Nothing is more embarrassing than a misspelled word or incorrect grammar in an article on your blog. OK, may be there are other more embarrassing things out there but this still is not a nice scenario for a professional blogger. As a blogger you should try to catch all your mistakes before your readers catch them and point fingers at them (or worst publish your mistakes on flickr for all to see:) ). Almost all commercial word processing programs offer built-in spell and grammar checkers. These tools allow the users to write without worrying too much about the spelling and to some extent the structure of their sentences. This peace of mind naturally increases their productivity. Now you can get that same functionality for your WordPress blog by installing a smart plugin. Aptly named ‘After The Deadline’, this plugin frees you from worrying about spelling and grammatical structure and let you focus on your main goal – to write.

“After the Deadline is a plugin for WordPress and TinyMCE with contextual spell checking, advanced style checking and intelligent grammar checking.”

Today I stumbled upon an excellent WordPress plugin. It is called CommentLuv. This plugin rewards the visitors who leave comments on your posts with backlinks to their recent posts. This is an excellent way to encourage your visitors to leave comments on your post. It is a win-win situation for you and the visitors. You get a more engaged visitors and they get the chance to promote their latest posts and get a deep link to their posts.

The plugin is very easy to use. Just download the zip file, extract and upload the plugin file to your wp-content/plugins directory, and activate the plugin.
Once the plugin is activated , it adds a check box with following text beneath the comment text box on each post:

“Enable CommentLuv which will try and get your last blog post, please be patient while it finds it for you.”

The checkbox is selected by default. If the commentator enables the CommentLuv the plugin will visit the feed of the comment author and inserts a link to his/her last post under the comment. Really terrific!

Try it now by leaving a comment below.
