  For me, commenting is no part of my SEO anymore. Commenting is for community building and to get traffic.

  I agree with Dana… and to add one, I used commenting to make online friends and be also known to other bloggers (no way to deny that)… From the 7 tips, I think I need to consider the 5th and the 6th items. I haven’t tried it yet… again, another thanks for reminding me…

    I haven’t done a press release for this site but I have written them for my clients. There are many online options for press releases these days and a good number of them are free.

  I agree with both Dana and Cebu – commenting has built my friendships and community exponentially; if it helps with SEO at all, that’s just gravy for me.

  I’d love to get into both press releases and programming something of my own.

  Commenting definitely helps. After all, you’re getting backlinks to your site.

  I have to say I agree too. Commenting is best for building community.

  Trackbacks from themes and apps is nice.

  Blog comments, and social bookmarks do offer tons of link bait.

  Other then that SEO plug-ins should take care of the rest assuming you name your images appropriately.

  Whether you want to get known in your blogging community or not, blog commenting is a link building method. If you disagree, why not just comment with your name only without including your link.

    You know, I’m doing that more often these days, and I have reasons for it.

    Mostly, on those sites, I’m now well known enough, that my name is carrying the freight. And that’s pretty cool.

    I could easily remove my name from the URL field here on Gabe’s site, but all the regulars no who I am.

    Sometimes, on CommentLuv sites, I remove the commentluv link as well. I’m going to leave it in this one, because it’s stupendously synergistic with your article, and this discussion, on several levels.

    Your article is very good, BTW. Everyone interested in link building and community building must master the basics and understand what you have written. Looking forward to reading more of your work.

  Is it better to bookmark a post in directory and social places before google index that post or after is indexed? Or it is the same?

    I think this will depend on the kind of article. If the article you are going to post is on hot trends, bookmarking it right after you posted the article is a better idea to get more organic traffic. By the way, just to make things clear- what I understand is that every time you post a blog; Google will automatically index it, ahead from other bots. Much faster now that Google has the real-time search results. I have proven this myself when I’m blogging about latest and hottest gadgets on a particular time.

    Personally, I wouldn’t worry too much about the order. Pings occur quite fast but even if you don’t have your post indexed, if you’re a bookmarker, just go for it anyway.

  Solid tips Onibalusi.

  As for commenting, it builds traffic for my blog. As a matter of fact, Gabe stops by my blow now and then and I know that he began to visit only after I commented Free Blog Help.

  Thanks for sharing the do-follow list.
