Commenting on blogs articles
-
Hi All,
I have joined a new company and I am supposed to post relevant comments to blog articles. In the comment I want to provide them the source like

example
which of the above 3 will give me the maximum benefit with the backlinking.

You may also want to read the Beginner's Guide to SEO, especially the section on building links at http://moz.com/beginners-guide-to-seo/growing-popularity-and-links.
-
If you're going to spam then use www.example.com because if that anchor text gets suppressed no one is typing that in anyway to find you.
-
And many have community managers that will ban people for comments with links if that appears to be the main reason for commenting on a post. I ban several each day here at Moz.
-
Its also important to note that practically all blogging platforms NoFollow the links in the comments.
-
I think the first two will give you a link back as the third one isn't a url unless you use it as anchor text.
By the way, I wouldn't build links by commenting on blog posts because it may look like spam, I would rather focus on earning links with your content.

Does Google crawler understand & flag a blog post has text asserting sponsorship with dofollow outbound link?
I kind of know the answer, but just wanted to get some feedback from others. For the sake of argument, assume there are no other issues with the linking blog, such as: too many ads, thin content, etc. Question: If you make a payment for a blog post with a dofollow link, and in the blog post there is something to the effect of: "this post has been sponsored by..." Will Google crawlers detect that and flag that as an unnatural link?

No-Follow Comments from 2010
An old SEO consultant left a lot of comments with exact anchor text links on non relevant blogs back in 2010. At this point most of them are no-follow, but I'm obviously still concerned they are damaging. Is the no-follow enough? Or should I still work to remove them? Is the time worth the effort? Thanks,

Difference between Syndication, Autoblogging, and Article Marketing
Rands slide deck titled 10 Steps to Effective SEO & Rankings from InfusionCon2011 on slide 82 recommends content syndication as a method for building traffic and links. How is this any different than article marketing? He gave an example of this using a screenshot of this search result for "headsmacking tip discussion." All of those sites that have republished SEOmoz's content are essentially autoblogs that post ONLY content generated by other people for the purpose of generating ad clicks from their organic traffic. We know that Google has clearly taken a position against these types of sites that offer no value. We hear Matt Cutts say to stay away from article marketing because you're just creating lots of duplicate content. Seems to me that "syndication" is just another form of article marketing that spreads duplicate content throughout the web. Can someone help me understand the difference? By the way, the most interesting one I saw in those results was the syndicated article on businessweek.com!.
