Why your Blog should be CommentLuv enabled

BY Ben Lang Dec. 05, 2009 219 Comments

I recently enabled CommentLuv on my blog, something that I should have done a long time ago. I’ve been concentrating on building a community, and one of the keys has been commenting. When you have 10, 15, 20 people commenting on each post it shows that you have a strong community built in to your blog. The question, though, is how to get 10, 15 or even 50 people commenting on each post?

That’s where CommentLuv comes in. One of the main incentives of commenting on other blogs is backlinks. If you leave an intelligent comment on any blog and your name is linked to your site, it could always contribute to more traffic. CommentLuv takes it one step further. This plugin will visit the site of the “comment author” while he types his comment and will retrieve a selection of his last blog posts, tweets or digg submissions, which he can choose from to include at the bottom of his comment when he clicks submit.

It’s a very powerful tool for building any blogger’s community. If you are interested in installing CommentLuv and seeing the benefits unfold before your very eyes, click here. If you want to try it out, leave a comment below.

I am still building my website, so I haven’t had a chance to start my own blog. I really like commentluv and will be using it for my blog once I get it up and running.

Definitely, get it up and running once your blog launches

Thanks for explaining. I always wondered what that comment luv thingy was and now I know I didn’t think it was that important but apparently it is. Good to know.

I think commentluv is one of the best plugin that has been coded for WordPress till date. It makes Link Building so much easier. And a blogger having it on his blog is a must since he himself too enjoys a lot of luv from other commentluv blogs so he must too also give back something to the community

Absolutely love CommentLuv. I think it is working great so far. Wish I had known about it years ago.

Congrats on having your blog CommentLuv enabled. Once you get the “thing” for it, you can also do some other cool stuff with it and share not only your blog links but just about anything else you can imagine. All you need is a little creativity. BTW, good luck on epiclaunch.com.

CommentLuv is an amazing plug-in because the blog owners want comments so, as an incentive, he offers commentluv to his commentors. This gives us the chance to get a anchor text link in return. Thanks!

http://ben-lang.com Ben Lang

Agreed!

Fully agreed. I wrote a post awhile back on all of the benefits of CommentLuv for everyone – the blog owner, reader, and commenter.

I like the name change here!

http://ben-lang.com Ben Lang

Cool, Ill check that out. Glad you like the name change

My blog is commentluv enabled but it disappeared when I installed Disqus. I guess the two are not compatible with each other yet.

http://epiclaunch.com Ben Lang

Nope, hopefully soon though.

I have been using commentLuv for most of my blogs to build backlinks its important to remember that people who offer a spot for your backlinks do this willingly and its not an accident so I always make sure that I give some content in payment. Also does anyone know of a better way of getting backlinks to your site. I have tried articles marketing and its fine but horribly boring and takes time to see results.
Thanks Kat

Each to their own opinion I guess. Yes, it may attract some spam but you can get great info back about your posts and positive feedback which can encourage you to write more posts.

I agree, why the sudden surge in nofollow blogs? Share the luv!

Since this post now has 161 comments on it I guess you could say it works.

http://epiclaunch.com Ben Lang

Agreed, that’s a great way to measure its success.

I think CL is probably one of the best plugins out there. It definitely helps to encourage a lot of comments on your blog. Why not reward the good comments right?

Hello,
I find the whole idea about CommentLuv just fine, but my problem is that I have been blogging on blogspot and it seems I can not install CL plugin as it is not supported yet. Anyone knows maybe more about it or is there any alternative?

Thnx

Suzzy
