I've read a lot about the long tail, but I am not sure whether it's not exaggerated. I think my popular posts get more pageviews than the rest of my posts accumulated.

The point about keeping comments open is a good one. If you've got a decent spam protection setup then the extra spam this will generate is easily dealt with, whilst you get the benefits of the extra genuine comments coming in.

Individual posts might only get 20 visitors a day but if you've written 100 posts suddenly you're getting 2000 visitors per day.

That's my top tip. Too many sites automatically close comments after a few months - usually to prevent spam. Keeping comments open allows an older blog post to spring back to life months - or years - after it was first published. Terence Keep comments open. That’s my top tip.

At the beginning when information about an item is not flourishing, it is easy to locate useful articles or posts with short tail keyword search. But as the competition for keyword becomes fierce, the folk would turn to long tail keyword search in an attempt to reach the information they need. So it is what makes a blog outstanding by elaborating long tail keywords. Most of the recent traffic to my blog is based on long tail. That could prove a point. Thanks for sharing the truth. Indeed.
