Blogging Advice : Do You Use Multiple Commenting System PlugIn?

Postby cmoneyspinner » 17 Jun 2020, 20:42

We all know that if a visitor comes to your blog and they see a lot of active commenting, they usually want to hang around to see what's going on. Active comments attract readers. They hang around to read the post and they hang around longer to read the comments. If the comments left behind are SEO friendly that adds even more value to your blog's content.

Have you ever visited a blog and scrolled down to leave a comment and the Comments box allows you to choose your profile? You can click Anonymous OR you can choose your social media profile, usually Twitter, Facebook and/or LinkedIn OR use your Disqus profile OR you can use your name, an eMail, and a site URL. Pick one of those profiles and leave your comments.

I love to visit a blog that has those types of Comments boxes. I think they're neat! Although I never use them at my blogs. When I was a newbie blogger, I tried to use them but for some reason they didn't work AT my blogs. I have shared a few examples below of my experiences. In the end, I settled on using whatever Comments plugin came with the template that I was using.


* First example: TUMBLR

When I first started creating my Tumblr blogs many of the free templates allowed you to use the Disqus Comments plugin. Maybe nobody else had this problem but whenever I tried to use that plugin, it wouldn't LOAD! And there was this message apologizing if you were experiencing problems with loading. I gave up!

My alternative? Some of the free Tumblr templates offer the Facebook Comments plugin. I use that plugin and it works like magic! The comments appear at my blog and I can click a button so that the same comments appear on my Facebook profile or my business page timeline. I use the plugin to share my posts via Facebook.

If Facebook users who are or are not Tumblr bloggers, visit my Tumblr blog and want to leave comments they can use the plugin the same way I do.

I settled for this because after years of using this platform, I finally realized the folks on Tumblr don't leave a lot of comments anyway.


* Second example: BLOGSPOT

Based on my experience I have found it's easier to use the Comments plugin that comes with whatever Blogger template I am using.

I know they have plugins but the installation process is too complicated for me.


* Third example: WORDPRESS

WordPress is the coolest because they have several Comments plugins that are easy to install. I no longer have a WordPress blog and even when I did have one I just used the Comments box that came with the template because it was super easy! Why make things complicated?


MY CONCLUSION:

To be honest, most of the people who leave Comments at my blogs are friends of mine. So there is really no reason for me to make a big deal about which Comments plugin to use.

However, if your blog is getting a lot of traffic and your content makes people want to leave comments, then you should look into the different plugins because when you make it easy for a visitor to leave comments, they have a tendency to keep coming back to your blog because they like leaving comments. If your blog is monetized with Ad Sense, Infolinks, or similar advertisers, then your blog will generate a steady income stream.


MY RECOMMENDATIONS:

Some people want to choose to publish via Blogger instead of WordPress. However they want their readers to have the option to leave comments using various profiles (Facebook, Disqus, etc.) If you are skilled enough to know how to Edit your Blogger template, then I recommend this article written by Heeren Tanna, a Digital Marketing Consultant, where he shows you exactly how to Install Multiple Comment System like Wordpress In Blogger.

If you publish your blog via WordPress you can choose from lots of different Comments plugins. Check out this list of The Seven Best Commenting Plugins for WordPress (2020). Out of the 7 plugins suggested on this list I prefer the CommentLuv and Disqus plugins. They are fantastic!

That is a wonderful advice !! Do you write such stuff on Blogspot as well? I think this information could be very handy for regular bloggers. Here it seems to have been ignored so far!

That's a very good advice, especially to newbies who have jut started blogging with a view to monetize it, to add multiple commenting system Plugin. As you have mentioned, any blog which has lots of active commenting will always be attractive to a new visitor. Sadly, I am not much into blogging, as I feel I do not have the required skills and resources to be a successful blogger.
