As I was doing my usual blog hopping, I came across Noobpreneur.com, a blog I haven’t visited for months since the last time. Quite surprisingly, the blog is doing very well, properly maintained and organized. What really impressed me and caught my attention is the page rank button displayed at the sidebar showing that Noobpreneur.com has a Google Page Rank of 5.
The curious blogger that I am, I started to snoop around. And since Google primarily depends on links to determine page ranks, the first thing I did was to check how many links does Noobpreneur.com has and what are the nature of these links.
I found out from my investigation that Noobpreneur.com has 291 inbound links. AnyBeard.eu, another blog with a Google Page Rank of 5, has more inbound links (1,230). This tells us that page rank isn’t all about having more inbound links. Google however, does not show the accurate inbound links of websites using site:URL. Google Webmaster can provide a more accurate information but unfortunately, I don’t have access to these information.
Going further with my investigation, I discovered that most of Noobpreneur.com’s inbound links are from blogs using the Top Commentator plugin. Ivan, the blogger behind Noobpreneur, is using the Top Commentatator as a link building strategy, which apparently is working for him.
I got interested with Ivan’s link building strategy so I decided to give it a shot and see how it works. You too should give it a try. I have compiled a list of blogs that are using the Top Commentator Plugin for our convenience.
Just a word of advice before you start commenting. Do not spam these websites. You’re just risking your blog from getting banned. The best thing you can do is to contributes to the discussions. The usual “great post”, “great blog” and “I agree to your points” comments are not going to work.

I’ve stumbled across a few different commentator plugins before, but I haven’t loved any of the ones I’ve found. I was wondering how exactly page rank was figured out, considering my old blog PR went to 5 in a very very short period of time, however since starting TD, it’s been 0 forever. Good to know how it’s calculated.
Thanks for the list. I will use them for my daily posting activities. I have installed the plugin myself. You can find my blog here:

Its still in PRO because its just 1 month old. But the traffic is great. Everyone is welcome to post their comments but for those spammers, I would not do since i have installed an anti-spam plugin.
Cheers
Thanks for the shout!

Hi,
Thanks for highlighting my blog! It’s a huge honour for me
Anyway, you are right about being a top commentator - it’s one of my strategy in traffic and link building.
To add, John Chow dot com had a top commentator plugin installed before, but not it’s been taken off, unfortunately.
Cheers!
Wow, what a list!

My PR 3 blog deserves to be on this list. One major disadvantage of the Top Commentator plugin is that it invites spammy comments.So you gotta get prepared to live with spam.

This sounds like a great strategy. But when you leave a comment at a blog, you can’t really link it back using your keyword. What does this strategy do for you in keyword ranking?
