Commenting On Comments…How To Get Yours Seen

This post was originally seen on JennsBlahBlahBlog.  Although it was originally written there, the message couldn’t hold more true for us Ninja’s here.  We really do want to see what you have to say.  However, that isn’t always the case as you’ll learn in the article below.  Thanks for taking a moment to note on how to get us to pay more attention to you.  Why?  You matter and what you have to say matters too!!!  Ninjas rock and we want to know what you have to say.

How is your relationship with Google these days? Is it where you can’t live without it and simply would go mad if you couldn’t search it to your heart’s content filling your mind with knowledge for that Thursday night Trivia contest at the bar down the street you keep meaning to go to? Or rather do you despise it and prefer sounding like a cowboy or someone answering the phone when searching for information? Regardless of how you feel about our beloved Google, we at JennsBlahBlahBlog have a great relationship with Google. In fact, you’re able to read JennsBlahBlahBlog because of Google.

So why is this post suddenly appearing? Well, sometimes we see comments that we can’t approve. No, it’s not because someone said words they shouldn’t, but rather it’s because they didn’t say enough words. In order for your comments to be accepted they have to be a minimum of five words. Google thinks they are spam otherwise.

For example, if you’re making a comment on a post asking you what your favorite candy is, “Snickers” wouldn’t be approved, but “Snickers is my favorite candy.” would be. We’re not trying to create work for you, our dear readers, but rather we enjoy hearing from you and seeing what you have to say. Unfortunately that doesn’t always happen if you’re short on words.

Is my comment long enough? Think 5, words or more that is.

Next time we ask what you like most about summer, please enlighten us and tell us about the time you spend with family or the trip you take to visit Grandma every year. However, if all you say is “It’s hot.,” well, we like that too about summer, but we all might not get to see that.

Thanks for taking the time to read this. You all are so important to us and we really do love hearing from you.
