10 Reasons Readers Dont Leave Comments

By Ashish Mohta

Few days I was going through some of the posts of other bloggers.One of the most things a blogger always looks is for a comment.Lot of people come to the blog but leave either reading it or just down bother about it.I don’t want to offend any of the readers but i think both sides can say why readers don’t leave a comment.Some of the most important ones i found while interacting with my few readers are:-

  1. We want to say something but how do we express, Where do I Comment?
  2. I have learnt something new but I need sometime to think over it.Well They never come back.As customers readers don’t have time either.
  3. You know me but you never respond me.This could be one of the major points where bloggers loose there readers too.
  4. There is too much going on this post and I cant be a part of it.
  5. I know what a comment is but I need more interaction, i see only “thx”, “good post” etc.
  6. This post is good but too much for me, You can say i don’t have enough brains for it.
  7. Its really my favorite blog but I am too tired I will try it next time.
  8. I wish you had some simpler way to ask the questions? Don’t ask me why Earth rotates.
  9. You ask me to comment like You are my Boss.Can you be a little polite
  10. Blah You write the same stuff as probloggers, How you made it different.?

    Also, there should be incentives for commenting like ajaydsouza who has enabled the dofollow plugin for comments on his blog

    Encourages people to comment atleast for the linkback
