Having not posted on Pingable for some time, I have decided to restart my new posting schedule with an announcement that I have enabled two plugins KeywordLuv and Do follow. These plugins are to encourage comments from other bloggers and web masters.
For those who don’t know
Do follow means comments left on this blog give you a backlink to your site. This will help you improve search engine rankings.
KeywordLuv is a plugin with allows you to stuff your backlink with keywords which you are trying to rank in search engines with.i.e. If you write about “Making Money”, If you leave as your name, Simon@Making Money your backlink will say comment Simon from “Make Money” with make money as the hyperlink.
Both these plugins are to help readers improve the search engine ranking of their sites.
Comment Policy
I am happy as Larry to provide keyword rich backlinks to anyone who leaves a comment, however, the comments must add something to the post and be meaningful.
I will remove any links where posts are not adding to the post. I will also remove links to any porn, Viagra or other dodgy sites.
Fred from Best Money Market Accounts
I luv the keywordluv plugin. This plugin allows the commentator to announce himself while still getting an anchored link. Thank Simon!!
Archie Pennies from Work from home
Hey! Glad to have you back! I hope everything is ok
I decided to do follow when I started my blog a month or two ago. Yet I have been hit really hard by spam bots and spammmy trackbacks luckily Akismet takes care of them. By the way since I really like you posts I would like to include your blog in my blog roll just email me with the Anchor Text you would like to appear.
Simon
Hi Archie, yes everything is ok. Everything is great. I just haven’t had time to write new posts for this blog in a while. I have just renewed the domain for another 12 months, so I will be sticking around for a while yet. We just bought a new house, and got engaged, so I have been real busy. I have also been focusing what time I have online on other projects which are making more much more money than this blog…actually the truth is…only one post on this blog is actually profitable. The rest of the site hardly makes a cent. Sad but true. Anyway thanks for stopping by. I will send you an email about your blog roll when I am done typing here. Cheers.
Fiscal from chismes farandula tv colombia
I hear you about sites hardly making a cent. We are doing adsense and strangely enough our earnings have decreased over 75% while traffic has actually increased. We are in the process of talking to advertisers about possible sponsorships; adsense ads just don’t cut it anymore. I guess it has to do with the fact that it may be hard to match up advertisements with our niche. In your case, I hear that us, you, me, ‘web workers’, don’t click much on ads at all so you may have to look at affiliate programs and sponsorships may also be a good idea for you.
I know this is somewhat off-topic but hopefully you will find it useful.
Simon
Adsense does well on pages that get a lot of organic search traffic. Thats why I only have it on certain posts on this blog. But you are right about people in this Niche not clicking on ads. I wouldn’t even consider running adsense site wide again. Sponorship is great if you can find good sponsors. I haven’t had any luck. And I have hardly made a cent out of the 125 pixel bad banners from running affiliate ads.

CommentLuv is catching on, but I’ve noticed that KeywordLuv is taking a bit longer…
Ryse from Rocket Chinese Review
I’m really liking this KeywordLuv plugin. Having the ability to use your name and still get an anchored link is such a nice feature. It makes the comments look better while still rewarding the readers with some “luv”
mike from telemarketing services
glad to see you use this plug-in… its been badly needed for some time. now both sides win!
geri from A Mesa SEO
We use Akismet spam filter,and monitor all blog comments.We also have a very extensive list of Do Follow blogs and now we’ve added forums.
gwen from Dust Collecting
Do Follow now KeywordLuv this makes linking so… nice Thanks for sharing.
search agent
First of all, thanks. Internet marketing guys are always looking for a quality place to leave a comment that will add strength to their site for certain key words.No one knows how Google ranks sites but strong back links is probably the number one factor in the ranking.
I have treid to disable my own nofollow command on my blog. I followed all the instructions but did not disable the feature. I also wanted many people to place comments.
Andrea from Large-Size Women's Shoes
I’m still trying to learn about DoFollow, Seo and all the other technical stuff that will help increase my page rank and traffic on my large-size shoe blog. Will KeywordLuv work on Blogger blogs as well?
Simon
Hi Andrea, no I am not aware of a keywordluv plugin for blogger, however, there are no follow blogger options.
Louise from New Orleans Recipes
I’m thinking about adding CommentLuv to my site but have heard it can be a strain on your database. KeywordLuv seems to be a “lighter” application so I may try that one first.
Brian from Google Nemesis
Keyword Luv looks like a fantastic plugin, I have many sites that are based on the popular wordpress platform and love the power and flexibility. Thanks for enabling do follow links
Brian
Suresh from UK Surveys
I love the plugin but the only down point is it takes more time to load
RT Cunningham from Do Follow, CommentLuv and KeywordLuv Blog List
Awesome, Simon! I’ve added this blog to my list. Sorry it took so long…
Susan from Wordpress Themes
I think it’s a great wordpress plugin, probably better than CommentLuv.
Gert Hough from 1000 Free Back Links
I would like to say: YES and NO.
CommentLuv gives to back links as well as promote the latest blog post.
KeywordLuv gives a more specified back link but it is still only one…
Dan from life coaching derby
This is a great move – I use the keywordluv plugin on my own blog and it’s proved to be a real hit with my regular readers. People like to be able to make quality, meaningful comments and be rewarded with an actual link. To me, this is the future for blogging.
Thanks for adding it, Dan.
jason from best internet casino
installing luv comment and keywordluv is the two greatest things i’ve done to my blog. It helped increase traffic my blog and traffic increased 3folds! Amazing isn it. I’m sure you’ll be a great success!
Tracy from Austin DWI Lawyer
By installing this plugin, you are really giving back to the blogging community. Thanks!
Bonx
Wow, this is a great plugin, and thanks for posting about it. I even like the way it formats the names of your commentators–it looks good AND encourages people to respond. My only concern is loading time, but it appears negligible from seeing it on your site.
Thomas from Cyprus Villa Rental
This plug-in is simply fantastic. Thanks for illustrating it so well in a great blog!
Riggie from internet business coaching
Simon,
I use the KeywordLuv plug-in on my blog too, and I get a lot of response due to the plug-in.
If more blog owners would adopt the plug-in, we could all get more links to our blogs and sites…
-Riggie
Claudia
It looks like a great plugin. Will it work on Wordpress 2.6?
Jon from Beauty Salon Marketing
Thanks for the useful post, and debate in the comments. There are pros and cons to KeywordLuv and CommentLuv. For me, CommentLuv has a slight advantage as it provides a deep-link to a blog post, as well as a general link to the homepage. Assuming you have keywords in your post-titles, you get the best of both.
Just my two cents! Jon
EJ from Busby SEO Challenge
NIce plug in but this can be a source of spamming on blog sites. I Hope there qould come up like moderation tool as well. thanks
Simon
I get over 150 spam messages a day, as I have been no follow since the start, and I am list as no follow on many lists etc. Spam gets caught. What pisses me off when people write 4 word “thanks for the info” type comments for a backlink. I delete them, I expect people to at least go to the effort of adding to a topic if they want a keyword rich backlink.
Blogging and Traffic tips
This is so cool. I was actually looking for the keywordluv plug in. BUt does it work on blogger blogs?
Jesse from Digital Converter Box Reviews
Thank you for the “Do Follow” links. I think that there are many people out there that are freely commenting on blogs and could use a link in return at the same but. I figure you might and well give/get both at the same time instead of being uptight about it.
It is to bad that spammers have some what ruined this for honest individuals that are simply posting and figure they should get some keyword authority and link love in the process. Knock out 2 birds with one stone.
Rowland
What I want to do on my blog, is every few hours take the oldest post and move it to the i would be glad if u visit my Artikelverzeichnis. but u need understood german
Robin
Thanks – we are currently looking into ways to get better visibility with the engines (especially google). I know links are the way – but, not always the easiest to get.
I’ll check out KeywordLuv and Do follow.
Karlonia from Money Quotes
Although I have not yet gotten the KeywordLuv plugin to work, my blog at Karlonia.com is DoFollow for comments.
I just discovered the KeywordLuv plugin (great idea!) earlier today, but sadly my theme seems to be incompatible. This probably doesn’t matter much, however; people seem to be doing a good enough job of putting their keywords in the name field anyway
Boston Wedding DJ
This plugin is great, it’s hard having a a blog that is getting comments but all the names are keywords, just looks spammy.
chetan from blogging resources
Efforts like this surely affect the number of comments you recieve. I have observed this affect to be very good. And I hope this turns to be good for you too.
Newklear Surfer from Sepatu Lukis
I really “luv” this plugin. Give an advantage to both visitor who leave their comment and the blog owner.
really nice plug in Thanks…
Angel from FujifilmFinepix
That’s really cool plugin, very helpful. Since, I’m a new player in internet business especially blogging, …emm you know… need more backlinks to rank well. Better get start soon…hopefully the result will be good.
blog earner
i love this plug in! I am very new to this money making scheme and I’ve learned that earning backlinks from high authority blogs to have page ranks. i searched the net about it and happen to stumble upon your site. very helpful. thanks!
Alex from Jewellery
Just trying how it works. Sounds nice.
PPR Fantasy Football Cheat Sheets
I agree, the plugin makes comments look so much better. I am definitely going to give KeywordLuv a shot.
Thanks for pointing it out!
James from BarkTop
Thank you for letting me know of this plugin, I will try it out and see how everyone likes it!
José from Diets Wonder
Thanks for this “KeywordLuv” post!
Have you ever thought about adding a a “u comment i follow” badge?
I think it helps alot more for readers to keep leaving comments on each post you make.
Just my 2 cents

RandyBrown
Nice Site. I am new here but will be visiting more often as you have done a good job.
Thanks
peter from Peter Answers
If they were giving away awards for best Wordpress plugin I would have to give serious consideration to KeywordLuv. Great idea!
latif from Making Money Online
its a generous step. Commentluv is a reasonable way of promoting keyword and still owner knows the name of commentator. This is a great development and hope many bloggers will join this move. I am trying to implement it in my own “blogger” blog. Thanks.
Smith from Western vs Alternative Medicine
this plug-in really Great!!!! wonderful
and thank U to someone who make this plugin …
linkback from website with pagerank 1-5 or maybe 6-8 (i dunno maybe…umm I never found weblog with PR8 until now) become much much easier…
Thanks
dolapo from web design nigeria
Here’s another win win situation i guess. You get reasonable comments and reward with do follow link for their site.
lisa from Gourmet Food Gift Baskets
It is interesting, but it seems to me as though comment quality is actually better on KeywordLuv blogs. That’s counter intuitive, but I think it is becuase people leaving such comments understand the symbiatic relationship between link building and blog owner and have more respect than you standard spammer.
