Is going back to read the replies necessary?

One of my favorite aspects about blogging  is reading people’s comments after a post. I like to reply back to those comments because they took the time to read my blog post and write a comment.


My question is: Do people go back to the blog to read the reply the author of the post writes about their comment?

If I were to venture a guess at most people’s answer to this question I would say that the answer is a blow me away ‘no.’ That’s because I usually don’t go back to see if the writer thought my comment was witty or made no sense at all. I just don’t have the time. 

There is so much writing, blog reading, social media hopping, and living to do that it’s too much to go back to every blog.  There are some ‘special’ blogs that I will always go back to after I’ve written a comment. I will also sometimes check if my comment has been replied when I’m back on that blog for another post, but even this is rare.

Do you go back to check?
