Comment Hut, Free Backlinks?
28. Dec 2006 | 26 Comments
It’s not often I get excited or enjoy a free piece of software but I must say the guys over at Comment hut have made me quite happy over the past few weeks. They’ve developed a piece of software that allows you to scrape through Wordpress blogs by the keyword of your choice then order the posts by Page Rank.
Why’s this useful?
Well incase you’re living in the Stone Age, One way links are incredibly important these days. Even more so when you can choose your own Anchor Text (like on blog comments ;)).
It’s so frickin easy, you basically load up Comment hut. Type in the keyword of your choice, it brings up the blogs & you leave a nice comment with a link back to your site.
Few tips for not getting your comments deleted:
- Try & make a useful comment that adds to the conversation
- Don’t just say “Hi nice Site!” it’ll probably get deleted
- Don’t say anything off topic, it’ll get deleted
- Try & not post more than 1 hyperlink
- Try & post links to things that are on topic
I actually picked up a few PR6 & PR7 comments that had no nofollow enabled to a few of my sites. These links would normally cost about $50-150/month on somewhere like Textlinkads.
The software itself is a lite version of the main Comment hut, it’s limited to 10% of the total blogs found & also limited to wordpress only. That being said, I’ve had awesome fun with the free version.
The full version is something like $97 (as all softwares are for some wierd reason….) and it includes Movable Type, Typepad & other types of blogs, as well as the other 90% of the results that are missing.
If the software developer reads this & wants me to review the full version I’ll gladly take a copy for testing purposes
As well as posting results from the software I’ll do an indepth review on a dedicated blog page too.

Nice site!
……..
Ok, now serious
How fast does the software work? Any feature for blogspot too? How many results did you get on certain topics? Even if it’s only 10%, there are a lot of blogs out there. Hence, the full version would explode you with millions of blogs. That means a lot of commenting for SEO ![]()
Thx for the great comments.
Send me your contact details and I’ll hook you up with the full version.
Please, provide a 100% unbiased review, unlike the ones that feel obligated for receiving a review copy.
In other words, if you think it’s crap, then say so. I’d like you to rip it apart and post your review for your readers to see.
Thx again,

I would really like to try it out, but i have a Mac. So, i can’t use this right?
I’ll give it a try.
Hi Jason,
Man, Im so sorry, but Comment hut is not compatible with Macs at this present moment in time.
I love Macs myself beat computers on the planet in my opinion, but this time I have to bow my head in shame
Have a good one regardless…

Stewart… no apology needed. I run a PC
Edwin is the one with a Mac.
Hey Stu,
Can you do me a favor?
Please replace all the direct links I used in my posts with your own link and tell your readers to clear their cookies just in case they’d already clicked on my link.
Cheers Stu, I’d hate to see you miss out on any commissions for your hard work.
Look forward to receiving your recommendations.

Ha ha, nice SEO Stuart. Looks like you’re ranking #1 for Comment hut.
This software seems really cool, but since blogging software usually tags links with a rel=\”nofollow\” do they really do any good? Very curious to know about this.
I thank you for your comment.
As someone very interested in SEO, naturally I wanted to test out Comment hut for myself. I only tried the lite version, and it works well. The problem is, most Wordpress blogs are “nofollow”. Therefore, it won’t do me much good. Can someone enlighten me as to how this can be worked around?
Thanks.
I don’t think it’s possible to work around the nofollow links - but it might still be useful since people click on your link if your comment is slighly insigtful.
Hi Guys,
Stewart here from Comment hut.
You all have a valid point about the nofollow tags, they are everywhere.
I cannot make you any promises about what the search engines do and what they don’t do. All I can tell you about are the results.
Without hyping it all up, here’s the deal…
Users of Comment hut consistently report that they’re sites are getting indexed using Comment hut.
Remember, it’s not Comment hut itself that gets your sites crawled, it’s the current system the search engines are using that does that.
Comment hut finds you high ranking blogs where you can leave your useful, value adding posts.
Note, I said value adding posts.
A rule of thumb when making a post on someone’s blog is to treat it as if it were your own. This way you’ll find that your posts will be welcomed by the blog owners, thus earning you that valuable backlink you seek.
Here’s what we’ve been witnessing before Comment hut’s release, during and up to today’s present moment in time…
“Some†search engines are ignoring the nofollow tag and listing the links in their results. These listings are then being picked up by… let’s say some of the bigger players in the search engine game.
So irrespective of what we’ve told, sold or led to believe, there could just be another side to the story.
I may sound a little ‘cryptic” and there’s a reason for that, and here’s why…
I’m doing all I can to avoid making any “dead cert” statements about what the search engines can, will or are going to do, because I have no control over that, nor anyone else but the search engine owners themselves.
What I can tell you however; are the results and they have been consistent.
Comment hut will find you low to high ranking blogs where you can leave sensible posts (manually, no autoposting in site).
Hope this helps.

Okay, I tried to get the Lite version but there didn’t appear to be any.
Has it been taken out of the site, Stewart?
Thanks for the information. I’ve been looking for a blog finder.

Hi, I tried the lite version. The page rank check feature did not work for me. I got only 3-4 results for some pretty common keywords like “fabric”. Not sure if something is wrong on my side though because noone else seems to be complaining about stuf flike that.
If I can get the full version, I will write a full unbiased review on several of my sites as well as several seo forums that I am part of. Can that be arranged?
Thanks!

I have this program but you should know that it is useless.All links on comments are NO FOLLOW links!
All Worpress blogs have this option.
Well for those that don’t know, Google still follows no-follow links on some sites.
i love free back links, the price seems to be a bit on the high side ![]()
i have been bumming around to get a piece of advice to rank higher in UK SEO 2008 contest. This one helps a lot. hehee
I tried this software as well. Its interesting. What I liked best is that it also brings to notice blogs of interest. I end up reading a lot and then learning a lot as well. The comments are a bonus.
Is there any free trial version available. Tell me how to download it?
Comment hut is a good tool. I am using it for many months and I am very happy.

Xfiver - I posted to 8 PR6 Blogs to one of my music blogs which has been in supplemental for a few months now. Today it’s fully indexed with no supps
Stewart gave me the full version to play with so I’m probably going to experiment a lot then do a nice writeup….
