CommentLuv Premium Settings: How to Get Your Readers to Fall in Luv with You

Last Updated on March 21, 2017

Don't you just luv this post?… Then share it!

CommentLuv Premium has finally opened for business and here's a quick rundown to help you decide whether it's a good choice for your blog, plus my personal settings to maximize its performance.

Why CommentLuv Premium?

Just in case you've lived in an online vacuum for the past couple of months and haven't heard all the buzz surrounding CommentLuv Premium, here are some posts to bring you up to speed:

  • CommentLuv Premium Tour

Take a look at the features and how I use them to make the best of using this plugin on my blog.

  • How to Milk CommentLuv for All It’s Worth

Find some great tips on how to use CommentLuv to generate traffic and/or build links effectively. I promise you won't find these strategies anywhere else.

More CommentLuv Resources

Here are 3 great ways to find CommentLuv enabled blogs:

  1. CommentLuv Enabled Blog List - my very own blog list I use to comment on other CL-enabled blogs and generate links and traffic back to my blog.
  2. DropMyLink.com - a great search tool by Chris Fong of MisterFong.com. It now allows you to search for CommentLuv Premium enabled blogs; just choose “CommentLuv Premium” from the drop-down menu.
  3. Official CommenLuv Search Engine - well, it's not entirely official yet, since it's still in beta, but Andy Bailey is working to make this the most thorough search tool for CommentLuv enabled blogs. As a reader of my blog though, you now have official access to it (don't you feel lucky?).

CommentLuv Premium Settings

Judging by the amount of questions I get on how to set up CommentLuv properly (Ana's way, I mean), many current CommentLuv Premium owners aren't using the plugin to get the maximum benefit out of it.

Whether you are the current lucky user of CommentLuv Premium or will shortly become one (don't wait too long - Andy will close the opportunity to purchase the plugin within a few days), these tips are for you.

CommentLuv Premium Takeaway

Sure I'd love for you to buy CommentLuv Premium from me and make all my financial dreams come true…

However, I truly want you to buy it for YOU and the potential it has to take your business to the next level.

    Thanks for sharing those links, Ana. I installed Comluv Premium last night — months after not using CL at all, but being a former user of the plugin.

    Great tutorial Ana! Commentluv is a great tool for many bloggers.

    I miss the launch discount. I guess I was slow making the purchase decision. Do you think they will have another upcoming discount? $97 for Dev License is a little bit too much for my budget for now.

    By the way, do you think it’s a must-have plugin for my niche sites? I wanna get people like and share my niche site posts. Thanks!

    KC

    • Ana Hoffman says

      December 4, 2011 at 11:47 am

      I don’t think Andy is planning on offering any more discounts on CommentLuv, Kent.

      I just got back from your site. I think it’s great that you are using the free version, but I think you need to get your traffic numbers up before you can really take advantage of the paid version.

  4. Anne Lyken-Garner says

    November 26, 2011 at 1:29 am

    Thanks for this, Ana. It was very helpful to me and I’ve now done it (based on your instructions, to my blog).
    BTW, you asked for the transaction ID for that purchase. Here it is: 912371932K234853U

    Thanks again for all your help.

    • Ana Hoffman says

      November 26, 2011 at 8:44 am

      Thanks for the info, Anne.

      I’ll send you the “rebate” as soon as Andy pays me.

    It is a bit of a surprise to find my copyright image at the top of your post. Next time, let me know that you want to use one of my images.

    As to the post itself, very useful perspective. I am still weighing the benefits of CommentLuv, DF, and similar issues.

    • Ana Hoffman says

      November 20, 2011 at 8:40 pm

      Your copyright is on the image, Jonathan - I’d be happy to remove it if you’d like me to.

      • Jonathan Lockwood Huie says

        November 20, 2011 at 9:15 pm

        Ana, You are welcome to use the image. It’s just nice to be asked first, that’s all.

        May the world be kind to you, and may your own thoughts be gentle upon yourself.

    November 19, 2011 at 10:47 pm

    I am very eager for the very own ComLuv search engine as I got a new comluv premium 🙂 …Ana’s list of comluv enabled blogs also helped me in discovering awesome blogs wherein I learn a lot of things..

  7. Mavis Nong says

    November 18, 2011 at 11:06 am

    Great tutorial, Ana. Don’t you just luv CommentLuv Premium? 🙂

    All the best,
    Mavis

    • Ana Hoffman says

      November 19, 2011 at 1:41 am

      I just luv it, Mavis! LOL!

  8. Steve says

    November 18, 2011 at 11:48 am

    Anna, this seems to be one of the most active sites talking about commentluv, which is why I’m posting this here. I recently starting using commentluv, about a week ago. I’d like to use it more before I upgrade to premium and also I need to wait for financial reasons. What I’m wondering is this. Why so many sites I go to it says the current version is no longer supported and it has the pitch for the premium? Is the premium one going to be the only one working?

    • Ana Hoffman says

      November 20, 2011 at 8:48 pm

      No, Steve; the free version will still be working.

      Unfortunately, many bloggers don’t stay on top of updating their plugins and that’s why their CL doesn’t work any longer.

      The older versions of CL are not supported, that simple.

      So as long as you keep yours updated, you can keep the free version.

  9. Sire says

    November 18, 2011 at 5:39 am

    Man, you just have to love CommentLuv Premium. That plugin has so many possibilities for the serious blogger I just had to have it. I was lucky enough to snap it up when it was only $40 and I would have paid so much more than that.

    The best thing about it is that once you’re a premium owner you get to become an affiliate. As an affiliate I’ve paid for the plugin many times over. It’s one of the best blogging investments I have ever made.

    What surprises me is that so many Premium owners are not using it to its full advantage.

    • Ana Hoffman says

      November 19, 2011 at 1:48 am

      You’re right. There is just so many amazing features, I think people don’t get around to all of it.

  10. Azhar says

    November 17, 2011 at 6:46 pm

    I have seen every blogger has updated post for comment Luv. Why it is done by all? I think every one has tasted its flavor and found it tasty.

    • Ana Hoffman says

      November 17, 2011 at 8:14 pm

      Yes, Azhar, CL Premium is popping up like hotcakes all over the blogosphere…

  11. Gene Wolff says

    November 17, 2011 at 5:09 pm

    This is awesome. I might actually upgrade. I think the fact you
    can interact with all the other users and crete massive backlinks is
    crazy. A lot of bloggers under estimate the power of the comments.

    ~G

    • Ana Hoffman says

      November 17, 2011 at 8:50 pm

      Indeed they do, Gene - that’s one of the reason I built up my blog so quickly.

  12. Kathy says

    November 17, 2011 at 7:35 am

    Thanks Ana! 🙂 Great video!

    Your video was clear, illuminating and enlightening - for each step you took us through, step-by-step, and most importantly, your reasons why you chose the specific options.

    It made so much sense to what I’d seen before. I followed each one of your steps, paused, went over into my wp-admin and implemented.

    Thanks heaps!

    • Ana Hoffman says

      November 17, 2011 at 2:26 pm

      So glad to hear that, Kathy - nice to know that I haven’t wasted my efforts.

  13. Thomas says

    November 17, 2011 at 4:11 am

    Congratulation with the win Troy.

  14. Grant Brooks says

    November 17, 2011 at 2:19 am

    Thank you for the detailed video Anna!

    It will help someone like me who is new into linkbuilding and is trying hard to build legitimate links for my business. I also us the commentluv in the blog section of my company site, now how do i shift to premium?

    • Ana Hoffman says

      November 17, 2011 at 8:00 pm

      Just follow any of the links to CommenLuv Premium in my post, Grant.

  15. satrap says

    November 16, 2011 at 11:24 pm

    CLUV is the best tool/plugin I have ever bought. If you dont have it yet, get it. There is just so much potential when it comes to building relationship with other bloggers and of course SEO and link building. I mean, you know how important deep links are? Every time you comment, not only you build back link to your home page, but you also get a backlink to one of your posts. That’s 2 legit links for each comment you make!

    @ Troy,
    Congratulations Troy. Its an amazing plugin and you will love it.

    • Ana Hoffman says

      November 17, 2011 at 5:02 am

      Exactly, Satrap!

      There’s much more to CL than just the 7-in-1 plugins.

  16. Astro Gremlin says

    November 16, 2011 at 10:32 pm

    Appreciate your detailed approach to your ComLuv settings, Ana, and hearing the rationale behind your decisions. ComLuv is an amazing tool for guiding commenters to share your posts and receive linkback love, and you’ve shown how to “shape” behavior. Readers of this post should get Premium Comment Luv immediately (here on your site!) because the clock is ticking on the fabulous deal Andy has provided for a few days.

    • Ana Hoffman says

      November 17, 2011 at 5:17 am

      The clock is ticking indeed. Thanks for the shout-out!

  17. Sunil l Wealth Building says

    November 16, 2011 at 6:18 pm

    Good stuff Ana as usually. I wonder if CL purposely limited the post selection to the last 5 posts in their free version to encourage more users to use the paid version?

    • Ana Hoffman says

      November 17, 2011 at 5:12 am

      That’s probably the reason, Sunil.

  18. Ilka Flood says

    November 16, 2011 at 2:10 pm

    Hi Ana,

    Wow! You shared some incredible information and although I love CommentLuv Premium and have it installed for a while now, I didn’t know about all the settings and their reason. I immediately went and made some changes after watching your awesome video.

    Thank you so much for sharing it!

    Be blessed,

    Ilka

    • Ana Hoffman says

      November 17, 2011 at 8:44 am

      Well, now you can. Enjoy!

  19. Caleb says

    November 16, 2011 at 12:27 pm

    Just noticed something else here, although I am a confirmed and verified Premium CL owner the little heart says “not registered” 😕

    • Ana Hoffman says

      November 17, 2011 at 8:47 pm

      Not sure why, Caleb - is it just on my site or everywhere else you go?

      • Caleb says

        November 22, 2011 at 3:33 pm

        I am seeing the difference comes in whenever I use www or not. It appears as though the www version is the one CL mainly recognizes 😕

        • Ana Hoffman says

          November 22, 2011 at 5:42 pm

          That’s a very possible reason, Caleb.

  20. Jeramy says

    November 16, 2011 at 12:22 pm

    Hey Ana:
    Just got into the CommentLuv site and in the process of installing and setting it up (used your link of course). Love your post above; huge value and time saver to everyone and I appreciate sharing your wisdom.

    Is it bad that I am overwhelmingly excited about a plug-in? LOL
    Perhaps I need therapy; oh wait I should mention that I am a therapist.
    Thanks again my friend,
    Jeramy

    • Ana Hoffman says

      November 17, 2011 at 8:45 am

      LOL! If it is, I am guilty as charged too!

      Enjoy it!

  21. Caleb says

    November 16, 2011 at 12:12 pm

    Could you explain in a bit more detail why you thought not adding it to admin would “dilute internal linking” as it seems like it would be quite the opposite to me ❓

    • Ana Hoffman says

      November 17, 2011 at 8:45 pm

      Good question, Caleb - I didn’t want to go into it too much in the video considering it was going to be a long one as it was.

      As I did more and more studying on internal link building, I realized that it works best when it’s targeted. Plus of course, there’s always a first link priority issue, which means that you shouldn’t link to any one page more than once (https://trafficgenerationcafe.online/first-link-priority-rule/).

      The best internal links come from within the post with exact anchor text. Anything else might be too distracting to both the readers and the search engines.

  22. Gera says

    November 16, 2011 at 11:34 am

    Really very helpful video about Commentluv settings Ana!

    I’m watching it right now, and I see it took lot of work to do it 🙂

    Andy is doing a great work with this great plugin.

    Congrats to Troy!

    All the best,

    Gera

    • Ana Hoffman says

      November 16, 2011 at 2:03 pm

      Thanks, Gera.

      I really do think this is the best release of the year… the most useful one for sure!

  23. Jeff Witt says

    November 16, 2011 at 10:31 am

    Hi Ana, Just placed my order through your link. Can’t wait to watch your video later and get it set up.

    Looking forward to exploring all the freebies that were included.

    • Ana Hoffman says

      November 17, 2011 at 8:46 am

      Enjoy it, Jeff!

  24. Mitchell Allen says

    November 16, 2011 at 9:34 am

    Hi Ana, so now you can add Epic Film Producer to your resume! 🙂

    Does using the self-ping checkbox mean I can get rid of MaxBlogPress Ping Optimizer?

    I’m glad to see I have everything set up properly.

    Cheers,

    Mitch

    • Ana Hoffman says

      November 17, 2011 at 8:39 pm

      It does sound like it, Mitch; I sent Andy an email to double check.

      I must be some of the worst video makers out there LOL, but sometimes it’s just the best way to deliver content.

      • Ana Hoffman says

        November 18, 2011 at 10:22 am

        Hey, Mitch:

        Here’s what Andy said in response to my question:

        “no self ping just means your own posts do ping your own blog when you have internal links.
        I’m not sure what maxblogpress ping optimizer does but I’m pretty sure it’s a different thing, maybe it optimizes the pings that your own blog sends to ping services so you’d probably want to keep it. ”

        Sounds like MBP Ping Optimizer stays.

        • Mitchell Allen says

          November 18, 2011 at 3:24 pm

          Thanks, Ana (and Andy)!

          I’ll keep it, then. 🙂

          Cheers,

          Mitch

    November 16, 2011 at 9:14 am

    Hi Ana,

    I am the proud owner of CommentLuv premium ever since the first time you mentioned it. I haven’t focused on the settings, so this post is perfect for me. I understand the power of the premium version, now it’s time to do something about it.

    Thanks.

    • Ana Hoffman says

      November 17, 2011 at 8:47 am

      Yes, I’d say it’s about time, Jens.

  26. Sanjeev says

    November 16, 2011 at 7:59 am

    Thanks for the video Ana, There are so many settings that people can get confused. Your video made it easy.

    Its a great plugin and I am happy I got it before it was launched, thanks to you for the early notification last time.

    • Ana Hoffman says

      November 16, 2011 at 1:52 pm

      You are so very welcome, Sanjeev; glad my video helped.

      Just saw the new price; went up a bit! LOL

  27. Thomas says

    November 16, 2011 at 8:24 am

    Hi Ana
    I guess today is the big day where Andy push the button and launch his new version of Premium CommentLuv. I have watched his promotion videos and must say that he is one smart guy. I have been using the free version since I saw it for the first time. However I think it is very cool with the integration of Twitter and Google+.
    I luv your title for this post 🙂 Very catchy.

    • Jens P. Berget says

      November 16, 2011 at 9:44 am

      Hi Thomas,

      I’ve watched his promotion as well, and not only has he created an awesome product, but he’s a brilliant marketer.

      • Thomas says

        November 16, 2011 at 9:58 am

        Hi Jens

        He sure is a brilliant marketer. I love the way he use videos to reach out to his audience. He has also been very good to use Social Media to spread the word of his upcoming product.

        • Jens P. Berget says

          November 16, 2011 at 10:11 am

          I actually thought CommentLuv Premium launched weeks ago, because I had seen so many people using it already 🙂

  28. Robert Seth says

    November 16, 2011 at 5:35 am

    Anna, we connected on Twitter so I came over to check out your website. You really have an awesome website and I’m looking forward to spending some time here and learning some things from you. Thanks for this excellent blog post too and looking forward to getting to know you better. Take care and thanks again!

    • Ana Hoffman says

      November 16, 2011 at 1:44 pm

    November 16, 2011 at 4:35 am

    Hi Anna

    Just spent a very useful 23 minutes of my time listening and implementing your ideas for premium CommentLuv settings. This is a really helpful video to understand exactly how the settings affect your visitor’s experience and how to optimise the social sharing of your blog posts.

    I particularly liked your nifty suggestion to provide a link to CommentLuv in the KeywordLuv settings.

    Thanks for your hard work - hope the coffee helped!

    • Ana Hoffman says

      November 16, 2011 at 1:37 pm

      LOL, Andy - thanks for watching…

  30. Dr. Bob Clarke says

    November 15, 2011 at 8:49 pm

    Thanks so much Ana for this informative video. I learned a lot about what I was doing right (and unfortunately wrong) with the settings for CL Premium. Appreciate you taking the time to show us how you have configured this great plugin.

    Like you said on the video, if you don’t have it, go get it.

    • Ana Hoffman says

      November 15, 2011 at 9:41 pm

      Thanks for the thumbs up, Bob!

  31. Gonzalo Chagas says

    November 15, 2011 at 7:43 pm

    Hey Ana, I see that my email appear on your aweber for before I fill it. Is that part of Commentluv or is it a plugin that you are using? just asking.

    Thanks
    Gonzalo

    • Ana Hoffman says

      November 15, 2011 at 9:32 pm

      It’s a plugin called WPSubscribers, Gonzalo.

  32. Alexis says

    November 15, 2011 at 6:13 pm

    I hate to make myself seem dim but thanks so much for this post/video because I HAVE CommentLuv premium and HAVE fumbled with my settings 😛

    • Ana Hoffman says

      November 15, 2011 at 9:30 pm

      LOL, Alexis - I know how busy we get and going through so many settings can be daunting.

      Glad I could help!

  33. Steve Bloemer says

    November 15, 2011 at 3:25 pm

    Once again, thanks Ana. Just went through all my settings and matched most of them to yours. Very much appreciate the video - you’re the best. 🙂

    • Ana Hoffman says

      November 15, 2011 at 9:39 pm

      You are so very welcome, Steve.

    November 15, 2011 at 2:51 pm

    Thanks for the DropMyLink mention Ana!

    I already got my copy of CommentLuv Premium from the previous launch but it looks like Andy is offering some cool bonuses for those that purchase CommentLuv Premium this time around.

    • Ana Hoffman says

      November 15, 2011 at 9:29 pm

      Is it that obvious I like your nifty search engine, Chris? LOL

      Yes, Andy is going all out on this one.

  35. Anne Lyken-Garner says

    November 15, 2011 at 1:44 pm

    Ahhh. Gutted! I was hoping to win. Anyway, if you don’t know how much it’s going to be, is it still worth buying it now?

    • Ana Hoffman says

      November 15, 2011 at 2:03 pm

      Sorry, Anne!!!

      The cart will open tomorrow. If it were me, I’d buy it whatever the price, because I see so much value in it.

      Of course, it’s me, and only you can decide if it’s worth for your business, Anne.

  36. Jason Osborne says

    November 15, 2011 at 1:35 pm

    Ana, another great post. I thoroughly enjoyed you video. You made some great points which caused me to make a few configuration changes on my Comment Luv settings.

    For those who don’t have Comment Luv, you should go buy it! Just commenting on other Comment Luv blogs such as TGC has drastically helped build back links to my website.

    • Ana Hoffman says

      November 15, 2011 at 9:39 pm

      So glad my video helped you tweak your settings, Jason - good to know I didn’t spend half a day for nothing. LOL

    November 15, 2011 at 1:32 pm

    Hi Ana,
    It is really a great plugin and worth buying, it is a nice way also to give back some love to your readers. Congratulation Troy I am sure you will love it.
    I hope to see more giveaways from you Ana.

    • Ana Hoffman says

      November 15, 2011 at 9:38 pm

      You definitely will, Salah.

      I really would’ve loved for you to win.
