Don't you just luv this post?... Then share it!

CommentLuv Premium has finally opened for business and here’s a quick rundown to help you decide whether it’s a good choice for your blog, plus my personal settings to maximize its performance.

Why CommentLuv Premium?

Just in case you’ve lived in an online vacuum for the past couple of months and haven’t heard all the buzz surrounding CommentLuv Premium, here are some posts to bring you up to speed:

Take a look at the features and how I use them to make the best of using this plugin on my blog.

Find some great tips on how to use CommentLuv to generate traffic and/or build links effectively. I promise you won’t find these strategies anywhere else.

More CommentLuv Resources

Here are 3 great ways to find CommentLuv enabled blogs:

  1. CommentLuv Enabled Blog List – my very own blog list I use to comment on other CL-enabled blogs and generate links and traffic back to my blog.
  2. DropMyLink.com - a great search tool by Chris Fong of MisterFong.com. It now allows you to search for CommentLuv Premium enabled blogs; just choose “CommentLuv Premium” from the drop-down menu.
  3. Official CommenLuv Search Engine – well, it’s not entirely official yet, since it’s still in beta, but Andy Bailey is working to make this the most thorough search tool for CommentLuv enabled blogs. As a reader of my blog though, you now have official access to it (don’t you feel lucky?).

CommentLuv Premium Settings

Judging by the amount of questions I get on how to set up CommentLuv properly (Ana’s way, I mean), many current CommentLuv Premium owners aren’t using the plugin to get the maximum benefit out of it.

Whether you are the current lucky user of CommentLuv Premium or will shortly become one (don’t wait too long – Andy will close the opportunity to purchase the plugin within a few days), these tips are for you.

CommentLuv Premium Giveaway Winner

Many of you know that I’ve been running a CommentLuv Premium Giveaway on my blog and today is the day when I announce the lucky winner of the best plugin of the year, plus a free 30-min consultation with me.

…Just got back from tallying up the numbers and here’s a surprising thing: even though my CommentLuv Premium giveaway post got over 200 comments, only 13 bloggers have actually entered the giveaway!

One in 13 – chances don’t get much better than that.

Troy from http://cubedwellerfitness.com/ – you are the lucky #12! I’ll be contacting you shortly to get your details and schedule our 30-min consultation.

By the way, many have asked me what I use to choose winners for my giveaways.

There are many ways you can go, including some free WP plugins, but in this particular case I used www.Random.org (also a free tool).

CommentLuv Premium Takeaway

Sure I’d love for you to buy CommentLuv Premium from me and make all my financial dreams come true…

However, I truly want you to buy it for YOU and the potential it has to take your business to the next level.

Ana,

Really appreciated the video in this post. I just picked up CommentLuv Premium and was a little befuddled by all the settings.
Thank you for sharing yours. I’ve set mine up just like yours with the exception of adding the DoFollow to the links since my blog is pretty small and it’s pretty easy for me to keep track of everything right now.
Other than that, everything is like you have set up on yours.
Your site has become a great resource for me and I look forward to every new post you put up.
Thanks again!

Ana Hoffman November 25, 2012 at 10:19 pm

Always happy to help, Kevin.

I just bought CommentLuv premium. I went through all Andie’s videos setting it up but it was really worthwhile to check how you have set it up.

You mentioned that you have not enable do follow under commentluv but you suggest low comments site do. I am not sure why this gives you problems when you have many commentors. Is it because if dilution?

The other tip I liked is to only focus on incentivicing people who share your posts. Great idea.

Ana Hoffman August 29, 2012 at 8:21 am

Yes, Johan; when you have as many comments as I do, you are more likely to run into 404 not found issues, websites being down, sold, turning into article directories, you name it.

When whatever you link out to becomes a bad neighborhood, you might run into trouble with Google.

And yes, it might be diluting your page authority.

Johan Horak August 29, 2012 at 8:52 am

Thanks for the comment. Should I rather not enable do follow under commentluv? I prefer to be on the safe side of the Google Dragon ;-)

Ari Herzog January 24, 2012 at 10:01 am

Thanks for sharing those links, Ana. I installed Comluv Premium last night — months after not using CL at all, but being a former user of the plugin.

Ana Hoffman January 24, 2012 at 6:49 pm

Welcome back, Ari!

Noel Addison December 9, 2011 at 2:21 am

Great tutorial Ana! Commentluv is a great tool for many bloggers.

I miss the launch discount. I guess I was slow making the purchase decision. Do you think they will have another upcoming discount? $97 for Dev License is a little bit too much for my budget for now.

By the way, do you think it’s a must-have plugin for my niche sites? I wanna get people like and share my niche site posts. Thanks!

KC

Ana Hoffman December 4, 2011 at 11:47 am

I don’t think Andy is planning on offering any more discounts on CommentLuv, Kent.

I just got back from your site. I think it’s great that you are using the free version, but I think you need to get your traffic numbers up before you can really take advantage of the paid version.

Scott November 28, 2011 at 9:54 am

Ana,

I just ordered CommentLuv Premium from your site. I am pretty pumped as to what this will do for me!

Thanks for explaining all of this. You have such an AWESOME site!

Scott

Ana Hoffman November 28, 2011 at 12:20 pm

Thank you, Scott!

Please remember to email me your transaction details so that I can get you your $10 rebate.

Anne Lyken-Garner November 26, 2011 at 1:29 am

Thanks for this, Ana. It was very helpful to me and I’ve now done it (based on your instructions, to my blog).
BTW, you asked for the transaction ID for that purchase. Here it is: 912371932K234853U

Thanks again for all your help.

Ana Hoffman November 26, 2011 at 8:44 am

Thanks for the info, Anne.

I’ll send you the “rebate” as soon as Andy pays me.

When you have a minute (and you don’t have to approve this comment because it has a link) you can check to see how it looks at this blog: (http://) ourdiyprojects.net

Jake November 22, 2011 at 1:55 am

Thanks for your post. But there’s one thing I don’t quite understand much about CommentLuv. That is there’s nothing attached to my post anytime I give a comment. I don’t have CommentLuv or what?

Ana Hoffman November 22, 2011 at 10:59 am

As long as you have an RSS feed, Jake, your posts should show up for CL links.
