Blog Comment Sofware
-
Looking into allowing comments on a business blog: mysite.com/blog. Which is the best software to use to allow readers to leave a comment? (Use wordpress) One that will help eliminate spam. Are there some that allow you to sign in without social accounts (Facebook etc) and are there some that allow you to sign in with social accounts?
Thanks

I haven't got experience with any plugins to help users login before posting but I definitely have experience with WP Blog comments and spammers, so hopefully, I could offer some helpful advice.
I've been accepting blog comments on our companies WP sites and one of the sites has received 6500+ comments, all from genuine readers. We did see a lot of spam at the beginning but I didn't want to make my readers jump through hoops to leave a comment.
I disabled the URL field and if you go to Settings > Discussions in the admin panel, you can list all the words that you would like flagged as spam. I'm currently approving 20+ comments daily and I see no spam in the pending section, all the spam is filtered into spam box and I empty it weekly.

Guest Blogging
If I am looking to guest blog for back links, do I need to reciprocate and provide guest blogging opportunities for them on my site? OR is it better to ask other site's to link to articles on my client's page with the understanding I will link to their page (if they are not competition)? I am trying to do some link building for a bankruptcy lawyer and I am considering possibly searching out guest blogging in different cities/states. Bankruptcy is primarily a federal matter, so reaching out to neighboring states. Not sure the client will be interested in this or not, but it's something I am considering. A lot of law firms have contact information Thanks everyone!

Blog Repost?
We are a coupon site & occasionally have some updates to certain coupons that we post (maybe 24-28 hours after the original post). Is there any best practices to follow for reposting content? Here are a few thoughts: Would it be ok to use the same post, but just re-schedule it again to go out with the new updates? Should we create a new post & just reference the previous post?

Onsite Blogging Vs Guest Blogging
Hey all! I have a limited amount of time allocated to writing instructional blog posts for my company. When I complete an article I can do whatever I want with it: pitch it as a guest post on an industry blog, or post it on my company's onsite blog. I know there's not a magical solution regarding the percentage of time one should devote to guest blogging v. focusing on the company blog, but I figured I'd throw the conundrum out to the Mozzers anyway. In your opinion, how many of your writing resources should be devoted to guest posts, and how many should be devoted to maintaining the onsite blog? What if our onsite blog isn't currently receiving a lot of traffic? Thanks! Meg

Should I Have No Index, No Follow On Blog Category & Tag Pages?
At some point in the past I read or was told that No Index, No Follow tags on category and tag pages were a good thing on a standard WordPress blog in order to prevent duplicate content issues. Is this still true or was it ever true?
