I have to give a short update to my previous post on the CommentLuv plugin. I installed CommentLuv to provide an automatic backlink to my commenters, and wanted to make sure it was working properly as a dofollow link.
First of all, the plugin author, Andy Bailey, showed up on his own to test the plugin, by leaving a comment on my blog, as soon as it was installed. And when I had a question about whether the nofollow tag had been removed, I sent him an e-mail. He replied within hours, and helped me figure it out. It turns out you have to install a plugin to turn off the nofollow tag. (I used NoFollow Free.)
Over the course of several e-mails and a couple of test comments, Andy made sure his plugin was working properly, on its own and with NoFollow Free. He was very friendly and good-humored. CommentLuv is a free plugin, and I did not pay for his service. Likewise, neither Andy nor anyone else has paid me for this post. Sadly, it’s becoming rare to receive excellent, personal, human service these days, and I wanted to say a big THANK YOU to Andy. Keep up the great work!
By the way, everything is working perfectly now, and when you leave a comment, you will receive a nofollow-free link back to your latest blog post. Links for everyone! (Unless your comment is spam, in which case it will be deleted.) Cheers!
WELCOME! I can't teach you how to monetize your blog, but I can offer you some mostly intelligent conversation, moderately geeky tech talk, very funny mom stories, with the occasional rant thrown in for sanity. I'm so glad you're here!

Interesting! The only place I support using the nofollow tag is in the comments, because I fear doing otherwise might attract too many spammers. Also, I wonder if it would have a negative impact on Google rank – i.e. too many outgoing, meaningless links. I’ve got to stay tuned to find out how it works for you. Thanks for sharing this!

I also have a spam-stopping plugin that seems to be doing its job on the comments. We’ll see how it goes.
I’ve seen this before, and think it’s great, although I haven’t see it work for my blog yet. Thanks for the post.
Hello there.
This feature was not parsing my site when I just left my www address. Now that I leave my feedburner address it will indeed parse my site.
That’s a tip, I guess, for IAADmin.

Thanks man!
I didn’t even realize that the links were nofollow. I’ll definitely download the plugin.
