Your plugin is awesome. But it’s pretty “useless” when people still use nofollow

Hi,

Ultimately, the blog webmaster has control over the comments
which do or do not make sense for their site anyway. I also
heard of and will be checking out a related plugin called
KeywordLuv. Thanks for a very interesting perspective on this
and I’ll probably be adding it to my WP blog as well.

Thanks

Steve

Sharon: Cow or Chow, no matter!, there’s been a massive upsurge in installs which has prompted me to start on the new and improved version which should take care of all the little quirks that happen on some hosting platforms… check out the new post tomorrow detailing what I want to do with it.

Sorry, mistaken. I thought it was John Chow. But it was the cow…..

He can’t bug me about it anymore. Good for you!

Kelly: yes I have noticed a ripple effect with commentluv too, I’m constantly surprised by it’s reach considering I wrote it just for myself to use on this blog. There is another version of CommentLuv for Drupal now made by Pete from imafish.co.uk, he says it was relatively easy to convert it, shame about typepad being so darn difficult to handle (unless you are a perl geek!)

Andy,

I totally agree. I’ve talked about it all over the place, the fact that they’re “open” to new stuff but not seeking or helping to develop it is rather astonishing. In the last few days I just finished my struggle with their beta “RSS subscribe to comments.” Beta, now, and only as RSS? How far behind can they be?

One more site that just started using CommentLuv (did I mention it’s spreading like wildfire):
http://write-from-home.com/

All good people, too.

What I’ve noticed is that I read blogs in a few “circles” (design, writing, marketing, etc.). Once one person in a circle has got CommentLuv, within a couple of weeks it’s in 3-4 other blogs in the circle, too. It’s like a fever. Exposure to it can definitely spread it, and can cause people like me to seriously consider leaving unresponsive TypePad behind.

For now, I love it from afar (until I feel I understand how to make the switch!).

michael: it’s a good idea and I do try to keep a track of who installs the plugin with a list that updates when a ping comes in from a user who first activates it but I don’t think having a database of links to those sites is a good idea, it would act as a spammers delight directory just like the top commentators and dofollow lists. If you want to see what blogs are using it, you could use a yahoo site explorer page which shows 386,764 results! … a pretty big list to maintain!

Kelly: Hi again, I remember you. I even went so far to post a project on a freelancer board for someone to make a typepad version but not even one person responded! typepad is a platform that costs money to use so maybe they should write it themselves!

Franca: nice blog! thanks for visiting
