  3. Thanks. This is a great guide for me. However, I have a question. Is it wrong to comment like this to get people to view your site? :

    'Thanks. Visit my site at (enter site here). It elaborates more on this subject.'?

    Or is that alright?

  12. Hi ATP,
    It is usually viewed as spamming, if you encourage people to visit your site or if your site if off-topic. Leaving helpful and relevant comments may lead to people visiting your site. A trick I use is to use my site name, when I leave a comment on another blog.
