This is a turn of marketing, it's a way of increasing traffic as well as a way of building links to your website therefore it could most likely be classified as a form of off page SEO as well. The trace behind commenting blogs is that you comment on other peoples' blog websites to increase traffic. You may be thinking, we have been doing that for ages but don't get any traffic from their websites. There are some tips and tricks behind and these are some of main tips.

Once you compile a list of these blogs, maybe 10 to 25 of them, visit them from time to time and post a comment only when you have something to contribute to the conversation. If you are a frequent commenter, you may also be featured on the home page if they have the top commenters plugin installed. Try to write at least 4 or 5 sentences.

Pick one username for every blog, possibly the username used to post on your own blog, forums or social media sites.

You can get free traffic to you website if you post comments regularly on blogs with a high Page Rank. You can do blog commenting which are related to the subject of your website. This can help in getting backlinks for your website.

Build Your Credibility: By participating and posting blog comments regularly, the readers of those blogs that you frequent would come to recognize you as a subject expert. Frequent appearances can do much good to your credibility. This also means that if you were to recommend a product on your website, they will be more ready to buy!

Try to be the first blogger to comment back, these are bound to get the most traffic.

Become a part of their community, speak your opinion, help others and make friends.

To get the most traffic from your blog commenting, look for blogs that get the most traffic. You can get some idea of a blog's popularity from their Alexa.com ranking or Technorati authority. However, even a blog that does not receive a lot of traffic can be a good place for you to comment if their visitors are part of your target market, so don't automatically exclude smaller or newer blogs.
