There are many advantages when you comment on other blogs. How many times have you worried over the fact that your blog lacks publicity? Have you ever wished that you could promote your blog easily and cheaply? Then the solution to your problem is blog comments. Leaving your comments on other blogs is a great way to tell people about yourself and providing your blog with exposure. It is so important at a time when each day millions of blogs are created.
To give you a more detailed idea, I have analyzed the following main advantages when you comment on other blogs:
Backlinks
This is a very major advantage that you get when you comment on other blogs. Make sure that majority of blogs on which you comment are DoFollow blogs. These DoFollow blogs will allow your link to be followed by the Google spider. In turn, you will be able to create a lot of backlinks if you continue to comment on many DoFollow blogs. This is a much easier way to create backlinks for yourself rather than posting 400-500 words articles.
Brand Exposure
When you comment on other blogs you are creating an image or a profile in front of the readers of the other blog. Most people would not recognize you, but once you are regular at commenting then you will begin to create an image in the minds of other bloggers who visit the blog you comment. It is advisable to make a sensible and frank comment to the post written by the author. You need not always make your comment sensational and controversial – which is unfortunately done by many bloggers for cheap publicity. It is best if you avoid all this as it ruins the very spirit of blogging.
Residual Traffic
Commenting on other blogs also offers you another great bonus for you. Your blog comments can result in residual traffic to your blog. It happens when other readers who go through the comments find you interesting, and then they might click on the link you provided along with the comment. Also for many, going through the commentators is a great way to find new and interesting blogs. I am sure you also visit many random commentators link when you read a post. So make it a point to leave a comment on any article you read – regardless of whether it is a DoFollow or NoFollow.
More Comments On Your Blog
When you leave a genuine comment on a blog, there is every chance that owner of that blog may comment back to your blog to appreciate your commenting efforts. I himself noticed I get lots of comments from those bloggers on my blog where I do commenting. So it’s a win-win situation for you as commenting on other blogs will help you get some genuine comments on your blog as well.

Why do we need to use anchor text or the keyword in directory submission & blog commenting?
We use keywords as anchor text to promote that keyword so that we get higher rankings for that keyword in SERP.
Whenever I comment on another blog, I try to continue the discussion and give something that the blog writer can say “wow, that person really put effort into that comment”.
On my other main blog, some comments have given me dozens of hits because of the insightful nature of the comment. People think “dang, if this person is really keeping up with the discussion here, I wonder what they’re talking about on their blog!”.
Brand exposure is really great because if you can comment frequently, you begin to get a reputation as “that guy (or girl)” that’s always active within the blog community.
Sorry, but you can’t close a sale with an advert. Advertising does have a huge influence on behaviour, but it’s not like you’re pressing the buttons on a radio-controlled car here.
I know the advantage but most of the blog commenting is nofollow. So there going to be any benefit out of it.
I recently just like having people comment on my blog. Can make me feel my time writing them is validated. So I feel it only right to do so for others. It’s an understanding positive thing, and maybe not so easy to bank, but its real to me.
