Hello Mark,
Blog commenting can be a bit tricky since (like you said) a lot of these sites do not want spamming. One of the best ways to go about this is to search for blogs that are related to your website. Then read the article, make a valid comment- something that you really think is valuable to the author and readers, and if possible (make sure that it is related to the post) create an anchor text within your comment.
Like for example, you own a dog training website. You may want to search blogs that talks about the same subject- dog training, dog collars, etc. Then once you have the list of possible blogs to comment on, read the articles in these blogs and make a comment based from those articles. You can insert an anchor text within your comment (if the comment box permits putting html or bbc codes), but make sure that this anchor text is still related to the post. Additionally, if it is too hard for you to relate the anchor within your comment, try to put your signature at the bottom of your comment. This can look like this:
- Mark, owner of <anchor text>
- Mark, blogger about <anchor text>
- Mark of <anchor text>
You can be creative as much as possible. Another tip: You can also fill out the name and link boxes with your website link and keyword, but make sure that the blog allows this by observing previous comments posted. If you see a comment published this way, then go ahead. Your comment will likely go published as well.
