Comments on Blog Posts
Readers can now comment on your blog posts, reply to each other and react, right on the post. You review and answer every comment from a new Comments tab in Blogs.
Turn readers into a community. Answer questions where they're asked. Stay in control of what goes live.
🚀 What's new

Write comments and reply to other readers
Add emoji and attach an image
Like or dislike any comment
Follow threaded conversations, with Load more comments for long discussions
Easy Sign-In for Readers
Returning readers sign in with their email and a one-time code, with no password needed
New readers create an account in the same window, without leaving the post
Moderator Badge
Replies from your team carry a Moderator badge, so readers can always tell your answers apart from other comments.
