Commenting in The Site-comment
Hello Everyone,
I have a question? Has anyone noticed that when you comment on some websites in the site comment they do don’t reply back. I make it a point to answer all the questions people ask me because I understand that they take time to comment on my website.
Would it not be nice if people can really reply and answer all the questions others ask. I think it’s an amazing idea

You need a plugin to get an answer back, I think. Otherwise your comment just stays on your site, and if the person happens to see it that is good. I am not sure which plugin...someone on here should know. Let's ask: Which plugin will send comments to the person making them so they will have a chance to reply?
this is the plugin i have used successfully for a couple of years Fran.

Hi Cinderella, at one time you were able to get comments back from the person you have given feedback to. I do not see that any more.
I think it is un-fortunate. I do spend a lot of time, giving feedback for just 1 point. The equation somehow does not work out for me.
Best wishes,
Michael
We all need to be aware of people commenting on our websites. The more comments the better including your replies to any comments made. By not replying you are losing valuable ranking points with Google.

I do reply that’s why I wrote this post because I have commented on many websites no one has ever replied not even A Thank You not 😱
While we would like our comments to be responded to there are some people who just don't bother.
Just keep your comments going and ignore those who don't answer you.

In full agreement with you Cinderella. Not replying to comments on a site is the silliest thing to do because Google looks very closely at what sort of interaction you have with your visitors. It will rank you better if you are actively communicating with your readers.
On a personal note: To me, not replying to a message someone has left on your website is first of all rude, never mind the rest.
Are you serious about doing business or not? If yes, then do it properly and treat it as a business. If you had a brick and mortar business in a busy street of London, Paris, New York, or wherever, and someone entered your shop to ask you a question about an item displayed in your shop window, would you not reply?
Best wishes Cinderella.

I am guilty! I am very new here. I have posted comments after requesting them to my site....and I have not always replied to ALL comments because a few were just like "Good job, I like what you did there" without any real questions. My first comment I submitted to another person who requested one, I was a bit too harsh on the English grammar and spelling, and they rejected the comment, and that was their choice, and in hindsight, rightfully so. So, now I just comment what I like of what I have read of their latest post they are asking...If I find some real problems, I private message them with my concerns on the post. I will endeavor to reply to everyone who comments on my posts going forward! I am trying to be a good and helpful member!
If you want to help someone regarding their website Use Feedback it’s there for that reason or private message them..
Thanks a lot for being honest Appreciate that

I get that kind of thing as well. Leave a comment, check the website, no reply.
Quite possibly the person in question hasn't activated site comments in the back office of their WordPress theme. That would be the only reason I can think of for not seeing your comment on someone's website.
On the other side of things, I do agree. The person receiving our comments should, at the very least, reply to that comment. It's necessary in order to create a conversation.
Yeah, sometimes I see my comment but no reply and other time, I know my comment has been accepted but can't find it on the web page. Just make me ask ???
I believe there is some training on how to activate site comments so they are visible on a post. Tried to find it but no luck
