Getting users to comment on your blog posts can be difficult. Sometimes people have the desire to add substance to your blog content, but don’t want to be the first commenter.
Digital publishers know by now that comments are important. They are viewed by Google as a sign of approval and engagement, and are social signals worth attention.
Through creating great content and calling your users to respond, comments on blog posts are made. Although your response is important in this scenario, what else are you doing in acknowledgement of comments?

The Thank Me Later plug-in for WordPress automatically sends an email to users once they comment on your blog. The email thanks the user for commenting and reminds them to check back to the blog for updates to the conversation.
This plug-in not only thanks your commenter, but it persuades them to continually engage with the article. This can lead to more comments and deeper conversations taking place on your blog.
If you are already using Thank Me Later, I’d love to hear your thoughts on it. And if you have any additional recommendations for email plug-ins, please share them with the community.
