Promoting Your Blog Through Comments ?

Many bloggers use to leave comments in someone else's blog, forum to promote their blogs and to get a backlink to their blog. That's not a bad idea. If you post a comment on some article with a link back to your blog you may have a chance to get visitors from that back link. But between promotion, spamming is a fine line so here is a short list of things to keep in mind if you want to promote your blog using comments:

Comment Relative To The Post : I have seen a lot of people commenting off topic, they comments something that is not related to the article posted by the blog owner that sounds spammy.

Use Controversy Sparingly : While most people enjoy a good discussion based on interesting ideas really few of them likes stupid controversy. If you create controversy where none exists you may attract some traffic but few regular readers.

This short list is intended for blog promotion I think it will help many bloggers commenting out there.
