3rd Party Commenting System for Wordpress Blog
-
I'll be starting a new blog within a week, for that i'm thinking to implement a 3rd party comment system instead of default wordpress comment system. I'm thinking of Livefyre or Facebook Comment System. Mostly my heart is saying to go for Livefyre.
I'm in such a niche where i need more likes and sharing, so do you advice me to got for Facebook Commenting System.
What do you guys suggest and recommend. which is better? Pls do advice, thanks

Thank You Marie Haynes for the answer.
I too heard of Google Commenting System, But is it worth waiting till they release it? Should i go with the default wordpress commenting system till then?
Facebook Comments are now indexable. So isn't that a good option to go for it. I do agree that it's very difficult to moderate Facebook comments. But I think facebook commenting system will generate us tons of traffic, isn't that worth going for this?
Also, Can we use both facebook and default comment system in blog? If so How? How can we integrate both? Please do refer me to some useful articles on achieving this.

I'm a fan of disqus because even though it is a third party commenting system, the comments are still stored on your wordpress databases. So, if something were to happen to the company you wouldn't lose your comments.
Perhaps I'm missing something, but I found with Facebook comments that I couldn't figure out how to moderate them.
I've heard rumors that google is going to come out with a third party commenting system of their own, so I haven't been too quick to change to anything until that happens. It's debatable whether disqus comments are SEO friendly. (I think they have a new upgrade that is crawlable though). But you know that google comments will definitely be able to be crawled!

If I had the choice I'd go for Facebook Comments purely for the the social sharing.

Locating Guest Blogging Niches
Hey Folks, Does anybody have advice on tools I could use to locate blogs on specific topics? My plan is to approach the webmasters and offer guest blogging services. I know I could just do a google search for something like "KEYWORD blogs" but I thought I'd see if there is anything more sophisticated out there. Thanks, Rich

Blog SEO Strategy
The current SEO strategy for my company blog is to include a percentage of short tail keywords in each blog post, and not to link to the main site because they are concerned with diluting the blog. I would like to change the strategy and instead use the blog to promote long tail keywords by having each entry focus on around a different long tail keyword. I would also like to use the short-tail keywords for internal linking to strengthen our important pages with keyword rich anchor text (no more than 1 link per 100 words). I would love the advice of the SEOMoz community about which strategy is more effective (or if there is something else entirely we should be doing). Thanks!

Images for WordPress
I'd be grateful for any advice regarding sourcing, adding & attributing images/photos for my WordPress blog. Budget is tight so have to rule out paid stock libraries, but I heard that Flickr images can be used under Creative Commons providing they are correctly attributed. eg. http://www.zdnet.co.uk/news/business-of-it/2011/04/07/mps-criticise-bbc-siemens-38m-contract-failure-40092428/ eg 2. http://www.zdnet.co.uk/news/networking/2011/10/05/bt-lines-up-300mbps-broadband-launch-40094109/ Example 1 does not seem to link back but example 2 does. Are there any rules on this? I have looked at some plugins: Insights, iFlickr, WP Flickr Manager, Photo Dropper. Looking to save time by streamlining the process of adding images, resizing and attributing. Many thanks.

I wanted to ask the experts how to go about moving this blog without loosing Page Rank. Is it possible to do a 301 redirect from WP itself? Is there anything that I can do to preserve ranking? Any help would be appreciated. Thank you Dmitry
