GoBackpacking’s Comment Policy

by Dave on September 18, 2007 · 1 comment

In the interest of full disclosure, I wanted to share my current Comment Policy for the GoBackpacking Blog.

1. All comments with URL’s in them require moderation.

2. Moderation of comments may take several days (and possibly weeks) once I am traveling abroad.

3. The top 5 commentators will receive a link in my sidebar with a URL to their website (if given). The link is based off of the number of comments left in the last 4 months. This allows new readers the opportunity to make the list.

4. As of May 11, 2007, I adopted a Do-Follow approach, which gives commentators who leave a URL to their website a small search engine benefit because the back link will register with Google and Technorati. This topic is regularly debated in blogging circles, so here’s a link to get you started if you want to learn more.

5. As of September 15, 2007, I installed Lucia’s Linky Love WordPress plugin to provide a little structure to my commenting policy. In order for a commentator to receive a Do-Follow link, he/she will need to leave 3 comments. In order for a URL in the actual comment to be Do-Follow, the commentator will need to leave 5 comments. A commentator’s name must also be fewer than 25 characters in length (this is to prevent spammers who use keywords as their name).

6. I reserve the right to delete any comments I feel are an attempt to spam this site.

Happy commenting!
