Light Speed Gaming is now just over a month old.
In that time I've had more than 10.000 visits, which as far as I can gather is actually a pretty decent amount for a brand new blog.
All these 10k visits have left me with less than 20 comments from readers. Probably the number is closer to 10 if you subtract my own comments and a few comments left by people I know.
What I really want to try to do is build a sense of community and user interaction.
I have tried encouraging people to leave comments, provide feedback on the content of my blog or tell me what they'd like to see next, but none of this has been met with more than 1-2 comments.
I can understand this, as those posts are also only really being viewed by very few people.
However, what is more frustrating is the few posts I have that have more than 1.000 views, but 0 comments.
I really wish that I could get a comment thread going on these popular posts, but I am simply stumped as to how to do this.
Maybe there is some secret ingredient to generating user comments that I am missing.
Maybe I am just way too impatient in expecting that I would have anyone interesting enough in my blog in under a month to actually prompt them to leave a comment.
Or maybe I have too high expectations of comment generation, and a normal value is actually 1 comment per 1.000 page views
I will continue to look into this and try to find the holy grail of user interaction!
