Thoughts...

I was thinking about the reason why there's not much comments in my blog..maybe because you're a little shy or maybe my posts are not too much interesting or for my bad english ...I really don't know. Sometimes I see blogs with dozens and dozens of comments and I think about the satisfaction and gratification of the author. Everytime I open my email and I find a comment I am so happy!
The question arose because I accidentally came across a web page that suggested the 10 rules for more comments on blogs.
One of the first rules is to ask people to comment, but I think it should be something natural and spontaneous. I understand that a lot of people will shy away from being the first to comment...I'm one of those! I have read that only 1 out of every 100 readers comment on your blog. Well, I would prefer not to bore you...I was just thinking out of loud!
Have a nice day girls!

those are really lovely interiors. I know what you're talking about with the comments. its like a little game, but I definatly think commenting is a reciprocal action and comes from high activity in the blogging community. But I love your blog and you'll be getting dozens of comments soon enough

Hello Federica:
Yes I often wonder why we do not comment on the blogs we visit.
I think it's a little shy and sometimes the rush of seeing the wonderful links you have.
But today I would like to say that your blog is so inspiring and I will visit you again.
Cata, lasciando commenti

Hi Frderica,
I just love your blog!!!! Such beautiful pictures! And I am one of those, who love to read the blogs but not often take the time (and effort) to place a comment.
I know.........I should, because I love comments also!

Hi Federica! I only discovered your blog a couple of days ago, and have been reading through the archives. I am a bit shy about commenting sometimes, if I don't have anything intelligent to say, but I'll definitely say hello from now on. :)

Hi Federica...maybe I am one of the people that don't comment...I am sorry if I am. I seem to write lots of cmments and have a few very lovely bloggers that comment back. I comment randomly and now I am thinking maybe I miss some friends..I will be more carefull. Marilyn xoxo

Federica said...

Wow, I've never received so many comments!Thanks girls!
I must say that the rule to ask for more comments it worked!
Now I want to thank each one of you!

Jojo said...

I always wonder why more readers don't leave comments. As you say, on some blogs it is surprising to see just how many comments are left on a daily basis. On the other hand out of the blue I got a card from my cousin who told me she loves reading my blog. Who knew she was reading it? Oh well!
