Comment Policy

I’m an Internet marketer and a blogger, so I understand the importance of building links for SEO and the power of doing this through blog comments. I also understand the value of getting “no follow” links in order to receive some PageRank juice.

If you’re kind of enough to add a comment to my blog, it adds to the conversation and helps my blog rise. I thank you for that and I feel that your actions deserve a reward – so I will allow some of my PageRank to flow to your site.

After making three (3) comments, my blog commentators have the ability to create two (2) “Do Follow” links with each comment they make here on Mikaylasway.com. [Please note: I reserve the right to change this number in the future.]

In an effort to maintain some sense of order and so that things don’t get crazy with spammy comments or unsavory website links, I’ve created the comment policy that you’re reading now.

I invite all comments but I ask that you please adhere to the following rules:

1. Hate, porn, gambling, or websites promoting any illegal activity may not be linked to.

2. Your comments must be relevant to the conversion. I don’t care if your comments are one line or 1,000 lines. As long as your comment is relevant to the conversation the length doesn’t matter to me.

3. As much as I appreciate the positive feedback, I will deny your comment if it is similar to one of the following:

- Nice site!
- I agree.
- Thanks for this info.
- I love your site!

Let’s face it, most of these types of comments are spam and they don’t really contribute to the conversation.

4. Website or blog URL’s in the website field only please. That means no affiliate links.

5. You will automatically get one free link to your name (or keyword) and you’ll get another deep link to your latest blog post (if you have one) thanks to the nifty CommentLuv plugin. So, please do not add another link in your comment unless it truly adds to the conversation.

6. I use the Keyword Luv plugin too. Therefore, comments with JUST a keyword instead of a name and keywords (see below) WILL be marked as spam. So, if you prefer that your URL be linked to a specific keyword, format the name field as follows:

YourName@Your Keyword

7. I reserve the right to delete any and all URL’s you link to and/or comments if I find it inappropriate or unacceptable.

That’s it! Go ahead – leave some comments and build some backlinks… but please take the time to contribute to the conversation. And don’t forget to subscribe to the comments so that you can get an email update on the conversation.
