Why No One Comments on Your Blog and What to Do about It?


One of the biggest worries bloggers have is the silent blog syndrome. After putting endless hours of hard work into your blog, you find that it remains silent. No one comments. No one argues. No one praises. It’s a dark and lonely place.

How do you get people to comment on your blog? What tricks, techniques, and powers of persuasion must you possess? A quiet blog can be depressing, while an active blog is exciting. Once people start chiming in, sharing tips, arguing points, and having a conversation, you feel as if your blogging existence has finally been validated.
In this article, I want to explain some of the reasons why people might not be commenting on your blog. And I’m going to tell you what you can do to fix it.

Why no one comments on your blog

Before I dive into the how-to of creating a comment-happy blog, I want to give you some advice on how you should approach the issue.

We often approach the question of gaining comments as if it’s something we can, by trick or by force, get people to do. Actually, it doesn’t work that way. Commenting on a blog is something that your readers do voluntarily.

They choose to do it because they want to. And what prompts their volition? Really outstanding content. It can be outstandingly good. It can be outstandingly bad. It can be outstandingly controversial. It just needs to be outstanding. Create outstanding content before thinking, “How can I get people to comment?”

In addition to that, commenting is really about marketing. If there is no one to read a blog, there will be no comments. If you want blog commenting, you also have to do blog marketing.

Now that we got that out of the way, let’s dive into your blog and figure out why you’re not getting comments.

Do you have a bad comment system?

Let’s start at the ground floor. Can people easily leave a comment? If not, that’s a problem.

I know there are blogs where I would be willing to leave a comment, but I just can’t do it because of a broken comment system. Maybe the Captcha code isn’t working. Or I’m forced to choose an avatar. Or I have to log in to some system. Or I have to wait for the moderator to approve my comment. Or I don’t even know where to click to leave a comment.

All of these factors are comment killers. Look at your blog commenting process with fresh eyes. Or have someone else look at it, navigate it, and try to leave a comment. Fix any barriers and move on.

A good way to ensure that you don’t have these problems is to stick with basic commenting systems. You don’t need to sign up for any crazy commenting systems. Using the default commenting system that comes with WordPress is good enough.

Do you have a poor site design?

If someone doesn’t like your site design, sorry, but they’re not going to leave a comment. I know, it sounds cold and heartless, but design really matters to a potential commenter.

My blog is designed to support interaction. Without even reading an entire article, a user can directly click through to the comments.

Beyond that, I make my comment call to action very simple and straightforward:

When you try to stuff a lot of different elements at the end of a blog, you miss the golden moment for capturing a would-be commenter.

Also, you should show the comments that other people left for the new visitors to see. If you are piping in without knowing what’s already in the queued comments, it’s like saying something in the middle of a conversation that you haven’t even been listening to.

Forbes, for example, does a poor job of encouraging comment interaction because of its busy design and a no-show comment stream:

When you try to stuff a lot of different elements at the end of a blog, you miss the golden moment for capturing a would-be commenter.

Also, you should show the comments that other people left for the new visitors to see. If you are piping in without knowing what’s already in the queued comments, it’s like saying something in the middle of a conversation that you haven’t even been listening to.

Forbes, for example, does a poor job of encouraging comment interaction because of its busy design and a no-show comment stream:

comment forbes

And for this reason, Forbes doesn’t get a ton of comments per post.

Your site design needs to help encourage comments. A well-designed blog is the starting point for anything good in life, comments included.

Do you blog as a corporate entity?

One of the hardest things to do is to blog as the voice of a business. Does a business write? Does a business speak? Does a business blog?

It’s a pretty awkward way to write. And it’s painfully boring to read.

The best blogs are those that come from a person, an individual…someone with a voice, emotion, feeling, passion, and experiences.

You probably recognize blogs from people like Seth Godin, Perez Hilton, and Tim Ferris. Why? Because these blogs are hot! They’re comment-heavy. They’re popular. And, get this: they’re personal.

Even if the content isn’t written exclusively by the personality backing the blog, you know that the content is going to have a very personal flavor. You don’t have to be a celebrity to create content like this. You just need to be yourself.

People will comment and interact with other people, not with a faceless and soulless corporate mouthpiece. Be personal, and the comments will come.

Do you say anything original?

“Being original” is really hard. You might whine and think that originality is impossible. But when you read about Nikola Tesla, Thomas Edison, Elon Musk, or Jackson Pollock, you’d eat your words about originality.

You can be original. But, like I said, it’s really hard.

As hard as it may be, strive for originality on your blog. Or, if you can’t be 100% original, steal the best ideas from the brightest people, and put your spin on it. Say something unoriginal in an original way.

Do you have a boring writing style?

Great content gets shared and commented on. Boring content gets ignored.

If you’re struggling with a no-comment blog, you may want to explore ways of getting more interesting. Too many passive sentences? No strong verbs? Lack of anecdotes? Dry topics?

Figure it out, and rework your content to make it a bit more exciting. In other words, spice up your writing style. Be personal, clear, and concise.

Do you ignore interaction?

When you write a blog post, you’re starting a conversation. And, if you start a conversation, you should do the polite thing and continue that conversation.

If someone comments on your blog, do your best to respond to it. You don’t have to write a long personal letter to everyone, but at least acknowledge their presence. They’ve done you a favor, so return it.

When you, as the author of a blog, ignore interaction, it discourages any further interaction. I do my best to jot a quick reply to every commenter. I can’t provide answers to all the questions or address every issue. I do, however, want to respond with courtesy and respect to every person who has taken the time to read and respond to my content.

Do you ask for comments?

There’s no shame in asking for comments. Just ask for them.

If you remember only one point from this article, this is the one: To get comments, ask for them.

It’s not begging. It’s not groveling. It’s not whining. It’s a polite invitation to have a civil discussion about an important issue.

Here are some of the angles you can use to encourage participation:

Ask a leading question – I usually raise a question at the end of each article, just to get people thinking. Sometimes, these questions surface in the comments.
Raise an issue for discussion – rather than have a maybe-approach to comments, go ahead and start the discussion yourself. Tell people what to talk about.
Tell your readers their input is valuable – your readers want to know that they have a voice too. Although you’re providing information, you welcome their perspectives and insights. Tell them so. “I’d love to hear what you think about this issue. Let me know in the comments.”
When asking for comments, keep in mind that requests like “please comment!” are weak and uninspiring. Try to be a bit smoother and more engaging:

“I’m wondering what other people think about the new widget. Tell me about your experience in the comments below.”
“I’m probably leaving out some information. What other tips can you provide about this issue?”
“Share your story in the comments.”
Do you provide something of value in your writing?

When people read your content, they’re basically giving you their money. As you already know, time is money. If readers spend their time/money on your content, they expect to derive some value. Is your content valuable? Is it worth your readers’ time/money?

If it is, they might voice this in the comments. If you’re not providing something of value, people will feel slightly ripped off. They spent this time reading your article but got nothing good from it.

The more value you provide in your content, the better comment interaction you’re going to score. Think of your readers as customers dropping a few dollars in order to read your blog post. What are you going to give them in return?

Do you write anything really compelling?

You’ve probably been to an epic concert, performance, speech, or movie at the end of which you just wanted to stand up and let out a shout of appreciation.

You can create content that evokes similarly strong emotions and reactions. People want to be motivated, encouraged, or challenged. If you write in a way that moves people, they will likely be moved to leave a comment.

It goes back to the issue I keep harping on — it’s all about the content.

Do you ever get controversial?

Sometimes, you just need to say what you think and let the chips fall where they may. Strong people are not afraid to be opinionated, and they have the thick skin to take the kickback. If you have a personal blog, you have the right to voice your concerns, raise questions, or confront people.

The more open you are, the more likely people are to respond with comments.

A blog is like any form of human communication. It’s a two-way street. But in order for the listener to respond, he or she must feel like there’s something to respond to. If you dip your toe in the waters of controversy, you can be pretty sure someone is going to respond.

If you feel strongly about a relevant trend, current issue, or hot topic, go ahead and write freely. Even if it’s a tad on the controversial side.

Conclusion

There are so many advantages to an active blog. You generate excitement, get engagement, elicit feedback, establish authority, invite backlinks, and get extra SEO juice.

It’s a beautiful thing. All you have to do is get rid of the barriers to comments and produce the best content you possibly can.

What else can you do to invite comments on your blog?

People should understand that If they wants to be a successful person in their business or blogging then they must have to fight every time with the laziness. Right?
Because laziness is something like which will always force you to stop working and take some rest. The habit of taking some rest will destroy yourself one day and you wouldn’t be able to work anymore because you will be totally addicted to having rest. In short, you will become lazy.
When you will feel boring while working then understand that laziness is attracting you because you are not taking interest in your work, You are not concentrating on your work. Your body wants a rest for some time.
If it’s happening with you then this is the warning for you that You are destroying yourself.
You are leaving your work on tomorrow, every day you do same and leaves your work on tomorrow is the biggest sign of laziness and In this way, you will never complete your work and the time passes out.
So the only solution is, You should always fight with it, whenever you will feel that you should take some rest then shake that feeling and think that you will take rest but after completing the work  which you are doing.
In this way, you will complete your work and can also fight with laziness. Taking rest is not bad but taking rest by leaving your work is not good. So always try to concentrate on your work and motivate yourself whenever you will distract from the work or feel laziness. 😀

Towards Other Things & Won’t Let You Focus on Your Target.
Have you ever distracted while working?

Every person while working may distract from their work. Sometimes it happens that when you are working then some guests came to your house and you got distracted.

Are you really not reading other articles or other blogs?
If you will say that Yes I am.
Then I would must say that you are sweeping your knowledge slowly slowly.
You should must understand that people read in order to learn. Right?
When people read other articles then they learn new and innovative things which increase their knowledge. The purpose of reading other articles is to steal others knowledge and ideas.
If you will stop reading then you will stop learning and you wouldn’t have any new and innovative idea.
When you have stopped reading then you may notice that you are also unable to write articles. Right?
Yes, it really happens and even happened with me. Whenever I stop reading then I always face problems while writing articles.
I always think what should I write in order to make article interesting but I wouldn’t get any idea to make the article of such type.
Therefore we should always read to learn. If we will read regularly then we can easily cover an outstanding article for others. Right? 😀

#4. You Aren’t Posting Articles Since Many Days

Are you really not posting regularly?
If Yes, then let me ask a question to you.
Do you ever heard that
Practice Makes Perfect !!!
If you will say, Yes I heard then why are you doing this my friend.
If you will not practice regularly, If you will not write articles regularly then Obviously one day will come when you couldn’t write a single line for your article.
Have you ever think that why cricketers play cricket regular?
So as to improve themselves , so as to make themselves perfect, so that they can perform best in big tournaments.
Same formula applies to every work, You always need to practice regularly in order to make yourself perfect.
It will be the biggest sign which will force you to stop blogging today because when you wouldn’t be able to write a single line then how you could work on the BLOG-O-SPHERE.
The only solution is, you should write articles regularly to make yourself perfect in writing articles. Remember when you will write articles regularly then one day will come when you will be perfect in writing articles. Remember my words. 😀

#5. You Aren’t Getting Any Result

Are you really expecting result?
Hahaha :D, You are going in the wrong direction my friend.
How you could expect any result when you are doing these above mistakes on regular basis.
  • You are showing laziness towards you work.
  • You aren’t focusing on your work.
  • You aren’t learning regularly.
  • You aren’t practicing regularly.
After doing all these mistakes, you shouldn’t expect any result because you aren’t doing anything else which could create result for you.
If you really wants to create result then you must need to avoid all these mistakes and you have to work hard.
When you will start working hard then a day will come, when you will got the result of your hard work. 😀

Why Most Bloggers Fail Eventually – How To Start A Blog That Will Make You Money

Blogging Is Tough
Not a day goes by where you see a blogger getting views and likes in masses and earning a nice sum of money on the side.

And all they have to do, to generate that audience and money, is talk about things they experience in life.

You can’t even go through 3 pictures on your Instagram account, without seeing someone famous in the blogging community.

Some are even featured on billboards on high streets and the face for certain brand products.

Being the unique person that you are, you decide to create your own blog and start documenting your life and experiences, to make a living from it.

After all, it seems easy enough to write a blog post occasionally and snap a few pictures here and there, as the rest picks up on it’s own.

With all the things you’ve been through in life and all the funny stories you have to tell, you have an endless list to blog about.

Fast forward a few months and suddenly you realize, you still haven’t made a single penny and you start to doubt you know anything about how to start a blog that will make you money.

On average you get about 10-15 views per day (most of which are family members and friends), no one seems to be leaving comments and you’re drying out on material to blog about.

Your social media profiles have a few followers and everything seems to just stay the way it is although you put in so much effort on a daily basis.

Eventually, you decide that blogging is not for you and that all other successful bloggers know the secret or have something special you don’t, which is why you failed at it.

Plus it is a time-consuming activity and you’re busy with your real life anyway so it’s time to throw in the towel.

The Traps
Here’s a list of things most new bloggers forget, ignore or fall into, which usually is also the reason they never earn any income and give up eventually.

#1 Blogging isn’t easy!

If you want to become a serious blogger, you have to realize that the “secret” or “special thing” all the other successful bloggers have, is that they are actually hard workers.

Have a look at their blog or their social media…

There is constant new content on there and professional looking one as well. How often do you update your blog? How many times a month do you consider a lot of content?

Especially with social medias such as Instagram, you should be posting at least 1 image a day, with several hashtags, to grow your audience and maintain your existing one.

Anything below that simply won’t cut it out.

That doesn’t mean you have to be active within every area of the online world. You can be successful with just a YouTube channel or just your Instagram account.

But if you pick one area, make sure to stick with it and eventually branch out to others. So first rule of becoming a successful blogger, is to have the right mindset.

#2 Pick the right niche!

The second mistake most people make is not narrowing down their audience.

You have to pick the right niche and know your audience before typing your very first word.

Actually pick the right niche, even before you buy your domain!

You don’t want to invest in a great domain name, just to realize later on that it doesn’t fit your niche. It will only be misleading towards your audience if you do.

The other reason you want to have that right niche for you, is to keep it interesting for yourself.

Here’s a list of things most new bloggers forget, ignore or fall into, which usually is also the reason they never earn any income and give up eventually.

niche-blogging

Remember the times when you were assigned different types of homework and you would keep the worst for last? You don’t want that same feeling when it comes to your blog.

Creating new content should be fun and maybe a little tedious but exciting. You should want to research new things about your topic because you’re generally interested.

It will make your task so much easier and more personal when you type out your text, which also converts onto your text. You audience will notice your sincerity and honesty.

So remember to Pick the right niche!

#3 No need to spend a fortune!

The next point is a bit of a controversial one, but I find it important to at least mention it if you’re considering a blogging career in the future.

I’ve seen a lot of people come and go and spend way more money than I ever did in my 8 first months of blogging.

As soon as they find out about outsourcing, they hire people to do all their work and wonder why they get no traffic, penalties from search engines and no conversions.

Don’t get me wrong, I’ve outsourced a fair amount myself, but if you want something done properly, you should understand how it works first.

You can’t join the game and expect someone else to do all the dirty work before you know the basics.

Once you understand these, you can consider outsourcing and hiring freelancers. For instance, if you hire someone to write your next blogpost, it should have a similar style to the previous articles you’ve written.

But if you start off with hiring people, you’ll have a different type of text with no identity to your blog.

Additionally you might not even know how to check it for copyrights or other factors that could get your site penalties.

The truth is, you can start off blogging, pretty much for free. The minimum investment should be a domain registration and a hosting plan.

#4 Know the basics!

As for the final point, I’ve briefly addressed it above but, it definitely needs its own sub category.

When it comes to basics, I can’t stress enough how important it is to get them right. You could be blogging for months and see barely any improvement.

None of your articles rank on Googles first page, people spend less than 30 seconds on your site and creating a single post takes ages for you to get out.

If you’re familiar with these issues, you might have to go back to the beginning.

Make sure you familiarize yourself with the basics of SEO (Search Engine Optimization). Find out what keywords are what LSI keywords are and what long tail keywords are.

Most importantly find out how to use them properly. It may seem tedious at first and requires some effort but it will be so much worth it in the long run.

Therefore remember to know and master the basics!

But now that you know some of the typical mistakes people make and how easy it is to fall in these traps, let’s look at some of the solutions there are.

Regardless if you’re already blogging or about to start, don’t throw away the efforts you’ve made. Nothing is lost and you can still become a success.

Solutions:

As you know now, blogging requires a lot of work and it can be tough to keep up with all the tasks you set yourself.

But one thing you should start implementing in your daily routine, is a checklist. Write down all the things you have to do the night before, and prioritize accordingly.

(Small tip – Do the most tedious ones first! Once they’re out the way the rest flies by!)

Next, you want to stay organized (which usually goes hand in hand with creating checklists).

As for choosing the right niche and knowing your audience, we’ve learned that this is vital to continuously have new food for thought and ideas to blog about.

But even the best niche can give you a writers block at one point or another. There are several things you can do to avoid this:

Set up a Google alert or more to get news stories directly to your email
Go back to old content and pick out ideas and create an entire post about it
Find blogs, forums and other online communities in your niche and get inspired
Often a question on forums make great posts people would love to read. Plus you know there’s a high chance other people are curious and ask themselves that same question.

Seeing other authority sites in your niche can inspire you and show you which way to go.

As for not spending a fortune, this still applied! However some people may find it easier to sign up to trusted courses to learn the basics and get support when needed.

But before you go and chase every online product promising to make millions online, make sure to read reviews about each product and do realize that all the information you need to be a successful blogger, can be found online for free!

It may require a bit more effort to find the right sources and dig through the information, but it’s out there!

Try connecting with bloggers, comment on their posts, learn from them and pick their brains. Go through older posts and see what they can teach you.

Eventually it will click and you’re just a step away from becoming an authority in your niche yourself.

And don’t forget that the shiny object syndrome is very real and many fall victim to it (I did so myself).

You have all the resources and skills it takes to know how to start a blog that will make you money.

Once you find your path, you should stick to it and not get distracted by the many other options, possibilities and ways of earning an online income.

Do these things and you are well ahead of many other bloggers that fail within the first few months. It’s often a matter of persistence.

Now continue blogging!

How to Avoid Getting your Blog Posts Copied

How to Avoid Getting your Blog Posts Copied

How Does it feel when your hours of work researching, writing and proof-reading gets leeched without any token of appreciation like link back to your blog or an acknowledgement.
There are hundreds of thousands of auto blogs which fuel on RSS feed aggregation and pure plagiarism. I wouldn’t bother if my blog has considerably huge authority. I evidenced few of my articles from my relatively new blogs without much backlink background getting scraped and the leechers outranking my blog.
 Thanks to the Google’s new DMCA Policy, It has taken DMCA claims into consideration for Search Engine Rankings. But it is virtually impossible to file DMCA complaints against every autoblogs leeching your content. So the best way is to avoid getting  scrapped and create a system using third party services and following tips to make most out of scrapped content from your blog.

Tips to Avoid Getting Copied by scrapers

There are many things you can do like disable click on your blog, avoid offering complete feed, implement services like TYNT, WordPress INK to get free link back and we will discus that in here.
RSS Post Excerpts: 
RSS is the only platform autoblogs and scrapers are powered with. Since each time your blog is updated with fresh content, the RSS Dynamically gets updated and notifies the scraper. It is advisable to generate only the article summary and social qualifiers like Read More, linking back to your site.
Disable Right-Click: 
 Disabling Right Click would make copy pasting almost impossible. Although it can still be copy pasted through Page Source. But Disabling Right Click discourages content leechers and it helped me drop the count four fold There are numerous plugins for WordPress and Javascript snippets for HTML to disable Right Click and can be implemented in couple of minutes. If your blog deals with programming, designing e.t.c,It is never advised to disable right-click because right-click is involved while copying codes 
Scheduling Newsletters and Feed: 
If your leecher is implementing RSS aggregation, your content can be scraped instantly after getting published on your blog. There is a fair change of the latter getting indexed first and outranking the original article. So it is suggested to schedule the newsletters and Feed to update few hours or days after post getting published (Depending on your blog’s age). Most of the blogs including Tricky Tricks follow this technique.  
Add Backlinks Automatically: 
Most of the leechers tend not to acknowledge or provide a link back to the original source, this nullifies the benefit of Article Syndication.
Whenever a line is copied from your article and pasted in another form, it includes a custom acknowledgement and a link back (E.G: Read More at SomeURL, Format). WordPress INK is a a tailor fit app for this job. It can be installed in couple of minutes.
Build Authority:
This is the best solution to stay out of all this hassle. Building authority or good Off-Page SEO can boost your index rate. My Blog posts get indexed within seconds. Once you’ve managed to gain authority and a fair index rate, you no longer need to worry about plagiarism.
Gaining authority is not easy and but with a proper promotion plan for your blog, you can easily get it in no time. From my experience, it’s easy to gain authority with a niche site and high-quality articles.
Flash Warnings:
Flashing a DMCA Protected Badge on my homepage might scare away the leechers. Mention that your content may not be copied or reproduced without your consent. Get your Website DMCA Protected now. DMCA TakeDown services are the last thing you can resort to, if you fed up with your content getting copied.
These are just few of the ways which you can do to save your content from being copied. But, scrappers are getting smart and they are finding ways like converting partial feed into full feed, and with other auto-blogging tools, they can still copy your content.


So for now, I can think of only following tips which can help every blogger, but if you have another trick to share, do let me know via comments. If you find this article useful, then do share it on Facebook and Twitter.
