Frustrating Blog moderator

[joelchrist]

HI guys..

I have found some of blogs list as a dofollow blogs. ya they are too good to read. But the blogs under moderator control. i have submitted my comments on that blog honestly. Eventhough i am honest, they would not accept my comments and terribly rejected my comments. Why is it so? Do moderators do their right job? if they really dont want comment, then what is need of comment section on their blogs? Frustrating moderators wasting my precious time.....

Whats all your thought about this guys? Am i wrong?

Hello, Joel:

What you are experiencing is a common thing on me being an SEO for a year. Blog Commenting needs time. But as what your situation is, Just be patient. It's not your problem at the first place. Just be patient in this task.

If you're comments are being rejected, it most likely means you were either spamming the blog, commenting unrelevant to the post, link dropping, using keyword instead of name, or any other multitude of factors.

Personally if I feel someone coming to my blogs and it is clear their objective is gaining links since my blogs are do follow I will reject them. Just today I rejected every comment posted since everyone left a link within the comment itself and one actually posted three links with a very generic comment. This of course is not the only reason I personally reject comments I will also do so if the commenter has a website considered to be in the "bad neighborhood" dWhite hit the big ones though.

I reject more comments than I except on my blog(s). Why? They are either spam, do not add anything to the discussion, link to an affiliate page or trashy website or the comment is dumb.

Just because there is a comment section on a blog does not mean just any ole comment will do. The blogger has every right to accept/reject any comment. It is their site after all.

Good luck with your dilemma and I am sure things will turn around for you.

[P.O.S.]

Well everyone here is correct. The only comments that are being delete are those spam comments or non related comments -- no other reason. You probably been using keywords as your name when posting comments... Some blogs do not allow that, you better read their comment guidelines before commenting. And if you're unsure if it's okay to use a keyword as your name, you can check the approved comment/s to see if somebody else has used a keyword. And if there's no comment preset, yet, better use your name -- it's still a backlink though not a keyword of yours is used, but hey it's better than nothing

Are you sure that your comments were being rejected? or they are simply under moderation?

I guess they have the right to accept or to reject comments no matter how good a comment is... they are the blog owners after all.

Well, as what I've been saying before, blog commenting is a type of link building strategy that can either make or break you. I mean, no matter how good you try, the results are still uncertain. You're spending valuable time and effort but sometimes, it can end up like that.

We, as authors/moderators have our own standards when it comes to the comments that we receive. So I guess that will give you an idea why your comments were being rejected.

Whats all your thought about this guys? Am i wrong?

Honestly I don't have the answer to you question simply because I have no idea on what your comments look like. Maybe you should give us some examples of your comments and from there, we can throw some remarks about it.

Well, if you are posting comments on blog posts that are old, it is most likely to be ignored or rejected because either the blog is no longer that active, the blog owner has too much comments to be moderating one that is on a old post or it is surely a spam comment... I don't think they are wasting your time if they would reject your comments, it is in fact a great sign that they moderate their blogs very well.

But how can you determine that a certain blog is an old blog?

Yes I got your point if one's blog comment has been rejected, that means, the blogger moderates his comments. But if know to your self that your comments are quality blog comments then definitely the Blog moderator is the problem. Isn't it?

There are dates in the blog posts, usually it is in the title area (either above, besides or below it) and most blogs have archives on their sidebar

if you know to yourself? I can always say that what I do on the daily basis are quality things, I can always say that what I do is right, but I'm just one person and my judgment (for this situation) is not enough to actually call it a quality comment.

It kind of surprises me to hear this,

then definitely the Blog moderator is the problem

specially from you who have a lot to say about blogging. we all have our preferences in our blogs and sites and the way we promote and advertise it, if other people have their own way in doing so, it doesn't mean that they are wrong or that they have problems... personally I almost always never approve a blog comment that has links in it, why? cause it is my preference for my blog and I would like to keep the community with in it, through the posts and comments, spam free and advertising free-cause once you have left a link that will not be useful or helpful even though it maybe related, you are in fact advertising the link...

how would you exactly define a quality comment anyways Dirky47?

Actually, we have different tactics in blog commenting. We also have different good points shared here. (That's nice!) If you are asking how would I define quality comments, I would rather say, Quality Comments are those comments that gives not just a thankful message in your blog posts but rather sharing some good points also in the certain blog niche. It can also be a good comment if it suggest or critics one's post for improvement.

Are you satisfied now? har har. :

IMO Comments on a blog post are good but they have to be relevant to the post. There are some Bloggers who allow you to put links in your comments provided you are linking to a relevant post or a service related to the post itself. Other than that is spam.

I setup my blog not to receive comments, so I don't have this problem anymore.

Why would you do that? Part of blogging is interaction with your readers.

And to contribute to the whole moderated comments discussion:
The blog owner (IMHO) has every right to monitor/edit/spam comments on their blog - especially when they post terms of use/commenting rules/notice.

e.g.
kyle-brady.com/commenting-rules/
dofollowsearchengine.com/blog/commenting-rules/
kazira.com/commenting-rules/

All I got it was spam so why bother?

[Jonathan_Hue]

You must be "drive by spamming" them. If you would've been a trusted old commentator over there, they would've loved your contribution.
