Don’t you just love blog commenting? I do.

And it’s not just because I want to receive backlinks from Do Follow blogs.

It’s always great to learn from other bloggers, get insights from other blog commenters, and give a comment yourself!

Notice how I emphasized “Do Follow”. This is because if you’re commenting to get backlinks to your own blog, if you’re doing it on No Follow blogs, you are NOT receiving any backlinks.

Do follow vs. No follow blogs

Do Follow and No Follow attributes comes into play whenever you leave a comment on a blog that has your link.

Do Follow blogs tell the search engines to follow the link left along with the comment. No Follow blogs, on the other hand, tell the search engines NOT to follow the link that is left with that comment. In other words, with the former, you can get link juice in the form of backlinks; in no follow blogs, you don’t.

A Wordpress platform by default is a No Follow blog. However, in order to increase visitor involvement, many bloggers (like me) have turned their blogs into Do Follow blogs. If you’re new to blogging or if your blog is still set to the default No Follow, you may want to consider turning yours into an interesting interactive community.

Here’s what you should do: determine what plugins you will need, and let your visitors know you have joined the DoFollow movement.

How to “Do Follow” your blog
Simply do a search for Do Follow plugin, pick one, install it and activate it! This will remove the No Follow attribute in your comment section.

By making your blog “Do Follow” your spam comments may increase. To prevent this you can install plugins to prevent spam comments as well, personally I use “Akismet” and “SI CAPTCHA Anti-Spam”. They eliminate 90% of all spam comments, which is a relief!

Don’t forget to let people know that you are a Do Follow Blog. This way, visitors can, and will more often leave a comment on your blog!

One last thing

Make sure to always leave quality comments on other blogs. To make blog commenting really work for you, search for Do Follow blogs that are in the same niche as yours and have good traffic flow. This will allow you not only to leave a nice comment but generate traffic and gain a backlink as well.
