How to increase interaction with your blog’s readers using WordPress plugins.

One of the best ways to increase the time people stay on your site, and to keep
them coming back, is to increase the interactivity of your blog. This gives
people a stake in your site, they will feel more connected. It can help you retain
readers, increase comments and reduce your bounce rate.
The following plugins will increase user interaction on your blog:
CommentLuv – This plugin is designed to increase your comments. It is a very
simple plugin and will add a button to your comments that will let your readers
add a link to their latest blog post. This is a great and simple way to encourage
people to comment on your website.
WP-PostRatings – This plugin adds a rating system to your blog posts. This is
useful in two ways. First, it shows you exactly what type of content your
readers enjoy. Secondly, it gives people a chance to give their input to your site,
in turn making them feel more invested. It is a win-win.

Comment Rating – Much like the above plugin, this
will allow readers to rate a certain aspect of your site.
In this case it allows them to rate comments. Highly
rated comments will be bumped, while lower rated
ones will be hidden. The benefits are the same as
the above plugin for the most part.

Taking steps to boost the
interaction between your
blog and your web visitors
will mean a lower bounce
rate, and more time on site.
