Be friendly
Make all your comments friendly and polite. Blogging is about us all working together to help improve our writing. Nobody likes to receive unkind comments, so be friendly.

Look after personal info
Never give out personal information. Use just your first name, never your surname. Never give our your telephone number, address, or places you visit in posts or comments. Take particular care when leaving comments on other blogs because you don’t know who will be moderating these and they may not block your comment (with personal information in it) from being published.

Be generous with comments
You get out what you put in. If you leave positive comments on other people’s posts, you’ll find people will visit your blog and leave comments for you.

Be thoughtful when commenting
Make your comment worth reading, be positive interested and encouraging. No “Hi! Visit my blog! Bye” comments. Be thoughtful. 

Check before you send
Check through your post or comment. Many blog moderators don’t like text speak or slang so you may find your comment doesn’t get published if you use these.

Ask for help
Ask for help if you read or see something that makes you feel unhappy while you are blogging.
