This is the fourth in my “Your Thoughts” series where I ask you to be the post author by adding your comments to finish a sentence.
I had no idea. Really, I didn’t. I didn’t realize how important blog comments were. At least, not until I started this blog. After each post I find myself hitting the refresh button, eagerly awaiting that first comment. It’s silly, I know, but I’ve also come to realize that I’m not a freak (most days). Many bloggers feel the same way. Bloggers love comments! We actually WANT you to be a part of the conversation. And yet, I can give you a list of reasons why I don’t add comments:
- I don’t believe I can add to the conversation.
- My thoughts have already been shared by others.
- I’m not convinced my comments really matter.
- I don’t want to look like a fool.
- I can’t think of anything to say.
- I don’t have time . . . the list goes on.
Guilty as charged! Realizing the error of my ways, I’ve decided to present you with a challenge. It’s one that I will be attempting myself:
Add a comment to at least one blog post per day.
If one per day is too much, try one per week. By all means, please remember to be respectful (yes, you can respectfully disagree with someone). Are you up for the challenge? Why not start now? Add your comment below to finish this sentence:
I do/don’t comment on blog posts because . . .
