For today’s Sunday Poser, Sadje wants to know…
How many times do you respond to comments on your blog? How many tiers of comments do you think are appropriate?
I try to respond to every comment by, at least, tapping the Like button to let the blogger know that I received his or her comment and I appreciated it. If the blogger’s comment says something complimentary about my post, I’ll reply with a “thank you” comment. And if someone poses a question in their comment or responds provocatively in such a way that warrants a response, I’ll reply to that, with a comment.
As to how many tiers of comments I think are appropriate, it varies, but I rarely go more than four or five tiers. If I feel more needs to be said, I will occasionally put my responses in a post and then continue the dialogue (or diatribe) in that post.
