No conspiracy there. Great blog. I just recently found it and am still reading back through all you old posts. I am just getting into the "making money online" game and found several of your posts helpful. Thanks for sharing your knowledge. Happy New Year to all! Happy New Year to all!

Great blog. I just recently found it and am still reading back through all you old posts. I am just getting into the “making money online” game and found several of your posts helpful. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.

Happy New Year to all!

Happy New Year to all!

The blogs I read that don't have the keyword plug-in I always use just my name when commenting. People that do use the plug-in should expect people to use a keyword and not get offended. Whether or not they allow that link to direct back to commenter’s site is their right. Friends or not.

On my blog, I installed Lucia's Linky Love and it only dofollows the author's url. All other links both within the comment, ping/trackbacks and commentluv links are NOFOLLOW. HAPPY NEW YEAR ;) Just wanted to let you know that you could incorporate Commentluv back into your blog while using SEO Super Comment.

Todd I find it particularly amusing with posts which have PR - the people commenting think that I am going to approve each and every comment and then I get complaints that there comment hasn't appeared!

I don't mind a bit if my friends do it. lol, and I think Lissie and I are friends, so it should be all good :-D Hi Matt,

I mean ranting about people using keywords and then adding yours...funny! Anyone using KeywordLuv should expect that the commenter is going to use a keyword. That's the whole point, right?

What kind of attracts me to the idea of making top commenter posts is that a lot of people dropping comments probably have some content that might be worth linking to (even the spammers) ... you just don't always get to see it because they're too busy trying to get their keywords into every comment they make, and eventually someone sends them to akismet land. I'm just thinking that not having to worry about keywords (because there's no link) might make things easier on both bloggers and commenters. Oh well, something to think on. In the mean time, I may end up turning off the SEO supercomments plugin myself, as something happened with my theme's comment file, and I can't get my "whitelist" function to work ... which is the primary reason I installed the silly thing in the first place. p.s. do you like my bit of irony? ... putting my own keyword link in a post where I make a mini-rant about keyword links in comments :-D Hi Lis,

And I find it funny when people I don't know still show up to leave keyword anchored links, even though they're just linking to another page on MY blog. I almost think a more interesting experiment might be to just turn off links all together (ie., just show the person's name on comments). And see how much of a hit comment counts take. Maybe have some other "incentive", such as a weekly "top commenters" post, that contains contextual in-post links to the selected sites/articles of those who contribute most to the conversation. I don't know how much this might hurt or help a site, but it would certainly make moderation easier :-) Even though I seem to have started this whole thing, I too am not so sure there’s any particular benefit to the plugin.
