3rd Party Commenting System for Wordpress Blog
-
I'll be starting a new blog within a week, for that i'm thinking to implement a 3rd party comment system instead of default wordpress comment system. I'm thinking of Livefyre or Facebook Comment System. Mostly my heart is saying to go for Livefyre.
I'm in such a niche where i need more likes and sharing, so do you advice me to got for Facebook Commenting System.
What do you guys suggest and recommend. which is better? Pls do advice, thanks

Thank You Marie Haynes for the answer.
I too heard of Google Commenting System, But is it worth waiting till they release it? Should i go with the default wordpress commenting system till then?
Facebook Comments are now indexable. So isn't that a good option to go for it. I do agree that it's very difficult to moderate Facebook comments. But I think facebook commenting system will generate us tons of traffic, isn't that worth going for this?
Also, Can we use both facebook and default comment system in blog? If so How? How can we integrate both? Please do refer me to some useful articles on achieving this.

I'm a fan of disqus because even though it is a third party commenting system, the comments are still stored on your wordpress databases. So, if something were to happen to the company you wouldn't lose your comments.
Perhaps I'm missing something, but I found with Facebook comments that I couldn't figure out how to moderate them.
I've heard rumors that google is going to come out with a third party commenting system of their own, so I haven't been too quick to change to anything until that happens. It's debatable whether disqus comments are SEO friendly. (I think they have a new upgrade that is crawlable though). But you know that google comments will definitely be able to be crawled!

If I had the choice I'd go for Facebook Comments purely for the the social sharing.

Same content on site blog as a separate blog. Will unpublishing on one blog evade duplicate content issues?
I just discovered my client was posting the same content as the site I'm working on for him on a separate blog. I don't want to run into duplicate content issues. Both are Wordpress sites. Will it suffice to simply unpublish duplicate entries on the other blog and leave the posts as drafts?

What is your take on using Google images for blogs
In your opinion, do you think it is okay to use Google images for your blog posts as long as it credits or includes a link to the site in which you located it? We tried looking at stock art for some license-free photos and had no luck in coming up with good pictures. What rules or guidelines do you follow when looking for pictures for your customers blog (or your own)? A lot of our posts have to do with "what to do in this city" or "Where to go in this city". Do you think it's okay to use Google images for these types of posts?

Does Google penalize for duplicate blog posts?
Occasionally, I get asked by another blogger if they can repost (in full) one of our blog posts on their blog as a guest post. I've always been under the impression that Google penalizes this type of behavior, but I haven't seen any evidence. Is this true?

Best strategy for content/articles. Individual pages or blog posts?
Hi all, Whilst adding content to one of my sites quite often I'm left deciding whether I should create an individual webpage for the content, or write it up as another blog post. More often I write it up as a static page so it fits in with the rest of my website more 'directly'. However I'm wondering if I'm missing out here as obviously I'm not taking advantage of the benefits of a blog, RSS, Tag Cloud, etc etc... Just wondering if others encounter the same quandary?

Blogs: Hosted vs. Off-Site
What is the latest opinion on whether to have a blog hosting on your primary domain or on an outside domain (either Wordpress or just another URL). In the past we have done the former and it's been a great source of fresh content and organic traffic. Wonder if there is good argument now for not having it on the domain. With this new site we're working on it logistically would be more challenging given their tech resources, plus they already have thousands of pages.
