WordPress plugin for Facebook login and comment
-
I've read the WordPress reviews for several plugins that support FB login / comment, but the reviews are generally mixed. Even the plugin developed by FB received terrible reviews. Can you recommend a WP plugin that supports FB login?

Hi Christopher
I am honestly not an expert at this type of plugin specifically - but have plenty of experience searching for plugins. If I were researching (which I just have for a bit) I would try this one first;
http://wordpress.org/plugins/oa-social-login/
I tend to look for recency of updating, quantity of downloads, and depth of documentation (which hints at how good the support is). Doesn't seem like we're going to find the the perfect solution here from a review standpoint, but based upon other factors I would comfortably try the one above.
Also wanted to make sure you saw this article on Smashing Magazine - there's some good info in there, in the comments as well.

Blog Comments
Hey guys, My question is about blog comments. I have them disabled on my blog simply because I didn't want to have to deal with them. I get reasonably good traffic to my blog (mainly from my facebook fanpage). Am I making a mistake by having comments disabled? What about WP Plugins like CommentLuv. Will having this enabled hurt my SEO? What if I make every comment need approval and keep the Spam out? And finally, does commenting on others blogs that do have CommentLuv enabled help? Thanks!

Facebook Open Graph Tags: Thoughts on OG:Type
I am wondering how Facebook uses the data enclosed in OG Type tags? Facebook wants you to stick to the types listed though it's fairly limited in scope. Our pages are in the accommodation space but they are not HOTELS. In this instance would you list as COMPANY or go with HOTELS. Curious to hear your thoughts - thanks!

SEO & Social | More SEO effect by liking the page URL rather than the Facebook Page?
SEOMoz Gurus, I am wondering what our best implementation strategy shoul dbe around linking up the Facebook Like button on our pages. Essentially there are two options: A) Linking the button directly to the Facebook Page of the web site so every Like is actually converting into a Facebook "Fan" which can be messaged going forward through our Facebook page. B) Having them like the actual URL which might be more beneficial from an SEO and viral perspective as now a link to the actual URL gets shared on the Liker's facebook wall and it should also be easier to use that lIke for Google & Co. as it's tied to the actual URL not a random Facebook page given that search engines already convert those signals. Both approaches obviously have their benefits. Are there any common guidelines on what is a better approach to take from a pure SEO perspective? Thanks /Thomas

Dud facebook likes / fake profiles.
I've seen a few companies pop up offering 'facebook likes' for sale. I'm assuming these are all dud accounts that are subject to get deleted in a second if facebook catches on. Anyone else have something to add?
