would you rather like people to comment on your content ( blog, website, etc ) or just normal visits? in one case more comments means more "trustabillity?!" but on the other hand... to get comments you need visits! What would you like ... 1000 visits and no comments or 500 visits and 10 comments ? id go for comments

i choose 500 visits and 10 comment. because i t make other visitor interest, why this blog has many comments. so, if they comment then we will comment to their blog, of course it just like backlink exchange.

I think the comments would be the best for me. I mean, you could have countless visits where people spend maybe just a little bit at your website having come across it in their web searches, but back track when they realize that it might not quite be what they are looking for. The fact is that the number of visits that are actually really visiting and looking around your website, the fraction is very small. If anyone makes a comment, it shows that they have actually read the comment. Whether the comments are positive or negative, at least there was some kind of connection made with the content on the website. These people may stick around and come back, other than those visitors who just pop in and have a quick look around. So the 500 visits and 10 comments would be the better one, even if those ten people are the only one's who really care about the website or blog.

I would also like the comments, because I can get feedback on the content I've posted. It's important for me to know the opinion of other people, so I could correct any mistakes, if present, or perhaps remove the disturbing content, if some people don't like materials I've posted. Feedback is important for me, so I would rather go for 500 views and 10 comments.

I'd choose 500 visits and 10 comments because it's hard to get even one comment especially in traffic exchanges where people don't care what your site is about. 1000 views don't mean anything if they are uninterested.

I'll choose comments, becouse if ten people comment your post / page then other people will know that it's good or bad article. However, if you have lot's of visits, then they will write comments (I guess). Yes, your article will be more trustabillity.

I would go for the comments too. It really means something when someone leaves a comment on my blog. It means they read and understood the post and it means that they cared about it enough to have an opinion and to leave that opinion for everyone to see.
