Why CommentLuv Will Expand Your Link Building Efforts

March 30th, 2008 | 145 Comments

The following is a guest post from Nick Cristey; owner of Hannah Montana Zone – a Miley Cyrus fansite.

Amongst other ways of one way link building such as social bookmarking (preferably on “dofollow” sites) and article writing, blog comment posting is a popular one. If you don’t know that commenting on people’s blogs who do not use “nofollow” increases your backlinks, then start finding blogs that you can comment on as part of your link building campaigns (starting with Link Building Bible!)

There’s a Wordpress Plug-in that blog owners can place on their blog that searches a commenter’s RSS feed and posts the title of the most recent feed at the bottom of a blog post with a link to that post. This plug-in is called CommentLuv. Link Building Bible has just added it to their blog. It is a fantastic way for a blog owner to encourage comments on their blog.

The problem here is how to find relevant blogs on which to comment on – and of course Google comes to our aid!

Simply go to Google and type this in, replacing “Your Keyword” with, well, your keyword:

Your Keyword “Enable CommentLuv which will try and get your last blog post, please be patient while it finds it for you”

At the moment of writing this, there are 555,000 blogs that contain that bit of text, which is 555,000 blogs you can leave your comment on. By simply adding your keyword at the beginning of the search term, you can reduce this larger number to blogs relevant to your niche. For example, say we are targeting the keyword “Technology”. To find all the relevant blogs, type in Google:

Technology “Enable CommentLuv which will try and get your last blog post, please be patient while it finds it for you”

And we get about 200 blogs we can comment on. Assuming that our comments are not spam and add value to the blog post, that’s 400 backlinks for this one term (One for your anchor text link, and one for your most recent RSS feed)! Of course the above is a single niche example which is quite limited but you get the idea!

Now it’s time to change the term to our other niche related keywords we are targeting, and start commenting!

NOTE: When posting comments on other people’s blogs, do not spam. Make your comment helpful and useful to help preserve the “dofollow” community. (What is dofollow? Find out here.)

UPDATE: Easily find DoFollow blogs with CommentLuv on themwith our new DoFollow Blogs Search Engine, DoFollow Diver!

    This is an awesome plugin. Thank you very much for informing us about commentluv. I have enabled comments on some of my websites. I am planning to use this plugin at that sites. Thanks again.

  2. Interesting!
    CommentLuv helps you reward your commentators by separating their name from their keywords in the link to their site. This gives them improved anchor text, which can help their site rank higher in the search engine results.
    You can now leave a comment with your name as well as a keyword of your choice here and get a PR5 link back to your site! How cool is that? People pay big bucks for that and all you have to do is comment here.

  3. Thanks for the info. I’m working on it.

  4. Your post makes one think! Great article. Thanks for allowing me to comment!

  5. Thank you for this very useful information!

    CommentLuv Plus DoFollow = Unlimited Link Love
    commentLuv is a great way to encourage people to leave comments. Is there any workaround through which I can have commentluv enabled in blogger?

  8. Well, I can say that I’m a lazy link builder or should say too lazy. Writing articles and get them posted on article sites, directory submissions, link exchanges these ways for building links are too boring.

    But surfing the web on topics of interest and also getting a link back is win win deal.

    Thanks I have gained lot from this site, getting new ideas all the time and yeah got some motivation too.

    thanks again.

  9. Many people under estimate the networking of links, they think you just design a website and people will come. If your store is at the back of a mall in a little small shed that no one can see it will soon close.

    No matter how precious or great the product is.

    If it is hidden so are your customers.

    Links are like gigantic stage lights shining on you.

  10. Great Idea. Can’t wait to try it out.

  11. The plug-in is great. I sincerely hope that Google doesn’t start taking a stance against having too many follow links. Commenting with follow links is one commodity we need to continue to leverage to support one another!

  18. Rhys says:

    BTW -
    There is a new Ajaxed version of CommentLuv with lots of new functions and it works on Blogger and Typepad too. For instance, it puts the apostrophe in the user name like Rhys’s last post…. instead of misspelling Rhyss last post as above!

    We all hope that!!! I just found CommentLuv after starting my 3rd blog and now I have to put it in my older ones.

  23. Etf says:

    I think one of the best things about comment luv is it uses the actual post name for link. This way people can control what term is listed for thier posts and everyone knows what they are about.

    It also is a great way to increase traffic to your site and let people share thier own sites.

    Commentluv is awesome. Dofollow commentluv is even better. Not totally sold on Keywordluv yet, though. Makes everyone look like a spammer, even if it is good for SEO.

  27. Commentluv is a great way to reward readers for commenting on your blog. The reader is rewarded with a useful backlink, while the blogger gets added relevant discussion.

  28. keywordluv is also a nice plugin, quite similar to commentluv. Keep up the good work. Small traffic increase is nice :)

  34. This plugin will definately get you more comments on your blogs!

  35. Comment luv is pretty cool!

  36. Mike says:

    I like CommentLuv but like the article says, it needs to have the follow tag enabled for it to be worthwhile. I installed it on my blog and removed the no follow tag and will be curious to see what difference it makes, if at all.

  41. I loved CommentLuv the moment I heard about it. It seems SOME blogs just sent your thoughts to the ol’ spam file without looking at it. Wht bother with a blog if you do not like online feedback and talk.

  42. The thing I like about comment luv and do follow is that you can give back to those whose visits and comments are raising the profile of your own blog.

  43. Hisham says:

    I must say that commentluv helped me lots, and I build a good relations with my blogger friends through comments!

  44. I think everybody should have the do follow plugin installed.Thanks for the post and the information. It is really hard to find the right plug-in. I tried the “you comment, I follow” one but I did not realize that there were additional settings to make it work correctly (i.e. nofollow)

  45. WebMax says:

    CommentLuv rocks, but word on the street is that Google is giving blog commenting a move down. Use it while you can boys!

  46. I think that CommentLuv add a terrific interactive capability and promotes great dialog. I love it!

  47. Hi,
    Commentluv is a great plugin. When you have both commentluv and keywordluv you get two links to two separate page on your blog.
    This is really fantastic for blog owners and commentators as well.
    Thanks for sharing.

  48. By the time when I heard of CommentLuv, I really liked the idea and when I installed the plugin in my blog, the traffic was amazingly increasing.

  49. Aaron says:

    Thanks for the tips. I am going to enable CommentLuv on my blog and company blog right now since it will drive traffic and more interaction from real people.
