You can get your own content published on this site as long as you have CommentLuv installed on your site.

Doing so means you get exposure to thousands and thousands of other CommentLuv users and your posts get sent out to the massive subscriber list.

Google loves this site and indexes it multiple times per day and posts always get lots of comments so you can be sure of some excellent exposure.

See the Write For Us page for more details

btw.. you can get this author box here

In a bid to combat spam and trackback spam, I have installed a new plugin available to all blogs on The ComLuv Network. It’s called Auto-close and allows every blog owner to set the maximum period a post or page can receive comments.

I used to get an awful lot of spam comments on posts that were waaaay deep and posted long ago, so I have it activated on my FiddyP blog and it’s working fine for now. I’ll see how it goes and see if there’s a better solution than just closing all the comments, maybe showing the existing comments and not accepting new ones would be better.

What do you think about closing comments on old posts? completely close or send new ones to the moderation queue after a certain amount of time?

Instructions

1

autoclosepluginspage

/> Visit the plugins page in your dashboard and activate the plugin by clicking the “activate” link on the right side of the box.

2

autocloseconfig
Go to settings on the left sidebar and select “auto-close” to view the settings page and enter the number of days you want to keep a post open for comments. You need to check the box for close comments on posts for it to take effect.

The first time you set it up, you can set it to run once per day at a time you specify and then you can click “save options and run once”.

If you want to open up comments and trackbacks again (if you use a new plugin to control comments) then click the “open comments” and “open page” buttons to open them up to comments and display the existing ones again.
