Are you still searching for quality blogs in the internet marketing niche to comment on? How about blogs that have the CommentLuv plug-in enabled which means you get relevant links back to your blog! That sounds like a dream come true, wouldn’t you agree?
What if I told you that I have located a list of 165 CommentLuv Enabled blogs! Not only do they have one of the best plug-ins activated but they are all active bloggers. That means none of these blogs have been abandoned and left behind.
This is how I got started commenting on other blogs. I was fortunate enough to locate a list similar to this when I first started out and not only where these blogs active but they all were high quality blogs and the owners took the time to come and visit my place as well.
I was able to start engaging with other bloggers and start building relationships with a lot of these bloggers all while I was building quality one way links!
I have been wanting to create a list like this for quite awhile now but just couldn’t ever seem to find the time. But no more worries because…
Ana Hoffman from Traffic Generation Cafe has just published an amazing list of CommentLuv enabled blogs – great resource for finding new quality blogs to comment on, build relationships, and quality one way links.
I want to personally thank Ana for all the time and effort she has put into creating this list as well as including my blog on her list. If you are still searching for more quality blogs to comment on and would like an easily accessible extensive list of wonderful blogs with PR2, PR3, PR4, PR5 and PR6 ratings, be sure and drop by Ana’s blog and check out this fabulous list.
Now let me know if this has been helpful. I’m sure we all at some point and time would like to get our hands on some type of list like this one so I’m just thankful that Ana did all the work for me. My hat is definitely off to her! So thank you Ana!
Now, enjoy the list and happy blogging everyone!

Wow a really awesome list indeed. Thanks for sharing Adrienne.
One of the reasons I’m a bit to reluctant to share a list of great blogs too quickly, is the case of it becoming another spam infested list of people mindlessly commenting, just to get a bit of link juice.
I must admit I’ve been one of those people. But now since I found so many great blogs that I actually enjoy reading, it makes me want to comment with something relevant and useful. With list like the one you’re sharing, I usually maybe pick 5-6 of those blogs, which interests me and then go from there.

Hey Allan,
That’s one of the reasons I wanted to share Ana’s post since she did go to all the trouble to actually visit every single one of them and leave a comment where they did the same in return. She also stated to not be spammy and add value to each post so we won’t come back on her and be upset because she did put such an extensive list out there so others could find quality blogs to comment on.
Allan I think we’ve all been that person in the beginning but once you start visiting blogs and realizing the value in leaving quality comments and interacting with other bloggers as well, we learn that visiting them just for traffic to our blogs become a mute point. Oh don’t get me wrong, we all want traffic but it becomes so much more. At least you and I did learn and that’s what’s really important, right!
I have no doubt you’ll find five or six really good ones that you can relate to and connect and then just go from there. So have fun going through that list. It can take you awhile!
Glad you put up this post Adrienne!
It surely would help so many others and yes when I had read Ana’s post earlier, I too was glad to have found it, as it was exactly what I was also looking for a long while! It sure must have been an uphill task for Ana to get hold of such an exhaustive list that must have taken her lots of efforts and time to create!
I wish I had CommentLuv and was on a WordPress blog- that would have added my blog on her list as well- as it is a PR3 blog. Guess I should switch to WordPress for that and getting the CommentLuv premium version sure sounds like the right thing to do as of now!
Thanks for sharing

Hi Harleena,
I’m glad you’ve already been over there and seen what she’s put together. What a list is right and how time consuming it must have been to visit 165 blogs and comment on each one and then see if they do the same. That’s very time consuming indeed. I have been wanting to do this for awhile as well so when Ana let me know I was on her list, I was floored to see what she had put together. But in the end, I didn’t have to do it myself. I was thrilled.
You can’t go wrong with a WordPress hosted blog Harleena. For one very important reason is that you own your content. With you being over at Blogger, none of what you share actually belongs to you. At any given moment, Google could decide to delete your blog with no warning and all that hard work would be gone. That’s the main reason I went with a WordPress hosted blog. On top of that, you have so much more control with the look and the function that plug-ins give you. I do hope you’ll consider it in the very near future. I would hate to see something like that happen to you. I know a few people it has happened to which is why I say that. Not a good feeling.
Have a wonderful day and a fabulous week. Thank you so much for stopping by.
I never knew such a problem was there with Bloggers! Thanks for letting me know about it Adrienne! And yes, I am just about to switch over to WordPress, just wondering which theme to choose for which blog- as I want it be a once and for all change over

September 19, 2011 at 10:34 AM
Glad to enlighten you Harleena. I know when we all get started we head to the free methods but most people don’t realize that since you aren’t paying for hosing your blog, then the service that is owns your content and can do with it whatever they choose.
Themes are fun to find and I went with free ones for a good while not really knowing how I wanted my blog to look. But once I did, I purchased Thesis and I haven’t looked back. It’s a very flexible theme and you can make it look however you want. Have fun choosing yours and I have no doubt it will look fabulous!
I do intend going in for Thesis for my writing blog, though still debating to choose something different for the family blog!
I really have no idea about the coding part to make a blog look like what we really want it to look like, so was thinking about Headway, or Catalyst. Though Genesis and Woothemes at least have samples online to have an idea, or else it becomes really tough for people like me to make out how would a theme actually turn out to be or what you can do about it to look the way you want it to.
Thanks so much for your motivation, support and encouragement Adrienne! I do learn a lot whenever I visit your blog

That’s good to hear Harleena, I love Thesis and I’m not someone who knows coding. I kind of knew what I wanted so I just Googled what I wanted to know until I found the information and it was pretty easy to follow. You can always get someone to create a theme for you too so don’t forget. You can find a lot of that information on the Thesis site itself.
I’ve never used any of the other themes you listed but I’ve also heard different things about them. Ease of use is probably up to the individual. I recall Dino writing a post over at his blog on how you could get those themes for free and test them out so you might want to go over to his archives and see what you can’t find. That might come in handy.
Glad to hear that you learn something new over here as well as receive motivation, support and encouragement. I love hearing that Harleena so thank you for saying that.
Long time no see.
I miss your blog!
Now, that’s something I am really excited about. I wanted to prepare a list like this but you know what happened. I still have the project here on my computer. I actually want to create a good list of DoFollow blogs and offer it as a bonus with a product I have in mind.
I ignored blog comment when I first started. But when you started talking about how effective it is, I’ve started implementing it. I have seen good results since then.
Believe it or not, if you implement this technique only, you’ll achieve good results even if you ignore other tactics.
I’ll go check the list now. Thanks a lot for sharing!

Hey Mouh,
I’ve missed you and I hope you’ve been able to take some time for yourself this past week. I don’t want to sound like a broken record but again, I’m so very sorry for your loss. ♥
Ah, you’ve been wanting to do this as well. I have a list put together of the blogs I follow and like but they all don’t have CommentLuv so maybe you can work from Ana’s list and that will save you a lot of trouble as well. She’s done all the work for us. That would be a great bonus with a product.
I ignored blog commenting as well in the beginning Mouh so I’m glad you were able to learn from my mistakes and start because I have seen an increase in comment over at your place so as you very well know, over time it will just continue to get better and better as long as you are consistent which you are. Your loss was something very unexpected so that couldn’t be helped but you know what I mean.
Thanks for stopping by and again, I missed you too! Welcome back!
Adrienne
Mouh, aloha. Interestingly enough, about all I did with my blog was comment because SEO is not my strong suit. Consistent commenting makes a big difference on the blog.
And, of course, the best part is you get to develop a relationship with wonderful bloggers like Adrienne.
Aloha. Janet

I wasn’t a big SEO person either Janet but commenting on blogs where they will return the favor is how you can start really getting some attention. I know that just commenting on blogs where the blog owners don’t interact very much or they just will reply to those that visit a lot is not helping the new person have a very good experience with this. This list will be very helpful for others who are looking for blogs where they are interested in building relationships. You just have that personality that everyone falls in love with which is why you became so popular so quick!
I know you are popular over here Janet!
Adrienne,
Both you and Janet are among my favorite commenters for no other reason than you are genuine and consistent. I appreciate my readers especially people like yourselves who are truly interested in building relationships.
That honesty shines through.

Thank you so much for sharing that with me Jack, I had no idea. Janet is one fine woman and to put me on the same page with her, man I’m honored. I was really under the impression that blogs were here to help build relationships but I’ve also learned that people use them for all sorts of reasons. Call me naive but I prefer the relationship building myself.
I love how you write Jack and that you are straight forward and honest about your feelings. Take me as I am or don’t take me at all. I can so relate to that.
I appreciate that Jack and I appreciate you! Thank you so much for sharing that with me.
I got kicked off the list ………
Ana came by my “Page Ranked 100″ Blog and found that I had no CommentLuv. Actually I do. However, while building the landing pages for the new launch, I noticed that the CommmentLuv was bleeding on to the pages (even though they have a setting for this). So instead of fixing yet another software bug, I just disabled the Plug-in. I’ll bring it back online right after the launch at the first of the year.
I’ve got it back on for the moment, as I have no landing pages actually up right now and I might even play around with the Plug-in a bit before I start running the landing pages in the middle of October.
However, make no mistake ….. I can and will, make the hard decisions of a Pro-Blogger and ….. and …. well …. nixx, kill, ax …..un-plug …….. my CommentLuv Plug-in!!! Apologizes to Ana ……..
As for those that are unfortunate enough to unwittingly “StumbleUpon” my Blog. Beware, I enjoy interacting with my readers not their Page-Ranks.

Rut Ro!!! Darn it Jeffrey, that was a great way to get your blog the attention it definitely deserves. But I can understand the frustrations with the plug-in bleeding over and the time it takes to repair these types of things. It’s not like that’s all you have to do day in and day out. Glad to hear you do have it on for the moment though but sad to hear that you’ll be nixxing it once again.
As I mentioned on my post about my new commenting rules, it’s your blog and you can do with it what you will. If people don’t like it, they just won’t continue to visit. But if they are there to learn from you or just enjoy the interaction then they’ll be back.
Thanks for sharing this with us! So here’s my take on this. You guys go visit Jeffrey, he’s a fun guy to interact with and really knows his stuff. Watch out, you just might learn a thing or two!

It’s a list I’ll be reverting to often that’s for sure. So glad she put this one together.
Hope you are recuperating! Welcome home!
My theme blog is also on Ana’s list, and has only been there for a couple of days. But I’ve already received traffic from the list, and it has given me some good comments.
How about you two, have you seen any change in comments or traffic not counting me.
Twitter: adriennesmith40
October 14, 2011 at 12:05 PM
That’s great news Jimmy, I’m so thrilled for you. I have seen some traffic from new bloggers who said they found me on Ana’s list. Not a ton of them but I’ll take what I can get. Hopefully they’ll stick around and want to come back.
This is great! There are two plugins that I think every single blogger should have: commontLUV and Replyme (when you reply to a comment the response gets sent to as an email and your readers dont have to remember that they left a comment and have to check back to see if you responded!).
Can’t wait to check out the list! Thanks!

I agree with your choice of plug-ins Julia. Those are two must haves for any blog. I find it hard to comment on blogs and then of course I have no idea if they responded to it until I visit the next time because I was never notified. That’s what I love about ReplyMe. It’s definitely a good one to have.
Enjoy the list, it’s a long one!

Hi Adrienne,
If you have not deleted me from your list, I would like to ask two questions:
1) How does commentluv works? I already have this installed but am not sure of the benefits.
2) Can you explain the same for keywordluv? How can this be installed?
3) Can you suggest 3 more plug-ins worth installing?
Cheers

Hey Jimmy,
Don’t worry, I’m not deleting you from my comments. I wouldn’t have approved you in the first place if that were the case.
So to answer your question, here are the shortest definitions I can come up with for now.
1) When you visit a blog that has CommentLuv enable, when you comment you can leave a link from your latest blog posts at the tail-end of your comment. Every time you leave a comment you get the opportunity to build backlinks to your own blog posts. When other people leave comments, they may see your headline and be curious as to what your post is and follow your link back over to your blog and you now have a new reader. Not only do you get backlinks but hopefully some new visitors as well.
2) When you visit a blog that has KeywordLuv enabled, all you have to do is in the field for your name use the following: name@keywords.
This will show your name in the comment and then a link to your website with your chosen keywords as anchor text. That way for blogs that don’t allow anchor text in the comment itself, you easily get it in the name field.
To install KeywordLuv on your blog, just go to Google and type in KeywordLuv and there will be plenty of sites where you can download this plug-in.
3) Besides the two I just mentioned, the three I would highly recommend at “All-in-One-SEO-Pack”, “ReplyMe” and “Top Commenters”. There are a bunch of really great plug-ins but you asked for three.
One other thing I’d like to suggest to you Jimmy is that when I go to tweet your post, your don’t have your Twitter ID connected which means you have no idea who is tweeting your posts and who isn’t. You need to get that implemented quickly. You are looking a lot of shares what way.
Hope that helped!
Hi Adrienne,
What a sigh of relief. I am still in your list. And thank you very much for the advise you have given me here. But can you explain a little more about the Twitter ID thing you mentioned here? I would like to get Twitter going and I know you have blogged about this, but I am still a little confuse how I can install Twitter into my blog and get more traffic. So you thing you can offer me a step by step approach to getting this set up? Sorry, I know I am annoying.

Hey Jimmy,
I have set up on my blog the TweetMeMe button but you have a different one set up on yours. I can share with you how to set that plug-in up and hope that the one you have is similar in nature. I explain how to add your Twitter ID to your plug-in in my post “If You Don’t Edit Your TweetMe Button Now, You’ll Hate You Later“.
Hope you find this one helpful and you are not annoying. I’m happy to help. Let me know if you need anything else.

Once again Adrienne, you have been a great help.

Thanks a log Warren and glad it was helpful! Have a fabulous week!
Well including Your’s and Anna’s (where I’m a regular reader) I stopped in at 3 others today. I’ll try and find five blogs each day I’m working to interact with other bloggers. I’ll try and make my way through the list over the next few months!

Just commented on five a day for an entire week until I found the ones I enjoyed visiting the most. From there it’s history! I’m looking forward to visiting a few of those blogs as well so I hope to see you there in the comments!
Have fun!
Adrienne, aloha. Congratulations on “making the cut” on Ana’s list. What an incredible resource this is. The other day when she posted it I quickly saved it to my computer for future browsing and meeting of new people. What fun it will be to discover new people writing amazing content.

I know she updated it because the first time I saw it I wasn’t on the list. Was kind of scratching my head as to why since I visit her blog every once in awhile and comment as well plus my blog recently got bumped back up to a PR3 after having dropped earlier this year. But since then she’s added more plus she asked us to help spread the word. You know me, might as well help others that are searching for some good blogs to comment on.
Hope you have a glorious week as well Janet. It will be very interesting to see which ones we both visit. I might not make it this week though, I have some projects on my plate that I have to get done. But soon, very soon.
Well here goes nothing, Adrienne. Using your blog as the first place I’m using KeywordLuv. Going to do some experimenting, and see if I’ll be adding to my own “home on the net” soon. Excited to see the results.
Loving this blog post put together. Will certainly be adding to my weekly link roundup. It’s just too good NOT to share isn’t it? This list could and will revolutionize the first few months for new bloggers. If they would just listen to their hearts, use the list, and share their genuine thoughts – they could have a nice little stream of traffic going in no time at all! Makes me wish I would have been commenting on blogs sooner than I was in the beginning.
Thanks for letting me use your blog as a “test” zone.

Use away Christian, use away! I’ll keep my fingers crossed that it is helpful. Maybe you’ll write a blog post about this experiment soon! I’m keeping my fingers crossed for you that you get the results you had hoped.
Finding good quality blogs where not only do they use CommentLuv, but also will come back over and comment on their blogs as well will be very helpful to the new blogger. So many of them locate blogs but find that the blog owners don’t interact with their commenters. Or they are prejudice and only reply to the ones who visit often. This list is a great resource for them if they use it properly. As Ana said, don’t spam or we may never forgive her for including us on her list!
Can’t wait to hear how your test goes! Good luck.
Hi Adrienne, Ana has put a lot of work into this list, and how she organized the blogs makes everything easy! as you said the dream come true with this great list!!

Hi Adrienne, here at last…. still puffing and panting
I have a list of blogs on mine from the 100 blog comment challenge but have recently gone through it to find many people have still not updated, from over a year ago
I now have to amend that list and remove all the dead blogs.
I also use the RSS to subscribe to my favourites, but there’s always more blogs to find and add to it.
The list of 165 blogs is extremely helpful. I’ve been over and bookmarked the list and once I’ve caught up on my Learn With Sally coaching I’ll make my way over there and start working through them. I did see a few names that I know as well as loads I don’t
It was really good of Ana to create the list, as the 350 comments there pointed out.
Thanks for bringing it to our attention Adrienne.
Have a great week my friend,

You poor thing, you had a really rough week last week. I hope it’s all been resolved now and you can get back to having fun with your blog.
I had a list as well I put out earlier this year and I had to also go back through that list because a lot of them haven’t posted since I created the list. I found that really sad really.
I think if you are ever searching for more blogs to visit or perhaps searching for some specific content, I would start with some of these blogs because I have a feeling you’ll have a better chance of finding it here then someplace else. She’s put a lot of work into this list so I applaud her for what she’s done. That was a lot of work.
Glad to see you back Barry so be sure to have a great week now.
Adrienne,
Ana’s list is a great resource to people. It is a wonderful way to meet new bloggers. Hopefully have some decent insights to share (and learn) and get a nice dofollow link here and there. Not much more you can ask for.
I have already added heaps to my feedreader since reading that article. (To make it harder to forget about these “new” sites).
Thanks for sharing this great list with your followers.
Have a great day,
Steve

Hey Steve,
You are so right, this is a great list and will be very helpful to anyone just searching for new blogs to comment on. It’s a wonderful way to meet new bloggers and what I love most is interacting with them and learning as I go. But the link juice is really nice too!
I won’t lie!
I appreciate your comment and glad you’ve been able to check out her list as well. Now I have to find the time to check out more of those blogs!
I will be sure to have a really great day Steve and hope you do the same.
Adrienne
Seeing this blog entry all over twitter in the last few minutes, which isn’t surprising, a list like that can be valuable. Looks like Ana’s site isn’t ready to cope though, her entire site is down at the moment.

This is a great list! Oh no, her site took a hit for it. Now guess who has made it big time!
I feel for her though. Hope she’s able to get it resolved soon. So, be sure to stop back by there. You won’t regret it! 
Wicked list! Definitely going to have to dig deeper in to this one.
Thanks for sharing

Oh you are going to have some fun over there Brock! Watch out. Don’t find too many you love better than over here!
But seriously, Ana did a fabulous job and I have a feeling you are going to meet even more amazing people. Have fun!

Ah, you are too kind my friend too kind!
Thanks for this list Adrienne! I have been searching for some other like-minded bloggers to network with. I will be checking out some of the blogs on the list. I also just started visiting Ana’s blog. Lots of great information over there as well. Finding the right folks to interact with is important because many people are out to be spammy; the important part is to add to the conversation. BTW, I also LOVE Thesis, it’s such a versatile Wordpress theme.

You are most welcome Justin!
I have a feeling you are going to find exactly what you are searching for over on Ana’s list. She is always adding such value over there and I am just thankful she had the time to put together such an extensive list.
I love Thesis as well, have been using that theme for several years now. It’s a really great theme to have.
Now before I sign off Justin, I want you to check out my post “My New Commenting Rules“. You need to get that avatar set up correctly or a lot of the blogs you start visiting are not going to accept your comment. I’ve got some stiff rules about that too. Just wanted you to beware.
Thanks again and have a great day!
Hi Adrienne,
Thanks for sharing the list of blogs that have commentluv. I’m always looking for new blogs to check and to develop relationships with. Great job my friend

Hey Dia,
My pleasure since I didn’t actually do all the work this time. Just so thrilled Ana put this one together. I’m going to have a good time myself going through them all. Can you imagine the content we are going to be able to find here? I’m excited!
Thanks for stopping by. Always a pleasure my friend.
Hi Adrienne,
Thank you so much for sharing this list with us! You always provide such useful and helpful information. I was just thinking this morning about blogs that may use CommentLuv, and then I came across your post.Very timely. I use it on my blog too and love it; love to be able to provide a little Luv back.

I do my best, that’s for sure. I was hoping to put this list together but Ana saved me the trouble. And what a list it is. If you need to find quality blogs to comment on, there you go. I have a feeling she didn’t leave any stone unturned either.
Have fun Sarah!

You both obviously are like minded individuals.
Once again, congrats Adrienne!

I can only imagine the time it took for her to visit all those blogs and make sure they are still active and come back and comment. That is a time consuming process so I’m glad she did that. I have a list of about 75 so I just stopped after seeing that Ana did all that work. Boy am I ever glad.
Thank Linda and enjoy checking out the blogs.
Adrienne
Just what I need, more incredible bloggers to check out; will you read them for me and craft some comments and send them to me via e-mail so I can cut and paste? In fact I will just give you my password – BR549 to my site and feel free to go direct.
So, are you saying you and Carolyn are on the list? That’s pretty cool but deservedly so. Congrats………
Thanks for sharing this info and sorry for delay. My reader has been clogged up and I needed to buy some Drane-O……….:)

And it’s a l-o-n-g list too Bill. Luckily for us, we already know a few on that list so you can skip a few.
I was kind of hoping you could get back to me with that list of comments. Darn it, I have to go first!
Me, Carolyn, Jens, Ileane, Mavis, Benny, Mitch, Peggy, just to name a few. Yep, was pleasantly surprised.
I know the feeling. I got up early to get to work and had no internet connection. Just never fails!
Hi Adrienne,
I did not quite make it onto the list. Well to be truthful I was quite a long way off, with my little blog only having a PR of 1
But Ana does do her job well in giving us a whole lot of content, learning and just generally being a great blogger!

Hi Adrienne,
Creating this commentluv list was one incredible feat. My hat is off to Ana and to you for posting the list link on your site. I have found so many cool blogs because of reading comments that have CommentLuv.
Take Care.

You and I might be in even more trouble Justin after going through this list and finding even more blogs we are eager to visit. CommentLuv sure makes it great for following people around but Ana has made sure that these blogs are quality and that the blog owners interact with their commenters. We both know how important that is for us.
Thansk for sharing the list, Adrienne !
I was suprised to be included, my blog is two lines before yours…
A very nice list of premium blogs there !

Rock on, I always like link juice.
I’m sure you’ve covered this somewhere, but I’m new to the site so I thought I’d ask here. Don’t you lose link juice from your site by having dofollow links? is it really worth it?

Hey Fred,
You can loose link juice if you allow a lot of low PR sites link to yours that are not relevant to your blog. That’s why it’s important to pay attention to who you are allowing to comment on your blog and get link juice from you. Does that make any sense?
Yeah that does. I thought it was ANY links that are outgoing from your site automatically take a portion of your juice.
I stopped learning about SEO awhile ago though. Time to dive back into it, methinks!
I’m gonna try that premium CommentLuv keyword thing on this comment.

You just help other people in the eyes of Google which is why it’s important to watch out who you allow to comment with what links. In the beginning we are just thrilled someone left a comment and it takes awhile for all of us to learn what is good and what isn’t.
I did too to be honest with you. Shame on us both right! I have been diving back into it myself here lately so I continue to be a work in progress. At least I’m headed in the right direction!
So when you put your name in the comment box, use the @ and then put your main keyword. It’s the equivalent of putting anchor text in the comment section which we all know the majority of us don’t allow. That’s what makes keywordLuv so great.
Happy testing Fred!
I Love CommentLuv. I bought the CommentLuv Premium Plugin on the first day it launched. It is Truly Amazing. I Highly recommend CommentLuv Premium to all blog owners.

Commentluv is a great commenting system for increasing engagement on a site. Feel free to add my site to that list

Thanks Adam, I’ll be making a note of all the people who are sharing with me that they now have this fabulous plug-in on their blogs now too.
Someone gave me your name a while back and then I randomly found your blog today. So I don’t really understand the difference between Keyword Luv and Comment Luv. Both are ok right?

When you leave a comment and that blogger has Keyword love in place then you are allowed to put your name plus the keyword you are trying to rank for down. The blogs with keyword love activated allow this where blogs without it don’t.
CommentLuv is when you put your blog, youtube channel/video or website where the comment box is asking for your URL. That way when you leave a comment and include a link, people will see the title of you latest post, video or site and if it peaks their interest they will follow your link back to your place and you now have a brand new visitor. If you have a blog, you hope your content will keep them coming back for more.
Did that help?
Thank you for this incredible possibility of having all these resources in our hands. It’s helpful and spare us a lot of time. Thank you, Adrienne!!!

Hi! I realize this is sort of off-topic but I had to ask. Does building a well-established website such as yours take a large amount of work? I am brand new to writing a blog but I do write in my journal on a daily basis. I’d like to start a blog so I will be able to share my personal experience and thoughts online. Please let me know if you have any kind of recommendations or tips for new aspiring bloggers. Appreciate it!

Hi Jaclyn,
Getting anything established does call for quite a bit of work. I am in the process of writing my next post which will cover everything I did to get my blog the recognition that it currently has. So if you’d like to come back on Thursday and read that one, I’m sure you’ll find it extremely helpful. After that if you have any more questions I’ll be more than happy to answer them.
If you have a passion that you would like to share in blog posts then I say go for it Jaclyn. Because to me, that’s not hard work. It’s actually quite enjoyable. But we’ll talk more later.
Thanks for stopping by and hope you’re having a really great week.
Happy New Year!
Just wanted to say thanks! I would have never found this amazing list without you. Wishing you well in the new year.

And I certainly couldn’t take credit for putting this together myself. I was going to but you saved me the work so thank you Ana again for this list.
You are most welcome and my pleasure…
Thanks for sharing this list, some very useful information a great help. No doubt that delivering quality comment on DO follow blogs gives link juice to you website.

Hey Veena,
Congratulations, I see you got your gravatar all set up and didn’t even need my help. That’s great news in itself.
I’m doing okay, had a very very very rough week. Have just been taking some time to myself.
Hope you find Ana’s list helpful… Be sure and read my Engagement Superstar post where I share with you how to comment on other people’s blog so that you can start getting some interaction going and get people to visit you more often. I think you’ll find it helpful.
Thanks for this list Adrienne! How many keywords would you recommend we use with this list? I’m tyring to understand if commenting on the same site but with a different keyword will do any good since I know alexa only counts 1 comment.
Would a different keyword change that fact?
Thanks!

Hi Kim,
I’m not sure what you mean. If you are searching for blogs in your niche then you would use whatever keywords and then search for blogs. Other than that, if these particular blogs have Keyword Luv attached and those are allowed then they will only allow a few words. You’ll have to check each individual blog for that Kim.
Hope that was what you were looking for.
Thanks for commenting and have fun!
Thanks for letting us know about this. I think the toughest thing about commenting on other people’s blogs is that sometimes these blogs change to no follow or they just stop approving comments at all. So the key is to keep updating the list and making sure its current.

Thanks for your comment.
