Have you ever posted any comment in someone else's post in this blog?

Don’t feel guilty or surprised if you didn’t. Jakob Nielsen’s latest study finds that 90% of online community users are lurkers (read or observe without contributing) with only 9% of users contributing ‘a little’ and 1% actively contributing. So, 1% of your blog’s users are actively engaging with your blog and the rest are at best occasional contributors.

But if you have a blog, here is the solution for your problems:

11 Ways to Increase Comment Numbers on Your Blog

2. Ask Questions
3. Be Open Ended
4. Interact with comments left
5. Set Boundaries
6. Be humble
7. Be gracious
8. Be controversial
9. ‘Reward’ Comments
10. Make it Easy to Comment
