Great question, eh?
Heather at Spiritibee answers this question by giving 10 ways to improve your blog to get more traffic.
Thanks, Heather. I’m getting the traffic and subscriptions but no comments
I’d like to add Fruit of the Spirit Friday and Spiritual Sunday to the list of memes Heather suggests.
Come visit my Heart at Home homemaking blog. It has a new scrapbook look. See you there.

Getting comments is another animal entirely. It is one thing to quickly read a blog post, but quite another thing to stop and take precious time out of your day to formulate a thought, get it into words, type it out, and send it! Add logging in to someone’s blog host to that and you have at least 2 minutes down that you’ve lost. Some people are also less computer literate than others… so navigating blogs is enough work - commenting is jut another process that must be mastered. I would say that the main reason that comments don’t happen though, is just pure laziness. We THINK warm thoughts about the person, but we don’t ACT and SHARE them. I’m as guilty as the next person.

I didn’t even know you had this blog, Robin.
Thanks for tipping me off. Thanks for tipping me off on Feevy, too. I love it.
Oh… and I got the book! It is so HUGE! I wasn’t expecting such a large book.
All the more meaty! Can’t wait to dig in!
