article. Another post about engaging the reader I found very valuable was a guest post (here on proBlogger) by Cori Padget from Big Girl Branding. Read the post here

Inviting a response seems like the most easiest idea. Why didn’t I think of that?

Thanks for the tips!

Truth can only be one, and false can be many. Of course, you can’t please everyone, and get everyone to agree with you. As long as conversations are dealt with in a professional way so that truth is brought forth without being hidden. Although some may disagree to a certain truthful topic, others would have been searching about it for ages.I found very tough to make an attractive title than writing a blog when my business is something like Training. Your blog should give good and useful information then only good and relative visitors will comment on it.
