The easiest always goes unnoticed as many bloggers think to generate traffic is rocket science. If it’s not science, it’s some mathematical equation they blame the ‘big daddy’ for coming up with it. Well, the easiest way to generate blog traffic is through comments.

When was the last time you ever left a comment on a person’s blog? When did you last comment on a person’s blog not in your RSS feed or Blogroll?
