Correct me if I am wrong, but isn't that what we do through postloop and other paid to post sites? As long as adds are not clicked you may not get into conflict with adsense..in my opinion

Since adding my blog on Postloop and inviting comment was an expensive method, I tried to invite paid commentator by posting commenting offer here. I also believe that as long as there are no manipulated clicks, paid commenting is ok.

If you think that what you earn is greater than what you for getting comments on your blogs then there is no harm in doing so. I don't think Google or any other advertiser should have any objection unless the visitor is doing anything against the rules. I have posted thousands of paid comments directly and indirectly so far.

I agree with what you say in principle.. it could be expensive but you could get some decent, sensible comments on your blog when you pay more.. you could look at it as an investment.

I am not really aware about the tricks of the trade in promoting some traffic to comment your post, but I personally think that it is definitely unethical if not illegal! Thanks!

driving paid traffic is bad, however, it becomes a good marketing strategy if you drive traffic through facebook or adword campaigns. There are many forums using services like postloop and the forum wheel to drive comments.

But don't you think that this is a away of cheating your advertisers? May be I am wrong! This is just my curiosity! Thanks!

as long as you are not asking to click the ads this is not cheating. If you think paid blog commenting is cheating what do you think about paid to post forums. They are also running ads and they are paying people to comment.

We post on FC for money, we post on BMF for money and the list of sites is lone. Therefore, I do not think paid commenting is bad.

[Rational Mind]

Just like @Chameli I also believe that inviting paid commentators on your site is not a violation of any kind. Since there are a lot of paid to post forums and these forums run google ads incuding fc, I do not think paying for comments will get you into any kind of trouble.

I use forum coin exchange to drive comments on my blog posts. Is there anything wrong in this (I mean paying people to comment on my blog). Will I be penalized by my advertiser? I use Adsense.

It's not against the terms and conditions. You can continue this without worrying

I use adsense on my site, therefore, I am very careful about how I promote my site. When there were not many engagements on my site, I offered paid commenting.

I totally agree with your views chameli .. I don't see how it could be against the the way things work normally. It maybe a bit expensive to start with but as your site picks up traffic you may not have to depend on paid comments.

I don't think there's anything wrong with that provided you're not the one clicking on your ads or commenting on your own site . It the same with advertising on social media but yours is that you reward people a bit for their efforts.

That's what I though when I offered paid commenting through forum coin exchange. I only asked for comments. I never asked to click on ads.

How did this work for you? I am curious, did it help your traffic in any way or at least attract your organic users to post comments?

[Rational Mind]

Forums are driving activities by giving incentives to the posters, what's wrong in doing the same thin in a blog?

[jobless dude]

Giving incentives for doing activities are not illegal but those incentives should not be for doing adsense clicks.

[sofs]

True that it is a legit method to get comments and probably induce organic readers of your site to join the flow of commenters. However if this is good why do we not see so many blogs or websites not joining the race?

You can find blogs open for paid commenting on Postloop

Google prohibits the use of paid traffic to pages with adsense ads. Unless you have a way you are using to hide that, Google will at one time catch you and you won't be able to know why.

It is too complicated to place adsense ads to your blog or site wherein comments are paid. Adsense would wonder of the surge or increase of clicks per page due to the comments generated from the users.

Yes, adsense prohibits the use of paid traffic and related. By paying members to comment, you are paying for traffic to be sent to your site and which is a violation of the adsense terms.
