Yeah, major problems with Disqus currently and I have been telling them about it for weeks, and uploaded a full export file to them as a support ticket last weekend... today is Thursday

For dofollow plugins I would test this version from Shaun recently hacked from Lucia's Linky Love

Love your Nginx training stuff, but be careful using Vimeo - not for commercial use

Recently moved servers to fix some problems, but the plugin needs to be updated to no longer use Nofollow, otherwise it doesn't really give a benefit now.

Hi Andy, I just wanted to let you know I've released a new WordPress 2.8 plugin called "Follow My Links". My plugin prevents WordPress from automatically nofollowing links in authorial comments (i.e., comments made by the post author"). You can download it from the WP plugin directory at http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/follow-my-l...

Ram they are up to date in as much as before I switched to Disqus comments, I was using the original Dofollow plugin, and of the others I know plenty use Lucia's Linky Love.

I have seen more plugins launched since this list was written, but the overall recommendations remain the same.

There are a few more specialist SEO plugins, but I prefer to highlight those in SEO posts, when I have time.

The link from the official WordPress site is in some ways inconsequential for traffic - I am often regarded as one of the instigators/cheerleaders of the dofollow or ifollow movement, and thus the traffic/rankings from links generated far outweight a single link from WordPress.

The Bumpzee community died, possibly a good thing as it was abused.

My links are currently nofollow because I still need to hack the Disqus plugin

Andy, can you please update your post? Which ones are still up to date? Your site is linked to from the official wordpress support site, so I suppose you get a good amount of traffic for that and it would help quiet a lot of people.
Which plugin are you currently using yourself to have dofollow comments?
