Blog commenting can be a great way to build back links and generate traffic to your site. I comment on other blogs every day. Unfortunately too many people try to automate this and don’t participate.

They are SPAMMERS. Have to love idiots like this.

Now I have numerous test blogs for a wide variety of purposes. Just got this comment on one of them today and it set off this rant.

I read your article with great pleasure. Thank you.

Now I would spam that comment if it was on any blog but the kicker is the post it was left on.

Sure glad this idiot enjoyed my article. The worst part is that I normally ignore these notices and just let them sit unapproved in the queue. This particular blog was put up just for the purpose of doing some video instructions for a project a while ago. That is the only post on the blog.

The idiots have left others. Here is a selection of the non porn/Viagra/ring tone comments left there. Can you see a pattern?

Hi, nice posts there :-) thank’s for the intriguing information

Hi, Congratulations to the site owner for this marvelous work you’ve done. It has lots of useful and interesting data.

Thanks for the useful info. It’s so interesting

In my opinion you are not right. I suggest it to discuss. Write to me in PM, we will communicate.

Listen there are ways to use automation to find blogs to comment on and I use them but you need to actually be involved in the process and add to the conversation.

The bad part is that the people that actually read this will be those that don’t need to. Maybe one of you is thinking of using some of this crap and this will make you think twice.

If not, at least I feel a lot better ranting it out.
