How to get comments in my blog?

You must have heard these questions from people on the internet

How to get comments in my blog?

How to make people visit my blog?

How to get traffic to my blog?

Here are a few reasons I was thinking about

• I do not get a lot of visitors
• Even visitors who come do not comment (cannot really blame them)
• Even regular readers who come to my blog, stopped coming when I took a break!

Blogging was intended to be a "journal". Where you write to yourself. Why on earth would you

want others to read stuff you write for yourself? This is the basic paradox of blogging. You

write for yourself and expect others to read it.

Why is zeoling soooo much better than blogging?

• I am no longer confused about who I am writing to.
  When I zeole, I am always thinking about who I am writing to. I never write to myself and
  and show it to others.
• Lots of people read my zeoles, because I always use the right channel and reach the right
  readers
• I get lots of comments, just it reaches the right audience

If you ever find someone cribbing about not getting comments in their blog, ask them to shove it

and try zeoling ;-)

Blogging: Why?

Why have you stopped blogging?

My blog is 5 whole years old, and most of people who started blogging with me, have fallen silent. The ones that are still writing, my God, are you inspired to write!. But where is everyone else? I hear you saying that you got busy or some such, but I guess the idea of blogging is no longer sexy. Right now, the buzz is about twitter. Btw Mr. Twitter: you are cool. I like to tweet, but I want 1400 characters. 140 wont do.

Anyway, back to blogging, I had stuff to talk about in my blog. For 4 good years. Actually, the stuff I wanted to talk about, kept changing. Initially I was this young fellow who thought swearing was cool. Trust me, it is not. It so is not. I guess I learned my way out of it, by cracking stupid jokes. I donno man, for some reason girls like my blog. It is not a girly blog or anything and if it was anything it was MCPish. But girls loved it. I know! Girls are stupid, aren't they? ;)

And now I only write for the elite and the elderly. I am irregular and write stuff that only I seem to think is relevant. I am not getting any readers, much less comments. I know, I have even started cribbing.

I am lost now. Blogging no longer excites me as the way it used to. I seem to have lost the purpose of blogging. But wait, was there a ever a purpose to blogging?
