For bloggers who aren’t familiar with “linked comment signatures”

Linked comment signatures are just website links placed by the commentators so that interested readers can click on them to see where the links bring them. In my blog, I have linked signatures by commentators. Some are served as adverts, while some might be to highlight similar posts/blogs of related contents. I only allow those links that I deem NOT INAPPROPRIATE after personally visiting those links so that my readers are not exposed to any harm/inappropriate contents. However, it will be difficult to really ascertain that those links will still maintain the status quo content after some time (especially considering that it’s impractical for me to visit those sites intermittently). The best solution would be for Blogger.com to disable such feature in the comment/feedback field. Having none of the block, then readers have use use self-discretion to visit such links.

For avid bloggers, you can read more about linked signature here, “Hyperlink signature for the A-Z Blogging Challenge” by AtoZchallenge. There is a tip of how to hyperlink your signature.

Reason for hyperlink signature

  • Hope the person whom you gave feedback will visit your site
  • Ease for other readers to visit your site
  • Advert

Just to share.
