Comments are a staple for any blog as they make a blog thrive by having good interaction between authors and visitors. They help to build & grow the community of users who share a common interest, and grow their knowledge through discussions.
Comments make a difference between a site and a blog.
But the problem is that bloggers struggle to cope with the huge amount of comments received, which include a large number of bad comments.
In order to be able to effectively handle comments, bloggers need to have a proper comment policy on their blogs, apart from blocking spam comments through plugins.
A comment policy is a set of rules that define how to comment on a blog.
This way visitors to the blog will have an idea of how to comment on the blog so that they give valuable suggestions, feedback in order to have their comments approved & appear on the blog, sometimes helping others to solve their problems.
