CommentLuv has been a lot of fun, I recommend trying it. You can always uninstall it later if it doesn’t suit your need.

I’ve been wondering whether to install CommentLuv on my site. I’ll give it a try.

I should make a push for 10,000 comments.

Sweet jebus, it rocketed. I love that in 18 months its changed so much, must be doing something right. =)

Also, I’m going to email you about something semi related to commenting but that I can’t find anywhere (including the big wide interweb).

Keep up the good work. It is much appreciated.

Thanks, Eleanor. I'm about at my limit for being able to respond to every comment. I enjoy it, but it's very time consuming once traffic gets to a certain point. .-= Dave´s last blog ..Search Your Blog Network With Google Custom Search =-.

I was thinking this morning about doing a similar sweep across a few blogs I know where the content is top-flight, but low traffic. I've done that and recently had one of those people send me $60 worth of film they didn't need to feed my archaic photography habit. Not a bad return. That also reminds me, I had a first time commenter today. Already send them a personal thank you e-mail, now to go counter comment their site in hopes that it makes them a sticky commenter. .-= K.

@KP – I never thought of leaving comments like that! But it does make sense.

I was thinking this morning about doing a similar sweep across a few blogs I know where the content is top-flight, but low traffic. A little time risky for me, but it would make the authors feel good, and if they feel good, they are more inclined to continue commenting.

218 comments for 21,000 views. I’m right on track!

I’ve also seen a few people come in and leave a whole slew of on-topic comments across my site to get onto my top comments list, which is part of my early comments gathering strategy. I’ve seen larger sites have that reward get abused though, so I’m sure it won’t last in the long run.
