It will make your blog being hypocrite for having fake comments. I'd rather ask my friend to make comments on my blog. hehehe....

Funny for me to say because I am a frequent commentor on some blogs that I like. However, Steve Pavlina, one of the really rich bloggers turned off his comments ages ago, and in fact has stated that leaving comments on as long as he did was his biggest blogging mistake. I just recently turned them of on one of my niche blogs and note all page view and ad-rev numbers are up ... and I don't have to hand massage what Akismet misses. The funny thing is the Web has a short memory. Mnay currently in the blogging game are too young to remember back when dial-up community BBS's (Bulletin Board Systems) were 'what there was", before the 'Net was even open to the public. Many BBS's greatly resembled blogs of today and just like today they were a series of posts or entries followed by a string of asynchronous comments, some on topic, some wildly off-base. I don't know enough to advise anyone, but there are times I seriously question the wisdom of blog comments to begin with ....

Heck, if someone wants to pay me I'll comment on their blogs. With all the spammers, having had blogs for five minutes and begging for link exchanges, the desperation grows. This is the logical next step for all those who want to sit home and make money from their blogs without having anything worth selling. Come to think of it I may just have to go start my blog commenting agency now. No, nor would I usually read blogs with add plastered all over them but some people will.
