A popular associate marketer newly left a comment. It was initially fixed in the spam filter and when I retrieved it, I did a fast Google search for the comment in quotes. The same correct comment was posted word-for-word on more than a few other blogs, even when each article was about entirely different topics.
This was not anybody but a recognized marketer. And this was not the first time he left general comments on my site. I do not have anything next to him as a person because I do not know him personally but this sort of performance just turns me off. It does not request to me at all. And he probably just lost someone who could really get him some traffic.
This is a great example, one neighboring on spam but I feel it is analytical of what happens what you only view comments as a means to contact instant benefits.
When you believe in the short-term, you are usually overlooking the value of relationships. And if you desire to be successful in any industry, it helps to make friends with group who can help to get you there. Commenting is an unusual easy way to not only get guests to your site, but develop equally beneficial relationships along the way.
This is not about satisfying an influencer or lying to curry help. This does not mean you should not drop comment links. This is all about having a similar mindset, about rethinking how commenting can advantage you in the long run, over again.
I think that adopting a networking-oriented viewpoint when commenting will actually get better your comment quality, not to mention that people will more simply recognize that you are reaching out or difficult to connect on a more personal level. Bloggers are usually good at sniffing out people who are just looking for some quick traffic.
