I personally comment on blogs because I like reading what people have to say about many topics. But I also care about self promotion, therefore I seek out blogs that use KeywordLuv so I am not wasting my time. Using the KeywordLuv plugin should help curb spam.

Still there is a certain % that I see my links are still being acknowledge by Google. However, the love juice isn't as high, but still counts as a link. Depending on what level of the linking game for your website. For us lower numbered links, we'll take it! I totally understand nofollow or dofollow.

Personally, my blog is a PR4 webmaster seo related dofollow blog which allows keywordluv type of names. Akismet plugin is helpful but not to the level yet. Maintaining a dofollow blog is not easy.

Whether the visitor IS interested in your blog/post and comments with interest or not and just wants a link. In other words, it depends on the blog owner himself/herself whether (s)he is willing to appreciate the comments and accepting the links in exchange or just as a sign of appreciation, simple as that. If not, then by all means, removing the 'URL' field takes 2 seconds! Google that out. Don't leave the URL and then judging people for spamming, most are not spamming, they post with interest and once they see the option of leaving their website URL, why not? I'm all for DOFOLLOW or just remove the URL field! Don't leave it with nofollow, that's more a trick in making some people comment without interest. So anyway, all for dofollow, Cheers!

If a blog is good enough then the blog owner won’t need to have do-follow because people will comment to put their point of view accross, not to gain a back link. The BBC is a perfect example of this. There are no links in the forums and blogs, yet they have many users. However, when a blog is starting and it wants to get a upper hand, their is no harm in attracting people who want do-follow links, because some will become hooked, so even if you change to no-follow, people will still comment.

If we go for repair rather than the replacement then certainly we can save some money. Modern windshields have been designed to be repairable. Nowadays special injections are coming into the automobile glass market that contain a special resin which is injected into the damaged area using unique tools that attach directly to the glass. Some chips or cracks may react successfully to the repair whereas some may not. Windshield repair is like first aid. If you leave a crack and do not fix it, then it may cause more severe damage and the condition of the windshield can get much worse. <a href="http://www.emergencyglassrepair.com" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Windshield Replacement</a> Whenever such a situation occurs, the first thing that arises in our mind is which option we should choose — repair or replacement.

Actually that did not prove to increase comments or participation to the discussion. The main result was to be listed in black SEO websites that listed blogs with the dofollow option on in comments. Regard to this I would say that it may be also something that penalized my rank in Google, even if I will have to wait the next page rank update. I would not suggest to enable dofollow in comments if you do not have a very loyal readers base. Just my cent.
