I have always had a comments section on my website since its early days. Originally, my website was written as a set of PHP pages. Back then, I had a PHP page that served as the comment form. So later when I switched to Common Lisp, I rewrote the comment form in it.
It's a single, self-contained server side program that fits in a single file [1]. It runs as a service [2] on the web server [2], serves the comment and subscriber forms, accepts the form submissions and writes them to text files on the web server.
