Encourage Conversations On Your Blog With Comments Subscriptions
Most bloggers agree that is more fun to write when you get comments and reactions to
what they have to say. Because of this, there are lots of different reaction possibilities on most blogs such as; thumbs up, share on Facebook or Twitter, give points to the post or write a regular comment.
While comments themselves are interesting and encouraging, discussions in the comments section between several people are even better. But it is worth remembering that most people today are living with a tight schedule, therefore one particular feature on you blog, might make things easier for them to get into such discussions. Namely, a feed that send you the comments on the blog post via RSS, or even better, the opportunity to receive the feed via email.
Some comments applications, such as disqus gives everyone the opportunity to subscribe to the blog comments for a particular blog via email or rss, whether they are users or not. Those who are in fact users of Disqus can also choose to automatically subscribe to comments from the posts that they comment on.
So whether you have your own domain or use wordpress or blogspot, etc. Make sure to find a application that allows for this functionality. If you have trouble finding one for your blog, you can always send a question here, and hopefully I can help you find one.
