Comment Rules and Guidelines

January 17th, 2009
Goto comments Leave a comment

I recommend any blog and especially any DoFollow blog to clearly define their rules and expectations for acceptable comments.  Failure to set rules leaves you partially to blame when spam starts appearing on your blog.  This is starting here so it’s time to set expectations.

My Rules:

  1. Comments must be of value and add to the current post.
  2. Do not add links within the comment.  You already get a link from your name – Don’t get greedy.
  3. No misspelled words or 3rd grade English.  I appreciate that English is not everyone’s first language but sentence fragments without punctuation is more likely spam.
  4. Do not post your dofollow blog for submission within a comment.  Submit them here.

So this is my quick short list which will change as needed.  I also suggest showing your rules clearly.  For example, I added these rules to appear directly the new comment section.
