When you first start writing to a New blog what you are looking for in addition to traffic to your posts, is to try to create a community of like minded and loyal readers that you can interact with.

One way you could go about this is by encouraging your readers to leave useful comments on the articles that you write. I have just found a great little wordpress plugin that could help with that.

The plugin is called CommentLuv and can be found here at FiddyP’s site.

What is so useful about this plugin you may ask.

When a reader leaves a comment on your blog they get a link back to the Site that they entered in the Website or URI field in your blog posts comment box. This is all well and good for your reader, especially if you use the Dofollow plugin on your blog, as this May help them to receive some extra page rank for their site. It could be better though, by making use of the CommentLuv plugin there is a new tickbox added to the comments section that says:

Enable CommentLuv which will try and get your last blog post, please be patient while it finds it for you.

What happens is that the CommentLuv Wordpress Plugin visits the feed of the comment author and then it attempts to scrape the last post they made and display it as an Extra Link under their comment.

This is much better for your reader as now they have an Extra Link pointing back to their site, and better for your blog as more poeple leave comments for you.

There is some more in depth information on the use of the plugin over at the plugins Homepage.

Go ahead and try it out below by leaving a comment to this article.

Talk to you soon.
