I typically leave a comment if the author asks a question at the end of the post that is asking for feedback.

 

Thanks... I guess that makes sense.

So, my friends... where do I go to add a "subscribe to comments" link?  I love to be able to have any followup comments automatically notify me so I can go back to the site and participate, much like this thread has a subscribe button.

 

Any ideas?

There is a plugin for that. Just Google subscribe to comments plugin.

 

Thanks Miss T... I think I've added one... I guess I'll find out on tomorrow's post?!  Thanks... I hope this helps the dialogue continue!

Definitely ask questions at the end of a post. The posts I forget to do this with, have fewer comments. Also, I appreciate when the blog owner responds to my comment. And I love Comment Luv!

 

Doctor Stock Said:

Thanks Little House... I don't think we've met.  I'm gonna go drop by your blog and add it to my Yakezie folder so I can visit regularly.

I appreciate your thoughts!

I think quite a people love comment luv. In addition to this, try to ask some questions at the end of your posts to generate some thought from your readers. Chances are, they'll be more likely to leave a comment.

You need to ask questions in order to facilitate a discussion.

Any thoughts on "links" that help you track with comments?

Sometimes that's add-on thought, other times it's more detailed responses. Depends on time available for all of us, but bottom line is that an engaged blog owner is a good thing!

 

Also, I like to see that other commenters are enthusiastic and bring their own perspectives too, as we can learn (and be entertained) from others as well.
