I have discussed earlier about How Commenting helps a blog to drive more traffic and How to get more comments? and they got a huge response, In continuation to my earlier posts I would like to add a few more points to keep in mind while commentating. Most of the blogs will have certain policies for comments like keywords usage in name space, links in the comments.
Here are the things to keep in mind while commentating on other blogs & websites:
Brand with Real Name: I prefer to use my original name in the comments and I personally avoid using keywords in the comments and at it times it tends to deletion of your comments. Keywords in comments will never help the commentator to get the traffic instead it drives traffic to the particular site where you have commented. If you wish you can use you site name followed by a separator with your name like “Rajesh Kanuri @ TechCats” or “Rajesh Kanuri | TechCats” which makes sense and helps you in recognizing you and your blog. Branding your own personality is also as important as branding your blog.
Email Address: Always use a valid email address to keep yourself updated with the conservations you start and always be active in the discussions you start. I recommend using a different mail id for comments and dedicate that to blogging.
Signatures: Most of the persons will leave HTML signatures of their blogs or affiliates links at the end of the comments. Never do that the anti-spam plugins like Aksimet were more intelligent and they will straight away drive you into spam box. Also never leave links unrelated to the topic and don’t share pirate/illegal download links in the comments. It may help the crowd but will create a negative impact in social media.
Thanks: Never end up commenting like “Thanks” “Nice Post” to increase your backlinks do remember that they will do more harm rather than doing favor as even the reader who is nowhere related blogging will also feel that you were a junk person.
Let us know about the tips to keep in mind while commenting, I know that you have better ideas.

Hey Rajesh, Nice compilation.
May I add another tip. It is kind of generic communication etiquette but also applicable to blogging/commenting. Do not engage in personal attack. If you disagree with someone’s point of view, let it be known, but with courtesy and respect.

As you have written commenting is one of the source for getting traffic…….. But the problem is that you need to be regular on commenting or else the traffic you get from commenting on other blogs will diminish……..
As rigthly mentioned by you it is better to comment about the topic (may be pros or cons) rather than just comenting by say thanks or nice post etc………

if one is serious in commenting that suggest the one to be serious about commenting.. even a well established blog with no updates for a long time will see some downfall of traffic
I dont like someone who comment with HTML or only “Thanks”, for just advert their site
“Thanks” or Nice Post” are the terms which make me turn off..
Nice Find. This info is really helpful. thanks for sharing.
Hey nice post Rajesh. I always try using a one and same e-mail id everywhere so I can be connected with the posts I comment on. Also I agree with your point of not putting links in your comments as they get caught as SPAM.
linking in the comments is the one I consider seriously.. I saw many bloggers leaving their link as the signature at the end of the comment..
What you said is right friend… Commenting is beneficial for both the blogs. Its shows our online presence… And also while commenting we should use the same username, gravatar…
Commenting like “Nice post, thanks for article” will not be effective… Many blog authors will not moderate such comments. So we have to make comment regarding to the article posted in that blog.. One more thing we should be regular in commenting in other blogs…

Well, you have managed to bring up yet another good topic which requires discussion I see TechSanta
In response to the topic posted , I believe that most users are somewhat lazy when it comes to commenting or responding on other blogs/sites . Somehow , we have not only become lazy as a society when it comes to physical activity , but we have also become lazy when it comes to the form of expression . If you will notice , everyone uses acronyms or abbreviations to convey their thoughts – personally : I deplore this . In fact , I have difficulty in trying to decipher what what one implies in using ttyl & rolf , imho etc .. which has somehow become the norm & acceptable amongst internet users . I wish that people would just make an effort to fully write / spell out what they are implying and not use abbreviated terminology . Also , I believe that most users tend to comment only if : someone has commented on their blog /site – and so they do this as a form of reciprocation ( which again is wrong ) ; so they tend to return the favor with a simple : ‘ Thanx 4 UR comment ‘ type of response . I hate that . I would like a user to comment based upon their view / opinion, based on the topic posted – not just ‘ great post ! keep up the good work ! ‘ what work ? its not as if Im working in a cotton field picking cotton ! 
Give me your opinion , your feedback, your constructive criticism and I will def respond ! If a user posts a simple good post ! & thanks ! , I can openly admit that I will not bother to ever respond to such a user . If one wishes to draw comments and user feedback to their own blogs / sites , then they should be aware that , they must also make the effort of being avid & constructive comment contributors on other blog sites as well . One hand washes the other & both wash the face . Enough said 
Thank you Raj

Very illustrated and detailed post.. It is the best comment I ever had in my blog…
nice points, i really hate those commentators that posts links at the end of their comments, thinking it will make a cool signature but is nothing more than spamming.
However, lately i have seen that the quality of commenting has improved. Perhaps its akisment and bad-behavior kind of plugins that might force the commentators to say a little more than, “nice points
” but i feel that making good comments is also a habit, once you start making good comments after reading the posts in full, you kind of keep doing it on a regular basis

For pun I wanted to add “Nice tips” .. though @serious note you put some good points here and specially signature part. These days 2-3 budding bloggers are commenting on my blog actively but probably coz of awareness they put their blog signature and Akismet out them into spam one.. Anyways.. I’m sure these points will help such commentators and we will some meaning ful comments.
