De-Lurk and Comment more often

dotone is being redesigned, for that I’ve been in the process of upgrading to the latest branch of Textpattern. While testing the new design on posts and comments, I came to this realization, most of the posts end up with no comments while on average at the time of posting more than 100 views still end up with no comment.

No comments even on requested posts

Last week I posted on how to setup Mobile TV on Sony Ericsson P990i and M600i, yet no responses, even though it was a requested post by nine readers through e-mails and two through comments.

Let’s talk and De-Lurk

The beauty of blogging is not only in posting but reacting and sharing as well. It’s a real joy when a comment appears in the comments list that is not a spam nor a commercial message. Please comment, it’s really valuable to have your comments, it is a motivating incentive to every post I write.

Lack of comments really worried me of one fact, are my posts not the right one for you? Or are my posts not interesting enough? Tell me what you think. Meanwhile a new design is coming on the way with a color that I’ve never worked on before. So kindly let me know what you think.

There’s nothing wrong with your posts man, don’t worry about it. I enjoy reading your blog as much as you enjoy writing it.

I subscribe to your feed, and comment once in a while. Get good quality, interesting posts coming, and get your site URL out there as much as you can, and people will notice sooner or later, and obviously the more people who follow your site, the more potential there is for comments.

Overall commenting is not something most people do a lot of because it takes time. I find the same on our site, that a lot of people log in (or not) to read posts, but few are active and post anything. #

I came across your blog because of our common affiliation with WaSP ILG, and although most of your posts are not strictly about web standards, it is interesting to read about mobile technology gadgets for the super-rich or particular country specific topics like blocking twitter. That opens a whole new world to me. Though I don’t comment so often, still it’s an interesting and inspiring read. #
