commenting on others can be magic, and when you are the first to post on some post, you will be rewarded with upvotes on your comments as well, and one more important note is to leave an open ended question(one that can not be answered with a yes or a no) which will engage the person to chat with you. I hope this helps. So, now following and upvoted you.
wow thanks thats a great tip ill add the open ended question on my next blog post. and thank you your support is greatly appreciated
the more comments on your post, the more it will show up in the hot and trending area. I often give advise on my post, and will have to do one on this soon
