When I do read a post I try to remember to leave a comment because I know how much it means to me as a small blogger to receive a comment. This was a gentle kick in the pants post.

I blog weekly and for the rest of the week I like to read, reply and visit those who have visited me and commented, along with visiting those on my blog roll, commenting as much as I can. Gradually it feels as though you are catching up with friends over a cup of tea each week. I love it so much!

The day that my blog gets so big that I don't have the time to reply to a comment (like that will really happen...lol) is the day that I don't want to do it anymore.

Usually someone tells me, and I go fix it. That is frustrating.<br />Before I had a blog, I never left a comment. I don't know why, maybe I thought bloggers didn't care whether I commented or not. Boy, was I wrong. Now, if I take the time to read a post in its entirety I always try to leave a comment. I know how much work writing a post is, and I know how much I love comments myself.<br />It seems the bloggers I personally visit and vice versa are so kind and encouraging.

I blog because I love to share with others and be an encourager and supporter too.<br /><br />I have been very blessed with wonderful friends in blogland and I am so thankful. I also believe it is important to use good blog etiquette in visits. I always visit blogs back that visit me. I reply to some if needed, but I feel it better to over to the blog and visit instead showing I am interested in what they do as well. There are some bloggers who I visit faithfully and they never ever visited me. I still visit on occassion and maybe at some point they might be interested in what I share too. <br />I don't expect anything in return for visiting. <br />Recently I changed my blog settings to a noreply because of blog glitches and it made a difference in my comments arriving to my inbox instead of spam or the dashboard. Hard to believe that would make a difference but I am leaving it this way for now because it has helped so much.<br /><br />I no longer join link parties very often except on a now and then link up and our Embracing Cottage Style blog. This season I am extremely busy with my shop and blog posts to stay current. Many of the link ups I did link too never resulted in visits back. So I have to choose carefully because when I link up I visit.<br /><br />We have to pick and choose what works best for us when we blog. I don't think we should ever take too much personally because the community is very large and we can only do so much in the course of a day when being on the computer. <br />All in all I still believe kindness matters and am always inspired by every blog I visit in some way or another.<br />Thank you for sharing the topic.<br />Blessings to you.<br />Hugs<br /><br /><br />Celestina Mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10021633519525822335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4591712229039680133.post-57219064617056044862014-11-19T14:41:45.774-07:002014-11-19T14:41:45.774-07:00Great tips Roxy, I would have loved to have had th...Great tips Roxy, I would have loved to have had these tips when I first started blogging.

And-you are right about leaving nice comments....what was it my auntie said? If you don't have anything nice to say about someone come sit by me? No-No---that wasn't it!

I also don't have any type of "ID" or "account," so I usually have to comment as "anonymous." Some of my favorite blogs require that commenters sign in with a type of ID or account and don't offer the anonymous option, and also don't provide a contact email, so I've never been able to tell them how their particular post blessed me. As I don't really have a technical bent, I don't expect that I'll ever have a blog, but I do appreciate those who do and who take the time to write helpful, encouraging articles. Have a wonderful day serving our awesome God!

Kindness and be...Hi Roxy, This is a very good post. Kindness and being considerate of other bloggers is paramount. I agree with what you have said. In the past I have had experience with two bloggers where I commented on their blogs repeatedly, who NEVER once commented or emailed back. It made me upset, and I stopped reading their blogs. There have also been times when a blog I'm following changes focus, OR a blogger uses lots of photos that aren't their own (from the internet) and don't give credit - I stop reading these as well. I have a big hang-up where copyright violations (using someone else's material without permission, without crediting the source) are occurring and I just cannot support bloggers who do this. I do not, however, leave negative comments. It's better just to open the back door and walk away.Bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09792341123595520130noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4591712229039680133.post-67389234333886514762014-11-19T11:05:39.662-07:002014-11-19T11:05:39.662-07:00I agree with you Roxy.

I never wanted to get so big that I couldn't reply to every single email from a woman needing advice and I try to comment on most of the comments left on my blog. I comment on many others when I feel I have something to add or to say. I very much dislike the ones with a lot of advertisements. I usually stop visiting them because they get annoying and sometimes they show very inappropriate things. I know some women have a lot of little children or other things that keep them from responding to comments and this is when we need to give them grace! Thank you for commenting on my blog once in awhile. I appreciate it!Always Learninghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15764938913852283082noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4591712229039680133.post-63309195050839683242014-11-19T10:27:17.872-07:002014-11-19T10:27:17.872-07:00Well said Roxy!
