More About Blog:
Many blogs provide commentary or news on a focused subject; others function as more personal online diaries. A typical blog combines text, images, and links to other blogs, Web pages, and other media related to its topic.
The ability for readers to drop comments in an interactive format is an important part of many blogs. Most blogs are primarily textual, although some focus on art (photoblog), photographs (photoblog), sketches (sketchblog), videos (vlog), music (MP3 blog), and audio (podcasting).

One of the many mistakes to avoid when posting a comment is;
ReplyDeleteCommenting on the wrong post.
If you're reading a few posts in one go, make sure you post the right comments on the right posts!
Also, if you have a comment on an earlier post but you can't find it, don't try and post your comments on the latest post. Either search for the older post, or contact the blogger to ask if they can link you to the post you want to comment on.
It makes it so much easier to follow the discussion if the comments stay fairly on-topic.
