Blogger Comment Notification via Email



I blog somewhat frequently and have not been very much in the habit of checking for comments on my posts (especially older posts). Often, when I remember to check my comments, I find that there were comments I wish I would have responded to earlier, but hadn't noticed. If you, like me, have had the frustration of blogging regularly and not always checking for comments on old posts, there is a solution.








If you go into your blogger settings on the bottom left side of your home page, then go to the "mobile and email" section, there is a way to set up notification. Then in the box where it says "Comment Notification Email," simply type your email address and you will receive notifications when you get comments on your posts.

    Thank you for posting this!! Other places on the internet direct you to settings>comments. I kept looking for an "email notification" spot and couldn't find one. UGH. You've just saved me lots of headache, thanks!!

    Thanks. What Christina said! Blogger is not intuitive at all and all the posts on fixing it are wrong or old.

    Thank you. I was also looking for this under the comments settings. What is also confusing is how to get to the settings pages as shown in your first image. It's not through the gear at the top right but through the little triangle pull down menu that has the tooltip "more options" at the right of the name of the blog.

    Hmm... seems I'm the only one he having issues with this. Have you seen where your e-mail was listed but you don't receive any notifications? I'm thinking it may have something to do with turning off G+ notifications since Google/Blogger are now integrated. If you have any tips that would be outstanding!

    Hi and thanks. I have done this.
    My other questions is can I get an email notification if I you reply to this?
    In the past I have replied to a post, and they have responded with a question.
    I don't see it unless I happen to go back and check their post and comments.
    I'll keep looking but if anyone knows I'd appreciate you letting me know.
    Cheers.
