Readers of your blog would like to be able to air their views on it— they might agree or disagree with what you’ve expressed, or they might just want to offer words of appreciation. The Comments link grants the ability to manage readers’ comments. If you would like what others have to say about your thoughts to appear on your blog, you can choose to Show, otherwise, hide them. Under the “Who Can Comment?” title, you can decide whether all readers should be given the power to comment, or whether it should be restricted to registered members of the blog.
If you’d like to be informed whenever a comment is added to your blog, you can enter the e-mail ID you’d prefer the alerts to be sent to in the Comment Notification Address field. To avoid irresponsible comments or spam turning up on your blog, it is best to enable Comment Moderation. This way, every time a reader who is not a member of the blog adds a comment, you are informed by e-mail, and the comment doesn’t show up on the blog unless you choose so.
The popularity of your blog can be determined by the number of other sites linking to it: say someone with a blog of his own reads your blog and likes what you have said, and offers a link to your blog on his. This would be called a back-link. Enabling back-links will reveal the number of other sites that have linked to your post.
Word Verification is a feature that can prevent the use of software programs to enter comments, mostly spam, to your blog. Word Verification uses an image containing a series of digits or letters as a part of the commenting process. Since only human beings can decipher the content of the image, such commenting programs can be blocked. Enabling Word Verification is recommended.
