The ‘follow’ plugin seems to be a great way to facilitate commenting and discussion on your site. If follow links provide enough incentive for people to join the conversation, I’m all for it. I will certainly look in to it.

[...] Plan these articles out and start posting them in October. Every Thanksgiving the searches for Turkey recipes goes through the roof. Searches for gift ideas, depression, the homeless, holiday travel and Charity go through the roof as well. Plan now to be at the top of the Search Engine rankings and take advantage of these and many other search phrases. All it takes is a few well written articles and plenty of backlinks! [...]

You give some really great and concise information on how to get attention to your blog. You should check out the PostieCon in Las Vegas. It is a bunch of pro-bloggers sharing, for free, their knowledge and ideas.
Great blog – enjoyed reading it.

Hey Derrich,

No, the blogs I’m talking about are all Blogger blogs and all of the comments are “nofollow”.

Glad to see that internal linking is working to get your pages out of Google Supplemental rankings.

I too click on names in my comment section, like when I clicked on your name and visited your site. Nice blog and very informative!

Great points. First of all, I definitely click on links to commenters that make positive, useful contributions to a post. I never visit spammenters unless, of course, they make me laugh. But that’s a different story altogether.

Regarding “Backlinks”, I might be one of those bloggers you’re referring to. I have the Link Love plugin on my blog. After 5 comments, the “nofollow” is removed. However, I’ve already removed that tag from regulars and from comments I deem to be helpful and thought out…without the 5 comment “waiting period”.

And finally, I agree with you that Google loves blogs. Google loves content hence Google loves blogs. I’m hoping your experiment is a success. I’ve done exactly that — link to old posts internally — and doing so has rescued most of those posts from certain Google death.
