Deleting comments that say ‘nice post’ or ‘I agree’

zippingmmouthFollowing on from a post I made over at the Birds on The Blog site, on whether or not to delete negative or argumentative comments from your blogs, I’ve had quite a few emails from people saying that it’s not the negative comments that bother them, it’s the ones that say nothing.

You know the ones:

“Nice blog”

“I agree”

“You’re right”

On the face of it they’re innocuous comments, don’t really upset the apple cart, and show that people are reading your blog (allegedly, although not always).

My blog has no comments – help!

We’re told that blogging is great for our business, helps build traffic to our website, enhances SEO, and practically does everything except wake us up in the morning with a cup of coffee. And a lot of the hype surrounding ‘having a blog’ is true:

  • It *IS* good for business – blogging about the things you are an expert in develops credibility and helps with branding.
  • It *CAN* bring more traffic to a website – it allows you to share information on places such as Facebook and Twtter, that bring in new visitors, and gives good reasons for old visitors to return.
