Why CommentLuv Will Expand Your Link Building Efforts
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!
Very interesting. I cut and pasted that exact search: Technology “Enable CommentLuv which will try and get your last blog post, please be patient while it finds it for you”. Into Google and it came back with 110,000 results.
How did you find the 200 sites?

Hey… when you click through the pages at the bottom, it starts lowering the amount of results that it actually did find, because a lot of them are repeated results. Each of those results is a blog you can go to that somewhere mentions “technology” and if you post your comment, you get the anchor text link ,and the CommentLuv link.
Hope that helps!
Just because the blog owner is using CommentLuv doesn’t mean the link is dofollow.
You’re right… but being a “top commenter” on a relevant blog, is free advertising.
lol, I actually had somebody find one of my blogs the other day using this technique. Although, in that case, he just searched “CommentLuv + Personal Growth”.
If you’re someone who likes to network through commenting, you might as well try to find blogs that use CommentLuv.
… an added benefit that I’ve found is that if I know I am going to comment on blog using this plugin, I have to make sure my latest post is something I actually want people to see. Basically it encourages me to write more posts.

Crystal Point’s last blog post..Metropolit an Diary
That’s fantastic! And yes, I have had the same thoughts as you have with regards to, “Am I really writing something i want to show on Comment Luv when i comment?”
How do I find blogs that dofollow?
Nathan Cain’s last blog post..We added some bonuses to the free magnets offer.
I had never even given it a thought to search by category nor did I know it mattered in terms of how the SEs perceived the value of the link.

I think this is a great tool to encourage user participation by rewarding them for adding meaningful content to the blog. Blogging should be an interaction between the reader and writer. Increased comments on your blog has search benefits for the blog(ger) and commentluv gives a nice plug to the commenter. Seems like a nice match if it doesn’t become a spam magnet.
Now this is a beautiful tip. Customizing search results in this way is a great way of getting some useful info, and it helps a lot that many helpful link-building/traffic-increasing services have the same text in them.
Internet Marketing Blog’s last blog post..Focus
It would be a great idea to use the plugin on my site about online security, antivirus programs, etc, but unfortunately I am running Joomla, so I think I should look for a corresponding plugin. Until I find it, I will just turn off coments and login capability…
This is a plugin that i find useful in that it gives the commenter a reward for the contribution the have made when the leave a comment on a website.

Yah, use whatever search engine you’re comfortable with to find the blogs…. but the links from CommentLuv, will count as backlinks for all search engines.
Hi, i must say thanks for writing such an article and i do agree with you concerning the benefits of commenting on blogs with the commentluv plug can bring a blogger.
Junii’s last blog post..Learning the Basics of RSS
Good article.Commenting on blogs is really useful, at least if you are the first one commenting.Many people only comment on blogs which has the “no follow” disabled. I make a comment if the blog post is good and I can add to the discussion.
Tom At The Home Business Archives last blog post..Best No Fee Work From Home Jobs and Home Business Opportunity
I’m new to blogging, but this seems like an excellent idea. It both encourages commenters (spammers can still be moderated) and also keeps commenters’ anchor text clean, and rewards them with an extra back link. thanks for this info.

I just tried it, and the first one that came up was a nofollow blog anyway…

Yah, there’s no way to make it show only dofollow blogs, but you can use my dofollow blogs search engine to search for dofollow blogs, and you can sort out the ones with dofollow CommentLuv.
Awesome…. thanks for subscribing!!!
Whats your idea? Please share with the class….
I am not sure if google really count link from commentluv as do follow link. Maybe yes and maybe no, only google know about it.

Is there a way to determine which ones are actually dofollow?
Johns last blog post..2008 WSOP Trip Report
I always wonder would enabling DoFollow on your own blog does to your PR - do you leak too much google juice?
Honestly… I don’t know, my site isn’t to that point yet, as it’s only been through 1 PR update, and my site was still too new.
In any matter, PageRank for your own site doesn’t matter too too much until you start getting into 6’s, etc… you can still rank high w/o page rank and being dofollow.
I have dofollow comments, dofollow commentluv, and dofollow top commenters…. plus I am fairly liberal with dofollow linking in posts to good sites… more liberal than most I’ve seen… and I am still ranking higher on Google for link building, a pretty hard niche to rank for. So is there some affect, probably, am I suffering from it? nah..,.
Yes… read my posts on How to Determine if a Link Is Dofollow or Nofollow.
Thanks for the valuable tip. I have checked and most of the found blogs are dofollow because there is no point of installing CommentLuv and reward commentators with 2 worthless links instead of 1.
Commenting on blogs with CommentLuv has definitely helped my deep linking strategy.

I think this whole commentluv movement is really fantastic. I’m in the process of enabling it on my blog now (which is dofollow incidentally!). It’s great to reward your contributors with double love!
dan@personal development blogs last blog post..Thoughts on Change and Growth
I agree with you - Commentluv has to be one of the best plugins I’ve added to me site.
And I’ve added bunches.

This is terrific, comment luv is awesome it really helps to give a bigger reason to make the conversation worth while, Another way I use comment Luv is similar except that I use a specialized search tool that returns the results that you speak of but at the same time it tells you the PR, whether the blog is sunscribes to the ideal of DOfollow links or nofollow, it makes searching for quality blogs really easy,
Hope it helps and have a wonderful day

anchor texts last blog post..
Hi John,
This may be late but if you go to the page you are commenting on and right click, then go to view source, then go to the menu bar and click find, then type in nofollow, if nofollow shows its a nofollow if not then its a dofollow, another way thats really easy cause it gives you all the info you need is at
Ironically, when I figured this out and put it into the search engine, YOUR site came up on top. LOL You’re getting in my way!
I luv CommentLuv, but it tends to conflict with several of my social media plugins such as sociable and one of my captcha utilities. What bookmarklet plugin are you using for Digg/Stumble etc on this post?

SEO Blogs last blog post..Why You Should Promote Residual Affiliate Programs
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.
Thanks for the info. I’m working on it.
Your post makes one think! Great article. Thanks for allowing me to comment!
Thank you for this very useful information!

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.

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.

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.
