CommentLuv

A WordPress plugin that helps commenters promote their own blogs.

Yesterday, while following up on a pingback — I get a ton of pingback spam from sploggers — I discovered a legitimate link to an article on my blog. (Imagine that!) I decided to thank the author of the post linked to mine with a comment. So I filled in the comment form and clicked the submit button. And here’s what I saw in her blog:

CommentLuv in Action

Note the last line. It includes the name of and a link to the most recent post on my blog (when the comment was posted). How cool is that?

I searched Google and found CommentLuv. This incredibly easy to install WordPress plugin gets dropped in your Plugins folder and activated from within the Plugins administration panel. That’s it. From that point forward, anyone who posts a comment and includes a link to their blog will have their most recent blog entry, pulled off their RSS feed, included as a link with the comment.

So I included it on my blog. Try it out now by posting a Comment using the link or form below.
