Comment on other blogs

Commenting on other blogs is very beneficial to drive traffic to your blog.  Many blogs allow you to leave your website when you comment so in turn, you are getting your name out there.  

First, google blogs that are in the same niche.  Google other weight loss blogs, health blogs, home based business blogs and so forth.  Find some recent posts and start commenting.  Some blogs have a comment luv plug-in that shows your last blog post after your comment.  Those blogs are awesome (http://losingthisweight.com is one of them!)

Now, when you comment don't say things like "good post", "very informative" or one sentence comments.  Actually add something to the post or applaud the writer's ability to get their message across the blogosphere.  A good comment would be something like this (don't copy and paste this comment because it really depends on the post you are commenting on):

I really enjoyed reading this post.  I would also add (add in your suggestions to the post). 

Don't sound spammy and don't put your website or business site in the comment box.  When you comment it will give you the option of leaving your website.  You can leave your blog or company website.  I suggest leaving your blog so that people visiting your blog from that post will see an actual person behind the comment and not just a company website.
