		<description>I mostly have trouble keeping up with all the different blogs I&#039;m subscribed to and commenting all over the place and such.

I have no problem (as of right now) keeping up with things on my own.

		<description>Would CommentLuv help as well?

I&#039;ve noticed that a lot of the blogs I comment on that are successful with a nice community have CommentLuv enabled. Is there a trend, or are the blog owners just being nice? ;) :D

		<description>Thanks for the advice :D

Threaded comments have now been installed on my blog, as well as a complete overhaul of the comments section... looks soo much better now. Lets hope it has a positive effect on the comments now ;)

		<description>Does a bit of both count? ;)

I think that it&#039;s good to have at least a small base of recurring visitors who will comment on your posts and that sort of thing, but at the same time I think it&#039;s important to get as much traffic. 

I think if I HAD to go for one of those two it&#039;d be the &#039;few returning visitors&#039; option. Much better to have a blog with comments etc than one with lots of crap traffic :D

		<description>True, but I think a lot of the time people who hire someone to write their content will go for low cost rather than quality articles written by a professional who understands things such as conversational writing and how to engage readers ;)
