Getting good comments out of people is a hard job.

Well well, here we are in a beautiful ecosystem of course which is a hive of bustling activities, learning and all forms of transactions obviously.

One thing I’ve come to notice is that getting good comments out of people is a hard job. Basically that’s if you have noticed and there could be a couple of reasons to that effect.

Primarily because commenting is a Herculean task that most users may not want to get involved in. Have you considered the Myriads of blogs and posts that pour in every minute in different communities and even on personal blogs? How many of those posts have people engaging with them?

There are some very quality, beautiful and educating posts out there but are void of engagements, why?

The answer is very simple. It’s an easy task to just breeze in and make a post and breeze out. It would take far more and more time to engage with people and it’s something that doesn’t come naturally.

It would take a determination and conscious effort on the part of any soul that wants to engage with others to do that.

The time it takes for you to read through a single post, assimilate what the reader is passing across especially when you are in unfamiliar terrains and then reproducing the right engagement is demanding talk more of doing that for multiple post.

I am an advocate for good commenting and engagement and I know the amount of effort and time it takes me to do that. Most individuals do not want to pass through those uncharted paths because of the discipline and time required.

Maybe some have tried to and were met with silence because I have also noticed that there are some persons whom I try to engage with on their posts and they don’t even as much as give you a smidgen flicker of look in your direction.

This is a call to appreciate the people who try to make hive the social platform it’s built to be. When you have people spend time and energy to engage with you, the best you can do is to appreciate them by acknowledging their presence.

You do not know how encouraging engagement can be to newbies. For example I find it very encouraging that some high and reputable people on the platform like @meno, @selfhelp4trolls, @mcsamm, @monkmasters, @revenmusic1, @ifarmgirl to mention but a few
can actually engage with my content. I felt so blessed this morning waking up to not just their engagement but also their support.

Am sure they are very busy people but finding time to engage and support others despite being high up there is a great legacy. Getting good comments out of people is a hard job, if you find one good commenter, encourage them with your reciprocal engagement no matter how small. It can make all the difference to their blogging experience.
