Where is the love? Right here
This brand spankin’ new blog has already received a few comments, which is great. Thanks to everyone who has participated so far. Hopefully my riveting posts will continue to stir discussion amongst the readers of this blog. However, there is nothing wrong with trying to encourage more comments by giving something back to the readers that support this blog. Knowing that a lot of the readers of this blog are going to be fellow Internet earners who have their own sites to promote, I’ve added a few WordPress plug-ins that will give commentators some link juice. So what features have we added and where can you get them for yourself? Read on…
This juice is full of linky goodness
DoFollow
This removes the nofollow tag from all comments, meaning you get the link juice you deserve.
Get Recent Comments
This simply lists the most recent comments along with a link to the commenter’s URL.
Top Commentators Widget
Shown as a sidebar widget, this lists the most dedicated commentators on your blog and is even more beneficial for links because they are shown site wide, so if you make it onto this list, there’s plenty of links coming your way.
CommentLuv
This plug-in will list your latest blog entry at the bottom of your comments. How exactly? It basically searches your URL and grabs the latest post, so keep those post titles interesting and you might get some extra traffic along with the deep linking action you get from CommentLuv.
Win >> I’m also going to be rewarding 150 EntreCard credits to the best comment each week, I’ll hand out the first of these prizes in a week’s time, Tuesday 2nd September.

Great!
I came here for the 150EC comment contest, yet I got so much more!
I’ve been looking for that CommentLuv and have been wondering how to get the top commenters in my blog.
Thanks! I’ve already won with these!
Roys last blog post..2,000 EC credits at stake!

CommentLuv is quite yummy. I’ve never gotten the Top Commentators plugin to work for me.

@bonoriau - Thanks! It’s good to see you are getting plenty of comments now, almost 100 on your “786 Ways to Market Your Blog” post, that’s great.
@Susan - I wanted to get CommentLuv for quite awhile after seeing it on other blogs, it really is awesome.
@Sofhal Jamil - Cheers. I commented back and joined your Entrecard contest too.

Nothing is more rewarding than to be appreciated and all those plugins do the wonderful job. A “Subscribe to Comment” would be a nice addition though.
