Is there any benefit when blog comment automatically posted on social media websites?

Sometimes when you publish a comment on a website / blog the same comment is published automatically on other websites (like Facebook). Is there any benefit for that or could be a SEO problem? Should I stay away??

  • Sukhpreet Kaur: I reckon you are referring to the the social plugin installed on the websites for comments so when you post comment on the website it goes to Facebook/ Google Plus automatically. ;

    No, it wouldn't harm SEO and is good as your comment is visible on social networks as well, along with the blog :)
  • George Njogu: Not bad for SEO but may be bad for your commenters... Check this article by techdirt https://www.techdirt.com/articles/20130123/03271121761/techcrunch-admits-that-using-facebook-comments-drove-away-most-their-commenters.shtml
