Can Blog Commenting still work in 2018?

Yes it works. Make sure the comment is genuine and is about the particular blog post
 
If you want to stay with your site long term. I'll suggest you make the good informative articles and try to get guest post backlinks, social media backlinks, relate site backlinks. You can't stay long-term with blog comments.
 
You can stay long with HIGH quality blog comments (the type that have to get approved, on high authority sites). Keep in mid though that your ability to rank (with whatever kind of link) also may also depend on the balance of your link sources, compared to your competitors. If the rival sites on page 1-2 of Google get 10% of their links from blog comments, but you get 25% of your links from there, Google may interpret those links as excessive (even if of good quality) and regard it as your site gaming the search endine.
 
I have seen that in some niche, sites were ranking well with blog comments.so, blog comments do work.
 
Yes, they do work. Don't know about spammy out of context comments on websites with huge OBL, but I know about quality comments that BRING traffic as well. I have an ecom website ranking with nothing but a handful of HQ blog comments. Please note that these comments bring ref traffic as well.

Also another thing, few years ago, when I was doing pure BH SEO, there were tons of guys on BHW saying that spammy comments do not work, and I managed to rank for some low competition keywords (50-100$ per month keywords) with nothing but pure spam comments on websites with HUGE OBL. So take everything with a grain of salt, and test it out yourself.
 
Great, I ask a serious question, and a bunch of newbies who joined here a few months ago start answering.

You need to learn the basics dude, with that attitude you're asking for a penalty from G.

If someone is new to BHW that does not mean they're new to SEO. This screenshot is from a 4 month old website.
 
I would stay away from it, even the low OBL pages will get spammed to death after time passes. There are very few paid blogs, where they filter and keep only solid comments with an anchor. If you can find those kinds of blogs, go ahead or else, STAY AWAY!

Agreed. I never claimed you're new to SEO, but your advocation of spam blog comments isn't something I'm interested in (as I explained in my opening post).
 
Work on your attitude dude. Anyhows, blog comments do work. You have to balance them with guest posts and social media links. I had a site ranked high with blog comments and social media links.(Low comp KW)
 
Why post a question then bite people's heads off when they answer it?

Why bother asking a question in the first place if you only want to hear what you want to hear, and throw a little hissy fit when someone says something you don't want to hear.

All seems a little fucking pointless to me.
 
Work on your attitude dude.

You mean you want me to accept answers advocating adult & pharma spam comments? No thanks.

Thanks.

The premise of this statement of yours is flawed. Please show me one example where I've criticised anyone for answering my question? My question was do legit comments work?

All seems a little fucking pointless to me.
I've never used any foul language in this thread. Lol @ talking about hissy fits...

I really don't know why I'm fucking bothering, but here goes.

You Asked -

I'm not talking about blog comments on sites with huge amounts of spammy OBLs.

I'm talking about making genuine comments on serious sites in your own niche, direct to your money site. Can they have a positive effect as Tier 1?

And got a response to your question. The response was yes the do still work, even spammy ones still work.

Yes, they work! Even spammy ones work if sent to Tier 1 or later.

Here you are spitting your dummy out.

Lol...

Can someone who's been a member for a while and who knows what they're talking about please let me know their opinion.

Here again someone responds with a very valid point. Yes they still work, but it is best to stay on topic (rather than write "Great blog mate thanks very much)

Yeah absolutely it will work ....especially if you don't comment out of the context of the blog post...

Here again you spit your dummy out like a little girl throwing a hissy fit

And what do you know! I ask for more experienced members here to post, and immediately I get a person who joined only today, and this is his first post!

Your attitude towards people who are trying to help you is quite frankly fucking disgusting. I see you will go far here.
 
Will read the above later; For now, my input is that it can work if relevant content, high authority, and low OBL.

Have not done much though.

I really don't know why I'm fucking bothering,

Neither do I.

but here goes

The examples you just posted mainly prove my point - they're people who are advocating spam, which everyone knows is very likely to kill your site in the long term - so I'd prefer to stay away from these peoples' advice. And even if they might make other valid points, I'd rather not trust them due to them making such a blunder, (unless I saw something really convincing). If you don't agree with my stance, I don't have a problem with that. Likewise, I might not agree with you, but you'll never find me cursing and swearing just because someone disagrees with me.

Btw, the part where I said, "And what do you know! I ask for more experienced members here to post, and immediately I get a person who joined only today, and this is his first post!" - was the only part where I agree I went overboard. Note: ReusGomez - I apologise for saying that. However please also note I raised your join date to highlight the funny irony (as in - I requested more experienced members of this forum to give their opinion, and but the next reply is from someone who joined literally minutes ago). It probably didn't come out right. (And you might very well be someone who knows his stuff).

Your attitude towards people who are trying to help you is quite frankly fucking disgusting.

More foul mouthed nonsense. Clearly you didn't see (or chose to ignore) my gratitude to those people who have given their thoughts (who don't advocate spam).

I see you will go far here.

no your not:)

I'm talking about making genuine comments on serious sites in your own niche, direct to your money site. Can they have a positive effect as Tier 1?
They don't work for me. If i use them its to dilute anchors and thats it. And as far as niche relevant ones, you will more than likely run out of sites to comment on in just a couple weeks:)
 
Give me a foul mouth any day over a foul attitude.

Lol, I've completely batted away the main points you've raised against me and this is your reply? How about some humbleness in accepting my explanation?

Why did you ignore where I said, "Clearly you didn't see (or chose to ignore) my gratitude to those people who have given their thoughts (who don't advocate spam)." At least have the integrity to admit I have been grateful to those people. Or are you gonna stick by your false claim that my attitude here is still "fucking disgusting"?

Read my post again, I said foul mouthed nonsense, not just foul mouth. You'd be much better off if you only had a foul mouth. Chuck in some nonsense into the mix and you've got a deadly combo. In addition, the former point (foul mouth) necessitates the latter (foul attitude), i.e. you're the one with the foul attitude. Learn some manners.
