That's the first time I heard about sending thank you emails to commenters. Like any business, I am sure going the extra mile helps keep people coming back. Thanks for the tip! @Guillermo

This has proved to be quite effective, as most of them email back and I guess it has been a good contributor to my growing readers count. In the case of links, I use to go and thank for the link with a comment on the post. But I do not subscribe to every blog unless it belongs to my niche or wrotes about a particular subject I may find useful... I already have lots to read in my GReader!

Good etiquette includes 'Thank you' and going the extra mile to show your appreciation by reciprocating in some way. Those that do these little personal extras will always be rewarded for it long term. I agree Jason.

I use all of them apart from the 2nd, which im now going to implement into my new blog design when its complete. Another method which works really well is a plugin called LinkLuv. When somebody leaves a comment on my blog, the plugin automatically searches their website/blog for an rss feed. if it detects one, it will place a link to their latest blog post under their comment on my blog. This is not only a nice surprise and a thank you for them leaving the comment, but it also encourages them to leave future comments on my posts, because they know they will get some promotion.
