Too right Chris! "Blog comment marketing" = complete waste of time. Nice to see it spelled out in that post!

Thanks for the video Chris. I agree with most of what she says, but it wasn't totally clear and what she considered spam. I like comments from visitors to my site and blog, but it better be related to my topic.

With so many other marketing avenues, I'm not sure how someone would find the time. Don't we have enough to do already?

@pcstokes: It is tricky to filter the spam from the "ham" with some comments. I'm starting to get more hard-line in my old age! If a comment from a new member just says "nice blog!" and contains a link to a fairly low-quality site, that usually results in an instant deletion/ban!

I often toy with the idea of opening up the comments on this site so that non-members can post too, but I feel that the member registration, while slightly inconvenient, does put off a lot of spammers and link droppers.

Cheers,
Matt
