Is blog commenting still working?

Hey guys,
I'd like to know if blog commenting still working?
I'm going to building backlinks from blog comments but need to know it's good way now or not.
Please advise.

With blog comments, you of course have the opportunity to make a number of visits from visitors on blog where you put your comments

Blog commenting is good for generating traffic if you comment on popular blogs that are frequently updated. For instance I've been following John Chow for a very long time so most of time when I leave a comment he replies to my comments so people who read the comments will wonder who I am then click on my site, optin and buy my products.

If you're linking to a squeeze page, like I do, make sure you offer top quality value comments (no fluff), something they can't disapprove because most top blogs don't allow people to link to a squeeze page.

For me, blog commenting is all about building relationships with other bloggers and leveraging their highly targeted traffic. Not for backlinks. I doubt blog comments are still good backlinks, even if they're dofollow.

So don't waste your time, energy and money on blog comments if you're doing it for backl

only for traffic, else blog commenting is a total waste and if not done correctly its gonna increase bounce rate.

Outside of the most popular sites out there, blog commenting for links is not only a waste of time, but it is also actually risky. You never know when someone is going to stop moderating their site and just start allowing all comments. If that happens, then suddenly what you thought was a useful link is now sharing space with porn, pharma, and gambling links.

Here is the other thing about blog commenting for links. No popular legitimate business is building links through blog comments. You don't see Best Buy, Microsoft, Apple, etc. dropping comments on sites. They could easily employ cheap armies to do it too.

Yes, still blog commenting is still working and effective as well. It is one of the effective technique in SEO.
