Encourage comments with CommentLuv

As I’ve mentioned before, one of the main reasons for switching to wordpress is the vast amount of plugins available.  They are limitless and there are so many.  But which ones do you use?  CommentLuv is one I really like.  Everyone loves comments on their blog, right?  Well why not encourage your readers to leave a comment on your blog, so that a link to their most recent post will show up, and perhaps your comments will go show them some CommentLuv.

When you have this plugin installed, people who leave a comment on your blog, will automatically get a link to their most recent posts.  They don’t have to do anything, and neither do you, for this to appear.  Outside of installing the plugin of course.  Easy peasy!

Don’t know how you install plugins?  That’s really easy to!  Here’s how:

Login to your wordpress dashboard.
Find the plugin that you’d like to use from the WordPress Plugins directory.
Download the file using the orange download button.
In your WP dashboard, click the arrow next to Plugins.
Click add new.
Then upload.
Upload the zipped file directly to your site.
Once installed, click Plugins.
Find the plugin you just installed and hit Activate.
Thats it.

Depending on the plugin, you may have some configuration to do, but you’ll just follow the steps on the installation page. You also want to only install 1 plugin at a time, just in case a plugin interferes with your wordpress theme. If this were to happen, simply deactivate the plugin causing issue.
