Well, I'm not surprised the points above from @davemccoy about interacting with comments. I've known you for few days now and I've seen how kind you are. You're a mentor to me.

Steemit is a social media and by social, then we have to socialize ourselves. To me, seeing one leave a comment that contribute to my post gives me the joy that even upvote can't. Comments gives room for interaction and a great relationship could start from there. I've learned that placing links in comments could be seen as spamming and even if the author follows your link and give you an upvote, he wouldn't do that when next he sees such act from you. I'm not experienced enough to add the deserved contribution to what's been already said, but I'm just in total support of this.

Let's steem up!
