Hi Amit,
To echo what Nathan has asked, if you could provide more information on what you mean by bad links, that would be helpful and we can provide a better answer.
In terms of generating more comments, it really comes down to two things:
1. Writing the kind of content which provokes questions and conversation - this comes down to your writing style and ability to write well. This isn't easy to get right straight away and can take time, but ultimately matters the most because if your content isn't engaging, people will be less likely to comment. You could also leave the post a bit open-ended and ask reader to contribute their opinions. If you look at some of Rand's whiteboard Fridays, such as this one, you'll see he leaves a comment first to provoke conversation.
2. Your audience and the size of the audience - many people will often read and enjoy a blog post, but may not feel compelled to comment. This is just how many people are, so to get more comments, you need to build up your audience and increase the number of people reading your content. There is no shortcut to this either, but comes down to building up good SEO, social followings and content.
I hope that helps!

We had a blog that has been inactive since 2011\. Now since the website is redesigned and we are working on link building, is it advisable to use the old blog content in the new blog?
The content of the old blog belongs to the company, hence no issues of copied content. The options I have are: 1. Use old content as is 2. Re-use old content in more interesting format i.e use info-graphics and the likes 3. Do not use any of the old content. Create new content

Blogs that Thank Their Sponsors in a Blog Post
I've noticed some popular bloggers who create a monthly blog post that thanks their sponsors and the links are followed. Do you think that Google lets this slide or are they stopping some or all of the links from these blogs from passing link juice?

Blog Commenting Question Off Page
While blog commenting, many people tend to use their 'anchor text' when asked to provide with their name. Hyperlinking anchor text inside the blog comment is perfectly understandable for me but using anchor text when asked to provide your name is something that I see as spam and something that totally confuses a normal user who reads the blog comment and sees a weird name in the name section. Search engines too must be perfectly aware of this and thus I am of the opinion that such anchor texts don't care much weightage in the eyes of search engine. However many of my fellow SEO colleagues tend to differ. They say you should use anchor text when asked to provide with a name. And I am totally against this form of promotion That's why I wish to ask the opinion of experts in SEO MOZ on this topic. Awaiting your feedbacks

Do links to blog.domainname.com help the www.domainname.com subdomain?
Hi, Do links to pages within the blog.domainname.com subdomain help the rankings of pages within the main www.domainname.com subdomain? (where "domainname" is the same of course). Thanks.
