Comment Marketing
This is a great Whiteboard Friday about comment marketing. The do’s and don’ts are generally covered.
One thing I found (and it is a bit funny, because Rand Fishkin mentions it in the video), is that you really do need to pay attention to using carefully constructed sentences and proof read before posting a comment. You see, I felt compelled to leave a comment on Rand’s blog only to see a message about spam and content filters.
What did I do wrong? I misspelled WBF (WhiteBoard Friday).
When I realised what I had done, I mentally said to myself “WTF!”
I think that active and constructive participation is often undervalued. I have some fantastic clients and business partners that originated from comments I have added to other people’s posts.
Like everything else it becomes valuable when you give it some thought and effort and apply some quality control. Do you have something meaningful to add to the debate or are you just making some noise to be visible to the ‘right’ people?
Proof checking and reading comments back for sense before posting – yes 100% Alan Stainer

And it looks like my comment on Rand’s blog has now passed moderation and is visible at last.
