KeywordLuv, CommentLuv and DoFollow – Give And You Will Receive…

November 3, 2009 | By More

DofollowA while back I wrote a couple of posts on DoFollow, CommentLuv and KeywordLuv to let you all know that I had installed these plugins to “share the link love” and give back to my avid readers and commentators. I also wrote an earlier post about proper commenting to get backlinks to your site by commenting on the right blogs – the ones with DoFollow, CommentLuv and KeywordLuv.

Well, there have been hot discussions about whether by having these Plugins on your site you are actually “draining” your own site of “link juice”, because every link from commentators going out might take away a little bit of authority (link juice) from you, and therefore hurt your PageRank in Google. Nobody seems to be really sure whether these plugins do actually hurt your own site or not. That’s why so many bloggers are very hesitant about installing them. Also, there is the issue about possible spam comments – people are scared that these plugins might invite the spammers to leave tons of inappropriate comments for you to deal with.

Guess what – a couple of days ago my mind was put to rest about the whole issue. Because, to be honest, I wasn’t quite so sure myself whether these plugins were good for my blog or not. Want to know what I discovered?

For the last 6+ months my blog has been a PR2. A few days ago Google did an update of PR’s, and my site went up to a PR3! I think that speaks for itself. I have had so many comments over the last few months, and all of them are DoFollow and have links pointing back to the commentators site, and what happened? My blog went UP in PageRank!

This has proven to me that by having these plugins installed and by actively encouraging others to interact with me on my blog I have added value to it, and somebody else seems to be thinking the same πŸ˜‰ . As for the spam comments – yes, I do get more than before, but I have Akismet installed and it’s been protecting me pretty well. Also, I still do approve all comments myself, so there is no problem there.

So, to me it is clear – if you give, you surely shall receive! Now I hope that this post will inspire some of you to do the same…

    Yes Petra, you are right. I too have been rewarded with few PR1, PR2 & PR3 pages, all of which were either 0 or n/a earlier.

    I am generally using these plugins, and I also am using TopCommentors, but I don’t have as many comments as you. Getting comments gives interactions and fresh pings…
    I bet the # of visitors to your blog has increased as well due to these plugins

    Yes i completely agree with you.If your blog is dofollow then you will recieve a lot of spam comments.But your page rank will definitely increase.

    Hi Petra
    Thought I’d drop by and visit a while. I quite agree that if you give, you shall surely recieve. That maxim has been said in so many diferent ways, that it cannot be disputed. It’s as obvious as gravity.
    Hope you’re making loadsa moolah!
    By the way have added a free traffic tip (and other free suff) to my blog if you’d care to comment on it?

    πŸ˜‰

    • Petra Weiss says:

      @Dave, been to your blog and commented on Micro Niche Finder. Great looking blog, and you are going up in Alexa rank, too! About the “loadsa moolah” – it’s really funny, but this blog is not making me any money at all, to be honest. People in the Internet and Affiliate Marketing Niche don’t care much about clicking on other people’s Adsense ads, and are mostly looking for useful information. Which is fair enough, but it proves to me that sometimes the sites that cost you a lot of work can end up making no money, and others that you set up once and then leave alone can trotter on to earn you a little income for a long time (my site about Beach Decor is my biggest earner).

  6. Jacinta Dean says:

    Hi Petra,

    Congrats on the page rank increase. My alexa ranking is improving but I still don’t have page rank yet. Getting there slowly but surely. πŸ˜€

    I have installed Commentluv and DoFollow. I installed them just after reading your first posts on them. I haven’t installed keywordluv yet. So am off to do that one! πŸ˜€

    Hope all is going well, I will be back here soon! :mrgreen:

    Jacinta πŸ˜€

    • Petra Weiss says:

      @Jacinta, thanks for coming back here, and I am glad that my posts are of use for you! Just keep it up and your site will get up there πŸ™‚

  7. monikaSEO says:

    dofollow blogs are better than nofollow blogs i am using these dofollow blogs and got good results.recently i installed keywordluv and commentluv on my site and i got tremendous results.these are tremendous plugins.well i got many key points here thanks to you for sharing your knowledge.

  8. Frank says:

    I once read that page rank plays a less important role than many people think. It’s more about trust rank these days. Trust rank means how well google trusts your site.
    .-= Frank @ Best Forex Trading Software´s last blog ..Forex Secrets =-.

    • Petra Weiss says:

      @Frank, you are right, a site can have a high PR (4 or higher) and still not get many visitors. But it’s still nice!

  9. monikaSEO says:

    thanks for giving keywordluv and dofollow i agree with you.they give you tremendous results if you install them on your site increases traffic on your site too.

  10. manu says:

    i too agree with your above post. All plugins that we use to increase our traffic really helps the low PR websites but a page with high PR don’t need them.Then how they are able to get traffic.Please reply.

    • Petra Weiss says:

      @Manu, websites with a high PR usually have lots of traffic and a high PR because they have a lot of unique and relevant content to offer and people like to read their stuff. πŸ™‚

  11. hospitalera says:

    I agree completely with you, the more you give, the more you get πŸ˜‰ For me the biggest problem are the “human” spammers that just leave a vaguely relevant comment in the hope for a backlink, I must confess it depends a lot on my mood how reliant I am with those πŸ˜‰ Sometimes I approve them, sometimes not, but in general I haven’t regretted of having installed the plugins you mentioned on my own blog! You always get spammers, dofollow or not dofollow blog, but sometimes a “borderline spammer” can become a real avid reader and a real member of your “blog community”, SY

    • Petra Weiss says:

      @hospitalera, I have the same problem with “human” spammers, and just like you it depends how I feel whether I approve or not. I have started to mostly disapprove simply because I am starting to get sick of similar comments all the time. It is also not very interesting for my readers to have 50 of nearly the same “great post, thanks for sharing” comments per post.

  12. Jim Clary says:

    That is good to know, thanks Petra. I have just started using these plugins on my site. I have seen a very nice increase in comments and Alexa rank. I look forward to seeing my page rank go up in the next Google update.

    On the subject of dofollow links. I have 2 new projects that I have just released that I want to invite everyone to use. One is an article directory located at http://articles.jimclarymarketing.com and the other is a blog directory located at http://www.yourblogsource.com

    Both of these sites are set up for dofollow, so I hope everyone enjoys them.

    Keywordluv and commentluv are great ways to reward your visitors with a link I have this running on my blog also I would advise you to put a CAPTCHA thou as this will stop SPAM comments.

    • Petra Weiss says:

      @Monika, that’s good advice! I will have to look into that. So much to learn, so little time!

  14. Darren says:

    Thanks for the info, I had heard of the DoFollow plug-in but had never heard of the KeywordLuv and CommentLuv. I may give them a go.

    I have been struggling with getting visitors to my sites and blogs, thanks for this helpful advice, I will let you know how it goes!

    I have just received my first page rank increase on my diet site (from 0 to 1 whupee!), however when I created that site I used X Site 2 and didn’t know how to set up the blog so I created the blog using wordpress….yes two differing systems for one site is not good.

    I have a horrible feeling that any extra traffic to my blog doesn’t really help my main site. I really do have to sort the construction out!

    Really glad I have found your site Petra, there is some great advice here.

  15. It’s obvious that more backlinks help a site rank. Good job!

  16. Stephen says:

    Those who participate on blog with their views must be rewarded as this encourage them. Comment Luv and Keyword Luv is really great tool for doing this.

    Hi Petra,

    Thanks for another post on this subject. I’ve been aware of these plug ins for a while and use comment luv and top commentators.

    I wonder what is the best place to download the keyword luv plug in.
    If there is only one version of it it shouldn’t matter but there could be more than one version.

    I’ll let you know when I install it so you can take advantage of it.

    I recently discovered commentluv, keywordluv and dofollow. I think it’s a great way to spread the love and encourage discussions.

  21. Vance says:

    It sounds like your results of running keyword luv on your site have been positive…and your page rank has increased! That’s great news. Keyword luv is a win-win for both the blog owner and the commentator. The blog owner gets fresh, quality content…who doesn’t need content?! The commentator get a good quality back link that is keyword based…sounds win-win to me!

    Hi guys Im amazed at the power of these plugins to they are great.
    Couple of things, top commentator is also good gives lots of links.
    I gave my self a link from a relevent site as it had the same content and was relevent but it was the same server,

    google has since slapped my site. So build links slowly on new sites to everyones success!

  26. monika says:

    thanks Petra for appreciating my comment.i like your blog dear.do follow is the great way to get back links to your site. also get you a lot incoming links from the other websites that link to dofollow blogs.if you comment on dofollow blogs try to comment thoughtful comment, that add something to the blog.

  27. Dena says:

    I like these plugins a lot. Not only is the functionality very helpful, but it also sets expectations of both the blogger and the commenter.

    Whenever I visit a blog and I see Commentluv in use, it makes me feel that the blogger appreciates good comments. Specifically if I have something to say that is of value, the blogger has at least thought enough to provide a keyword-rich signature. From the blogger’s standpoint, I also think that it communicates a willingness to reward commenters to a point….

  28. Christian says:

    As David said above, these plugins help us new bloggers a lot, specially when new rankings are needed.

    Petra, your blog is awesome and I’m already reading it on my FeedReader.

    Thanks for the tips and success for you!

  29. Roy says:

    I personally think that there is nothing wrong with giving a DoFollow link if the comment actually adds to the discussion.

    If someone is spamming you and the comment has no relevance to the original post then they shouldn’t get a link for it and as the blog owner you’d have to monitor your own comments to make sure none slip through.

    I think Google in particular tries to control us by making us think that by linking out we’ll lose “link juice” and fall foul of their guidelines. For you though, it seems the opposite has happened. Probably because of all the links to your site from other places telling people that your site is DoFollow!

    All my blogs are do follow and if Google don’t like it, they know where they can go….

    None of my commentators took advantage of it but at least they got the do follow link.

  39. Kevin says:

    Good Post, thank you for answering questions I had about commentluv and keywordluv. Both of which I was taught to put on this site and my one other site I have just created. I am new to this experience and am learning much with much more to learn. I have a question…
    Am I supposed to comment just on sites/blogs that are similar in nature to my two, or is it a benefit to me to comment on all blogs?

    Thank you for the hardwork you put into your blog to teach us. These plugins are really a wonderful, powerful tool to help us work smarter-not harder and is in fact working for us.

    I will be by another time to post a link from my other website, with your permission.

    Oh hey, should I post on my own two blogs? would that work to help myself out?

    Sorry if I am being a pain.

    • Petra Weiss says:

      Kevin, it is always of benefit to comment on all blogs, whether they have these plugins or not. In fact, I would consider it selfish if you only look for the blogs with the plugins. Sure, you can predominantly try and focus on the blog that will give you the backlinks, but give the other bloggers a chance, too.
      You can always create links in between your sites, it’s actually a good thing. I leave links to other posts of mine within the same blog quite regularly, it’s good for SEO.

      • hospitalera says:

        I agree with Petra, what would Google think if you only had dofollow links and no nofollow at all (in an extreme case) I am sure that would raise warning flags for Google. My 2 cents for link-building: Make it look naturally πŸ˜‰ SY

    Very cool that you’ve added comment love. Hopefully it will increase comments and interaction.

    CommentLuv and KeywordLuv are just two of traffic bringing wordpress plugins – we are using them and they bring us a lot of website traffic.

  45. Gail says:

    Hello Petra,

    I found you through the KeywordLuv page at Blog Catalog. There is yet another new debate raging across the Web regarding whether dofollow comments are good or bad for PR.

    I comment in many of them and provided examples of sites and specific posts with huge numbers of links that have hundreds of dofollow comment links and are still PR3.

    I personally do not believe that dofollow is bad for PR and I also do not believe PR is all that important. Although links from high PR pages ARE effective, relevant links from high quality sites are more important than the PR of each page.

    I have a list of DoFollow CommentLuv KeywordLuv blogs in the post I’ll feature in CommentLuv in this comment. I am seeking assistance to make sure that all DoFollow CommentLuv KeywordLuv blogs get included with multiple links to their optimum anchor text.

    Hi Petra,

    I am kinda new in blog commenting and doesn’t know much about “do follow” stuff. What does it do? How will I find one that is “do follow”

    P.S.
    I am a fan of yours, I always like your posts.

    • Petra Weiss says:

      DoFollow will remove the “nofollow” tag from a link so that when Google crawls the site it will actually “see” the link and put value on it. If it has “nofollow” attached, Google won’t “see” it so it will be useless in SEO terms.

      Yes, I am still using the Commission Ritual methods, I just haven’t had time to do much πŸ™
      Looks like you are on the right track with your blog, though! If you add some AdSense, it will give you another revenue now.

  81. I think both the KeywordLuv and CommentLuv are great plugins. They do encourage people to leave comments and increase readership. But the problem is getting quality comments as well as going through each comment to weed out those spammy ones. I suppose you will always have to take the good with the bad and make the best out of it. πŸ˜‰

  82. Thanks for such a great post! This will really help me.

  86. Neil Hess says:

    Thanks for sharing. CommentLuv and keywordluv is very good plug-in .A growing number of blogs are using this plug-in every day.

    I agree that these plugins, by nature, could have the potential to bring in spammers, but I think there are more positive rather than negative aspects that come from this new technology. Besides, the blogger will always have to ultimate power the decide whether or not they like the posts added.

    I was looking to add Luv commented on my blog. I know being a do-follow blogs will help with PR and increasing my website ranking on the site of my juicy regime. But when I created my site using the site X 2 and do not know how to set up the blog so I created my blog using wordpress, because two different systems are made on a site is not good. In addition, traffic to my blog spam issues as well as more than that I can not arrange the time for it. But after I read the manual on your blog. I feel very useful advice here, Petra, in which your blog.

  89. Faris says:

    The KeywordLuv, CommentLuv and DoFollow is a win win situation for all of us.

  90. Petra, by installing keywordluv and commentluv plugins on your blogpost, you have definitely increased the interaction between commenters and bloggers. Of course you will still be getting your fair share of spammers. But I’m sure it will be worth it if a good portion of those who spam become truly interested and make it a point to avidly read your posts and increase your readership.

  91. Ejvind says:

    That is so cool. I have been looking for evidence that we wouldn’t loose “link juice” when using the luv plug-ins. Now I’ll sleep better at night πŸ™‚

  92. This has proven to me that by having these plugins installed and by actively encouraging others to interact with me on my blog I have added value to it, and somebody else seems to be thinking the same

  93. These plugins are really needed for the hour. Webmasters install them on their blog but spammers really take advantage of it. I have it in my blog as well, but this will definitely increase the moderation time. But in my personal opinion its highly helpful.

  94. Yeah it’s true sites with dofollow, commentluv and keywordluv would help increase the page rank. But you have to take the risk just need to filter it.

    Thanks for adding these great plugins to your site! I’ve added them to my sites as well and have seen great results. They are a great way to bring people to your blog and benefit the posters at the same time so everyone wins! The only problem I’ve encounter is the occasional spammer. However, Askimet with WP has done a pretty good job of keeping them under control. Thumb’s up to the developers!

    These plugins are just great, they help you get the backlinks that you need. Thanks for the luv

  97. Bob says:

    Hey thanks for using such a Fab plugin, its getting harder to find these days and without them we cant get the backlinks we need, for our sites to get more traffic and help increase its page rank.

  98. Hmm, we would like to give backlinks to our readers who leave a good comment. But with all those spammers around it is quite tough πŸ™
    It might be manageable up to a certain amount of spam you get a day, but the bigger the traffic the harder it becomes.
    An Interesting question is the traffic these spammers create. Do you think it might help the rankings to “ATTRACT SPAMMERS” to your sites? Install the commentluv plugin and have millions of pageviews?
    Anyone tested this?
    Thanks

    Petra, you do absolutely good at rewarding all your commentators this way – in return you always get more content in the form of comments off course and this pushes a blog post up in the search engines – improving traffic to a blog. The other thing I read in your post up here is of the concern of many blog owners who would think that you will lose pr when deciding on dofollow – well it’s not at all the case . . .
    Thank you!

  103. Josh says:

    Thanks for using keyword luv. These wordpress plugins are fabulous. What better way to reward commentors on your site than giving them a backlink. Thanks again, and awesome blog.

  108. Thanks for posting such a important and informative post. Petra you have really done a good job. I was in search of such information from last few months. Information regarding keyword, pagerank and dofollow are very important and useful for all the users including me. Good Job.

  109. I have recently jumped on the Commentluv bandwagon and I wasn’t sure if the benefits would be worth it or not. Time will tell if my Alexa and PR rank improves…
