How can you get more comments on hubs?
I am trying my best to write quality hubs, I try writing on different subjects to attract a bigger audience, I read other people's hubs and leave comments and yet I barely get a few comments on my hubs. What am I doing wrong? What else do I need to do?
Hello Florypaula, the first thing you need to do is have patience. You certainly cannot get lots of traffic on your hubs within days, and if you're an active follower and commentator then I am sure you'll start getting comments real soon. Just keep up the hard work as it always pays back.
Thank you Syeda. I guess hard work is always the way to get recognition. It is a little difficult to be patient when you see many of the people you constantly visit don't return the favor. Maybe in time things will change.
Have a nice day.
It looks like you may have answered your own question with your hub on Raising Teenagers. I see you got four comments on that, in 2 days time, and you graciously responded to each comment. It seems that you wrote something that touched people, and was practical for them, You could be on your way to a high number of comments on that hub. Keep on keeping on!
Thank you Danny. Maybe I am a bit impatient, but I see other hubs get a lot of comments daily and I am thinking that maybe this is the normal rate. But maybe the rate at which my hubs get comment is the normal rate. I am still quite new at this.
Try writing on hubs that people likes such as reading at other hubs. If you notice that hub has a lot of comments that is the hub that people are looking for.
People may also like to read hubs with a unique title or something that is different from our everyday lives, they will be keen to know what's there in the hub, even though then won't be needing it.
You are both right. Maybe I should try to see what works for me, try different style of title and see what works best. I am happy I've though of asking this question because I am receiving a lot of ideas.
Thank you both for taking the time to comment

It is important to actually read the hub you are commenting on. It seems that every time I publish a hub I get at least one comment saying something that proves they didn't read the hub. In the future I will be deleting these comments even though they are well intentioned. It will better for your...

As writers, we have received our share of dissenting comments on our hubs which is well and good. However, there are comments which are completely rude and disrespectful. Such comments include personal attacks on the hub author. While disagreement is fine and acceptable, being...

How do you provide comments on hubs? Do you write them immediately or come back after thinking?When I comment on hubs, I typically visit at least twice. The first time when I find it and decide I want to read it, and the second time when I leave a comment. I usually set aside a day to read many...

What does it mean when your comment does not post immediately on a hub but you can see that others do? Is it related to the "accept or deny" buttons in the comment section on our page? Seems there's another level of regulation I'm missing because it doesn't happen every time. Some...

Do you ever leave comments on hubs that you have not read in full?Once in a while I see comments on hubs that suggest that the writer did not take time or care to engage the writer by fully reading the hub before commenting. A lot of times a hub makes great reading but the sheer content of the hub...
