There are huge benefits for using the site comments platform for the person who gives the comment and the one who receives it. It is all about giving and take!

*By the way, only sites that are hosted on WA can receive site comments.*

Benefits for the Giver:

  • for each comment you give you will earn one credit; please note: you need two credits to request one comment on your site
  • you see other members websites; that could give you new ideas for blogs, keywords, layout, menu and themes for your own site
  • implement what you pick up on your site. For example, when I commented on a site a while ago I saw the theme I liked. Now I am using it as well.

Benefits for the Receiver:

  • comments on your site start up engagement and might lead to a discussion thread
  • helps improving ranking and is great for SEO
  • add more content on your blog through comments
  • comments can give you new ideas for your next blog

Nathaniell, who has been a longtime member, wrote a great blog post on how using the site comments platform had improved his blog ranking in Google.

I think it is great you did this. Unfortunately, good comments are an issue and people that criticise often forget there are new members learning here and what seems obvious to many of us is completely new to them.:) ~Gina

Hi Gina, that was one of the reasons I created the training. When I started as a Newbie and used the site comments platform. I didn't know that I can change the websites and thought I have to comment on every single one of them. It also took me ages to discover the 'edit my interest' feature. Little things like that, that make a huge difference.
So I hope, more people will find my tutorial.:-)
Best,
Anke

Hi there, Trish, I know that there are sometimes issues with the system when you try to submit your comment.(as mentioned in the tutorial) I experienced problems myself. It can be very annoying when you put a lot of effort and time into writing the comment.
I am not exactly sure what happened in your case. I would try and type your comment directly into the site comments form. You can download Grammarly (as the free version) in your browser to check for spelling etc. Saves the copy and paste process.
If the URL has changed, because the site has changed (your screenshot) then your comment for the other site can't be submitted. Once the new site pops up, you can't go back to the previous one.
I hope it makes sense. Please let me know how you get on.
Cheers Anke

Yupper Anke, I figured the boo-boo with not being able to submit the first comment ... but not what changed the website that was showing when I came back to submit the comment.

Also tested signing onto WA using my tablet that is the ONLY device I own with Google Chrome loaded on it. Personally I do NOT like Google Chrome. I prefer Firefox. Anyway ... I went through the whole thing again ... this time WITHOUT my two monitors to work from ... and the silly comment I submitted wanted MORE info so I chatted on about how the form I was using is NOT browser compatible ... then that wasn't enough so I said I did not like having to type with one finger ... and FINALLY the stupid comment went.

So ... this definitely appears to be ANOTHER browser compatibility issue ... ggrrrrrrr. Oooh well.

Thanks for caring! {{{HUGS!}}}
