I have just now discovered a very useful plugin for WordPress. It is called CommentLuv Plugin.
You can also read my previous post Best (must have) WordPress Plugins to find out more interesting WordPress Plugins.
How does this plugin get you more comments and visitors?
After you leave a comment on a blog that has CommentLuv plugin installed, CommentLuv will try to detect the latest post from your blog and then present a link to the post at the bottom of the comment. It’s a nice way to repay those readers who leave a comment.
I discovered this plugin and found in action here. You can see my comment and also my last post link here
After you install this plugin, you will notice a new check box with following text:
Enable CommentLuv which will try and get your last blog post, please be patient while it finds it for you
CommentLuv Plugin will give you some of the below Benefits :
- You will get a link to your latest blog post
- More visitors will be willing to leave a comment
as they will get a link of their latest blog post
Now that you know the benefits of this plugin, why not Download CommentLuv and get more interaction with your visitors!
Click below to download the plugin

UPDATE : CommentLuv Plugin is now Ajaxed – AjaxedCommentLuv has more exciting features
If you find this post useful. Try leaving a comment and check whether you blog last post is appearing or not
Indeed, CommentLuv is really great! Btw, check my last post on my blog :-p
I think that comments are the most important things for a blogger because it gives you feedback. It makes you feel like you are not writing in the wind.
So everything that can enhance commenter experience is a great thing!
Another big issue to me with comments is the fact that unless you are the first to comment (gotcha I’m the first here!), your comment will get little if no visibility at all. Comments are just put at the bottom of a list and they are just “lost”. If I spend time to write a comment, I don’t want my comment to be hidden somewhere.
I’ve been working on this issue and I came up with Commentag (http://www.commentag.com). It automatically tags comments and visitors can filter them based on topics. So even if your comment is the 13th one, it could be the first under the tag “Other links” for example.
Go check it out. Would be more than interested to hear your thoughts about it!
Xavier,
Thanks for letting me know. I will have a look at it.
BTW, why your last post is not yet picked up here?
It is strange indeed. CommentLuv should have picked it… Strange enough.
Let’s do it manually:
My last post is there:
http://www.xavierdamman.be/blo.....epository/
Xavier Dammans last blog post..The Google of the Web3.0 will be a Tag repository.
I think I got it: you have to end your URL with a Slash to make CommentLuv working.
If it is not working on this comment, then it is definitelly the reason.
Otherwise it may be just a connection problem when commentluv tried to connect to my blog.
Xavier Dammans last blog post..The Google of the Web3.0 will be a Tag repository.
Xavier,
This time commentluv plugin picked up your last post
Xavier,
I will try to look at the plugin code and if i can understand fix that and let also the author know if possible.
BTW how did you come to know about my blog?
Looks like working even without a slash at the end.
So I guess it was just a connection problem to my blog when I posted my first comment. I wouldn’t worry that much.
I land on your blog via Digg
Xavier Dammans last blog post..The Google of the Web3.0 will be a Tag repository.
Very good write up… Very interesting Plugin…
So you got lot of comments love!!!
Blog is good…but if you can reduce the amount of adversitising, you can attract more users.

Big fan of commentluv, and just started experimenting with it. Does it really encourage more comments, and how do you let others know about commenting on your blog?

Got it?
Wow !
That little plug in really increased my daily visitors a bit, with the passage of time there might be an increase in tweaks for this plugin too – version or improvement.
I just tried it on my blog and it works great, it really increased my daily unique visitors and helped me increasing my blog’s exposure.
Thanks for sharing

Cool plugin I am think about adding it to my site
I have tried to use it but it is using lots of memory. My server started to use extra ram so i removed the plugin.
SEO Blogs last blog post..Why You Should Promote Residual Affiliate Programs
I’ve noticed a huge difference in the number and quality of comments after I installed CommentLuv. Especially when people see I approve comments that are of value in bot information and aren’t simply one liners that want to get links back to their site.
I would encourage anyone who has a blog to seriously consider installing the CommentLuv plugin and at least consider removing the nofollow tag. Sure you might get a few spam comments, but you can always delete these instead of approving. Remember, comments are content for your site, fresh content, and if the person leaving the comment has written something of value then it can help when the search spiders crawl your site for fresh content.

Ian Richardsons last blog post..How Big is Big Enough?
@PC, Happy to see that you came to know about the plugin from this blog…
@Busby, You add it. it will definitely help you to get more comments
@SEO Blog, Yes the plugin slows down the submitting of comment part because, it tries to find the latest post.
@Ian Richardson, You are right. it will increase the number of comments but also the quality might decrease. As a author of this blog should selectively moderate the comments…
Nice plugin, thanks
commentluv is a great plugin…definitely a good thing
@John,@interior decorator.
Yes, commentluv is a great plugin.

CommentLuv is a great and most useful tool to add depth and breadth to blog comments and overall interactive discussions on blogs and blog postings
@Comment on CommentLuv, Yes it is indeed a very good plugin. helps us build a blogging community.
This is great way for you to increase your comments on your blog that’s for sure. But then again you need to a lot of moderation as well
@free movies online, i agree with you. we need to find out who is genuine commentar and who is commenting just for the sake of getting post’s link as backlink.
Comment me NOW!!
You can tell by the number of comments over such a long period of time, that people are interested in commentluv. It is a great addition to anyone’s blog.

I luv this plugin, its the reason i found this site. Comment luv is awesome. thanks!
CommentLuv certainly makes it easier to find other relevant blogs to post on. I do wonder how it is going to hold up with the new competition from similar programs like Disqus. It should be interesting, but competition should be great for us users, who need them to continue getting better at keeping Spam off our blogs.
I appreciate the luv being spread. Thx.
Thanks for sharing.It is very good commentluv plugin that will making nice blog and increase comments.I like it
I added CommentLuv a few days ago at one of my visitor’s suggestions and it is a good idea.
Comment luv is a great idea and I haven’t been aware of it for very long.
Hi Nihar, I have no idea if this will work with my wordpress hosting blog. If it does, then stay tuned for more commenting from yours truly. Take care
Indeed. Since I installed Comment Luv, I received many more comments. Excellent feature.
This is one of the greatest plugins ever, and probably one of the most used plugins
