Hey Steve, I do a lot of blog commenting. I just posted a video on
how to find blogs for commenting. I guess it depends on passion in your niche. I am personally interested in the niches that I target,so I comment on blogs that I would want to follow anyway. the backlink is a bonus, not the focus of my efforts. Finding high quality blogs, and not the spam blogs is the hard part, but I show several ways to do that in my video. You might also check out this post on
10 ways to find blogs in your market.( leave me a comment while you are there and you get a good do follow backlink :) ). This is a guest post I recently did as part of a guest posting contest, so check it out.
I look at blog commenting as a minor part of my linking strategy. my main thing is to engage that community, and try to get to know the blog owner a little through the comments. then I can do what I really want, which is get a guest post on their blog with links in the actual body of the post.
