Enable your reader to leave a comment. Blogs without comment choice = not social media. Respond to people who comment, ideally indented and emailed to them. Write a comment policy in advance. Include a call to action, whether to add a comment, join an email list, click a link, etc. Link both internal and external.

CommentLuv is the reason why if you write a comment and include your blog in the appropriate box, your most-recent blog post will appear under your text after you hit the “submit” button. Comment Redirect forces a new window to pop open every time a comment is added, as a way of thanking you for adding it.
