Make Google Love You!
Why do we want to get as many comments as possible on our website(s)? Well, simply because (relevant) feedback will improve your ranking on google and other search engines! Which is what we all want, right? Being on the first pages of google, getting traffic, building trust with our audience and earning a decent living!
A comment left by a visitor is a sign of commitment to your content. Indeed, when someone takes the time to comment on one of your posts, they decide to start a discussion with you. Google loves websites that have interactions and activity.
Now, people will leave you comments for various reasons and it is really important that you also take the time to get back to them (unless they're spam comments). People contact you through the comments box to :
- annoy you with their own promotions (lol)
- share their opinion, which will not necessarily be the same as yours =)
-thank you for giving them an answer to their question or solving their problem
- ask for further information, related to your post
Help other people out in the process
As a member of Wealthy Affiliate you probably already know that one of the greatest strengths of the program is the mutual help. Kyle & Carson have implemented several means that enable us to boost our businesses by getting comments on our websites.
On Wealthy Affiliate we like to receive help from others and we love giving it back. When you receive a quality comment (one that's really related to your article or that asks an interesting question for example), you only want to do one thing : return the favor! =)
The more comments you will leave to people, the more comments you'll get back as a result and the healthier your website will be!
So do not neglect this aspect of your business: it is essential!
Your website is good and your layout is beautiful doesn't help your website grow, I actually received copy/paste comments here on three different pages, by the same person. lol
But some of the comments I received were really awesome and very engaging and that's what we all want!
If you receive an amazing comment on your website why give copy/paste comments ? You are being helped but you don't want to help back?. That can be frustrating if you spent 3 hours giving quality comments.
By the way, I hope everyone could see this training because some members need to learn the importance of giving good comments before requesting.
