Hi there,

I don’t make my readers register either but you know what, I see spam all the time. While I will turn away from commenting on articles that requires a registration, I don’t blame them.

If you have a high PR website that you’ve work hard for, you don’t want people to spam it. Because of this, I make it a point to post only relevant comments that adds value to the site.

If you think registering is bad, try having your link stripped off and your value-added comment approved. Happened to me last week. His loss

You are so right. You have to make every part of website as easy for your visitors as possible. I recently switched from “add to cart” button and to “buy it now” buttons on one of my websites. This saves my users one click and allows them to get through the process faster. My conversion rate went up 40%. Now I try to make it easy for my users in every aspect of the site.

I agree that it is way too much work to create an account just to make a response. By the time I finish doing all that, I have to navigate back to my original page just to say how I feel. It’s frustrating and I usually won’t bother.

Phenomenal blog, numerous fascinating details. I believe seven of days ago, I have seen a similar blog. Does anybody know how to track future posts?

It’s really annoying if you must register and login to just post a comment. And then these unreadable capsha and email confirmation which quite often doesn’t arrive at all. After all this hassle you have no mood to post anything.

I think anyone should leave a comment and leave it up to the site owner to moderate.

I can’t stand sites that force you to login before commenting. If I see that, I’m out of there. I’m surprised that people do would think that’s a good idea. Seems silly to me.

Your site if proof that if you make it easy, everyone will want to contribute. This comment is number 69 and that is because it is easy to post. I doubt you get this level of participation if you required everyone to log in.

“How many times have your read a great blog post and have wanted to add a comment, only to get to the bottom of the page and find that you have to login?”

Many times I have posted comments (no spams or rude ones) on blogs to find out that they are never posted.

I agree. I hate it when I want to say something interesting and productive, but apparently, I’m NOT special enough to do it without a complicated login process first. Gah!!! Of course, it may increase the risk of spammers, but I’ve rarely seen these, and they can be edited out. You can also stop machines from entering in the comments by making people type in the number/letters in an image. The person above mentioned MuggleNet (a Harry Potter fansite). They do always get heaps of comments, but I think they would get even more if they stopped the login thing, because it’s not ideal for spammers anyway: you can’t give a website address and no_follow is automatically attached anyway.

A comment is worth if the user really put some facts and deep thoughts, therefore the user (IMHO) won’t be bothered to register (that will usuallyn only take 1 to 2 minutes) because they would like to post a good comment

I think people should turn on their register filter (User have to be registered to comment) if their blog have met a great deal of spam.

Those registering thinggy could decrease a great deal of spams

If i see a login page at comments section, i will close the site.I even donâ€™t read forums which requires registration.Fill the form,open new tab,go to your mail box (or running your mail software,doesnâ€™t matter),get the activation link or the code etc.Waste of time

I also really hate registering to leave comments. I am a software developer and interested in finding a solution to this problem through software.

For example, something like: A firefox plugin that provides a “register” button for online registration forms. The software would fill in the form with all your details, submit it and then read your email account, click the “confirm” link, and then log you in and take you to the post-a-comment page — All just by clicking once.

There are ways to get around the captchas. One guy cracks captchas and publishes the results on his blog: http://www.apathysketchpad.com/blog/2007/06/05/how-to-crack-captchas/

If the captcha cannot be cracked, then one click, and filling in a captcha is still much easier than doing the whole checking-your-email thing manually.

Does anyone have any ideas how we can go about building this program?

Iâ€™m with you, Dawud. If I have to login I just leave the site without commenting. I want it to be easy and inviting to comment, not s series of hoops.

DB,
I think it really depends on your focus. Performancing, for instance, has a purpose to their login. But many smaller bloggers don’t – they just require login anyhow.

usa,
I say keep it all open…until your business can afford to keep it private.
