I’ve just installed the dofollow plugin that has disabled the “nofollow” attributes on the comments made on this blog. I’m pretty happy with Akismet, so I’m not worried about getting spam comments. So from now, all people who will comment on this blog will get some link love ![]()

Something to say?
I did the same several months ago — although, unlike you, I didn’t announce it. It certainly didn’t have any immediate impact on how much comment spam I received, although by a couple weeks ago I was going crazy with Akismet catching over 1000 spam comments per week.
I’ll recommend considering the Bad Behavior bot blocking plugin as well, if that becomes a problem. It made a HUGE difference to me — I actually had two days this week without any comment spam! Miracle!

Hi Joe, hmm, yeah I think I will install the Bad Behavior plugin as well, thanks! 2 days without any comment spam? Wow, this is a record!

I’ve been doing the same for months now, and I love it. Why should I want to block people from some linklove if they give valuable comments on my blog
You might wonder though if these links give much value… I’ve had a feeling for quite some time now that in-post links provide much, much, much more value than comment links… Quite easy to filter out as well of course.

Thanks for the reminder… I have it installed on one blog but need to put it on all my others!
A small job today to be added to the list.

Wow! Yet more “US-only” services from Bing! Who’d have guessed it!!! (Heavy sarcasm intended).
Why do you continually disregard the rest of the world? Why do we matter so little to the Bing team?

while the ten principles listed provide a comprehensive check list for lending to small
entrepeneurs, list is suitable for urban lending. List stops short at providing insight to lending to
rural low income clients where thre is a huge gap in satisfying demand, operational costs for
lenders limits their capacity to follow up/monitor clients/end users and limited collateral to
access credit. I will appreciate feedback on succesful approaches for lending small/low income
farmers.
