Bloggers and businesses alike may not realize how very important CommentLuv can be to them. By joining the CommentLuv community you can connect with many others interested in the same things you are.
The CommentLuv featured posts you see in blogs that have CommentLuv installed make it easy to see which other commentators (people leaving comments) write about what you are interested in. Clicking on those comments connects you instantly with them.
There are already niches forming within the more than 20,000+ CommentLuv enabled blogs and the CommentLuv commuity is growing rapidly.
Whether you have a blog or not it is important that you seek out bloggers who write about subjects near and dear to your heart which for business owners means those related to the products and services you have to offer.
BLOGGERS: Welcome business owners as readers and commentators.
Invite them to share their expertise as guest bloggers.
Their experience and knowledge makes your blog even better!
Remember that they have interests beyond what they do
and interesting things to say on other subjects.
Be tolerant of those new to commenting and Social Networking and guide them in what is appropriate behavior. I am certain we have all made mistakes when we first got online. Never assume they realize what they are doing until we first explain what is expected.
BUSINESSES: Do not spam blogs.
Do not hire SEO companies to spam blogs.
Do not turn your comments into advertisements.
DO contribute to the discussion and share what you know.
Let CommentLuv default links guide the blog owners and readers who are interested in what you offer to your site. Use the information about default links to register your business and select anchor text that creates beneficial backlinks without detracting from the blog where they appear.
I wrote the information below in reply to a question that Mike Criss, owner of the online printing company PrintingBlue posed in my post about KeywordLuv.
I was prompted to write this post to share what I told him with all my readers including those who rarely read the comments. I highly recommend you read comments here because I share as much in them as I post!
I will also answer any questions you leave or you can use my contact form to reach me via email. I would be happy to answer any specific questions you have.
To benefit from using CommentLuv and KeywordLuv you do not have
to have them installed but I DO recommend installing at least CommentLuv.
I strongly encourage all bloggers to install at least CommentLuv and all bloggers and business owners to register to use CommentLuv.
Not long I ago I would have encouraged all bloggers to install both but there is breaking news about new features in CommentLuv that I’ll include in this reply that may make KeywordLuv unnecessary.
My KeywordLuv post explains how you as a business owner can use blogs that have KeywordLuv installed to create dofollow backlinks that will allow your site to be found in the search engines. Now you can get the same benefits by being a valuable contributor in CommentLuv blogs.
Here are some additional resources that will help you do that best:
- First you need to know what keyword phrases are important to you. I explain how to do that in my post about using anchor text links to build traffic and get found in the search engines.
- When you create content you need to consistently use those keyword phrases. I explain where and how to use them in my post about selecting keywords first and then writing copy.
- Since this post was written CommentLuv has added new features that allow bloggers and businesses to register default links that automatically create anchor text without having keywords in the name field (which many don’t really like). Read how to use CommentLuv default links for anchor text.
- If you’re not familiar with CommentLuv also read How CommentLuv works.
I strongly recommend all businesses and bloggers who want to survive the economic downturn that is NOT going to recover and IS going to get worse learn why it is inevitable that the economy is going to continue to slide (both in the U.S. and globally).
The solution is to support small businesses – both the ones online and in their local communities.
There is more about why supporting the marketing efforts of small and online businesses is critical in my post about Word of Mouth. Find out what is causing worldwide economic collapse and how you can best avoid being a victim of it by reading these last two links.

“I noticed that the Twitter field has the wrong account” Growmap! What do you mean by this? Should I have it as my business name? Is there any real benefit of changing it?
I’ve never really seen twitter names included in comments like this, I suppose it makes sense if people are looking for me, then my twitter page would also appear right?

This is very interesting article. Comment luv are helpful for make our site more popular and increase traffic. It’s useful to promote our business.
Thanks
Your points re: “businesses” are most welcome. I’ve been dealing with spam bots and spammers generally that somehow are very aware of how commentluv works and it is quite annoying. I am very happy with CommentLuv, though, and love your post as a call to action and promotion. The more people that use the service the better – I’m eager to read and respond on commentluv blogs.
Absolutely love commentluv. For us, we started out looking for another way to generate links, however, the relationships we’ve garnared along the way is what makes commentluv special. We have about 15ish blogs we try to comment on, so developing relationships is a bit easier than someone trying to comment on scores of blogs.
I am not sure this commentluv stuff is really doing much. I get a ton of traffic without using it and another ton of spam . If I add it I am afraid of how much more it will increase the spam.
While commentluv is a great plugin, I do think its nevertheless a arguable subject that nofollow links actually make a difference. Sometimes it nearly appears as though it depends on the web site ; if its a nothing blog then the nofollowed link is nearly worthless, but when its from a high authority website (corresponding to hubpages or ezine articles for example), then it may be pretty sweet though to achieve any PR growth you’ll need dofollow links.
Key word luv is the best partner of Comment Luv. i dont know why only few people know about this plugin.

Interestingly I found your tangent comment about the economy much more interesting, I like looking at other people’s views of why economy, except that I am in agreement with you about the economy. It is going to parallel the great depression, it will get better for time, which it did, then it started going down the toilet again, which I think it is doing.
Commentluv plugin increase traffic of a website of blog very fast. I use this in all my blogs.

CommentLuv is probably my favorite plugin. It is re-energizing the blogging community and rewarding readers who help add value to blogs. I couldn’t be happier to see it really catching on. Thanks for all the great information!

Indeed, your post is a great help to those business owners and entrepreneurs who was able to read this.
If being used wisely, Commentluv is one way of spreading and knowing other people about your business. But sometimes a lot of business owners are hesitant maybe because they don’t have much time going to other business related sites and do commenting. Fortunately, there are entrepreneurs who have seen the potential of social networking sites and the internet in promoting their businesses inexpensively. Good thing is that this is very outsourceable.
Your post is very helpful and informative.

Thanks for installing the CommentLuv Plug In on this site. This Plug In provides a great way to get content on your site and a way for others to get one of those quality backlinks.
CommentLuv is excellent for both parties,reader and blogger as well.For reader one get quality link and for blog,good content which helps for optimization.
I cannot agree more about what you said concerning businesses that use SEO companies to spam bloggers. Every single one of them gets tossed in my spam folder and I blacklist the ones who send “follow ups”. I installed commentLuv last year on a whim, and I think it’s been good for my blog. I’m not totally sure how to check HOW beneficial it’s been, but I believe what you say. I need to learn more about this do-follow stuff.
