			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img height="64" border="0" align="right" width="200" src="http://tnerd.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/disqus.gif" alt="DISQUS" />We haven&rsquo;t seen any enhancements in the commenting system of <a href="https://wordpress.org" target="_blank">Wordpress</a> for a longtime now. Well, that&rsquo;s about to change. </p>
<p>  Companies like <a href="http://disqus.com" target="_blank">DISQUS</a> and <a href="http://Seesmic.com" target="_blank">Seesmic</a> are bringing in new ideas  and technologies which will fuel the enhancement on the commenting system front  and take it to the next level, if not already there. These two companies recently partnered to offer a better version of their services which include a video reply and the social concept of commenting.</p>
<p>  Let&rsquo;s talk about <a href="http://disqus.com" target="_blank">DISQUS</a>; it&rsquo;s a service which is dedicated  to make commenting on sites, easier, faster, interactive and engaging and most importantly  Spam-free.</p>
<p>  <span id="more-1431"></span>There are two parts to this service, 1) Just create a  profile and start commenting on the sites which have this plugin activated 2)  Create a profile and install this plugin on your own site to enhance the  commenting system on the site.</p>
<p>  Part 1(can be used as an SEO tool for your blog), Creating a profile on DISQUS: Once you register your profile with the service, spend some  time on configuring your preferences/setting and filling up your profile page. </p>
<p>  Now whenever you leave a comment on the site which has this  pluggin installed it will automatically pull your information from the site and  show it to the users.</p>
<p>This can become one of  the most powerful SEO services and techniques in the time to come. </p>
<p>  <a href="http://tnerd.com" target="_blank">We</a> registered with DISQUS and left a comment on a site which  has this plugin installed. In the image below I will show you how this plugin  really works and how efficiently it can help you improve your traffic stats. This image is taken from one of the sites where we left a comment to show you an example of how it can be SEO&#8217;ed (Sorry about that!)</p>
<p><img height="297" border="0" align="bottom" width="500" src="http://tnerd.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/tnerd-comment.gif" alt="Tnerd Comment" /><br />   Let&rsquo;s go through the image above point by point:</p>
<ul>     </ul>
<ol>
<li>Once you leave a comment that&rsquo;s how your image  will be displayed on the page, provided you have your information filled on the  DISQUS profile page. The larger image with more information will be show to the users once the mouse moves on the profile display image or the comment title.</li>
<li>Your title and username is directly pulled from  the DISQUS server.</li>
<li>Each of these comments can be voted for or  against and that&rsquo;s how the comments gain points. Point number 8 shows the  buttons where you can vote up or down on a comment.</li>
<li>This pulls the information of your site and  other services like Twitter, Facebook, Linkedin, Flickr, etc.. and shows it on  your comment.</li>
<li>If you linked your twitter account with your  DISQUS account then it will show your last status msg from Twitter.</li>
<li>Recent comments will be shown to other users who  are browsing your profile. These comment will be pulled from across the web not  just one site.</li>
<li>Show the information of the comment. For example:  Time of the last comment, Site of the last comment and the Post of the last  comment</li>
<li>Let you vote for or against a comment</li>
</ol>
<ul>                                    </ul>
<p>Now if you configure this plugin according and start  visiting blogs which use this plugin, it can bring lot of new visitors to your  blog.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Be nice and do not spread spam because you want to show up  on all comments pages.</p>
<p>In addition it provides other features on your site such as </p>
<ul>
<li>Logging in or out before commenting</li>
<li>Subscribing to a particular thread</li>
<li>Or go to &ldquo;My Comments&rdquo; or &ldquo;Community Page&rdquo;  directly.</li>
</ul>
<p><img height="131" border="0" align="bottom" width="284" src="http://tnerd.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/options1.gif" alt="DISQUS Options on page" /></p>
<p>  So register with DISQUS, configure your profiles and  settings page, install it on your blog and comment away!!</p>
