Display the Number of Comments on Blog with Comment Count
Advertisements
If you have a highly popular Wordpress blog with good number of comments everyday, then you can display the total comment count on your blog. The plugin called as Liz Strauss Comment Counter is a highly configurable badge that shows the number of comments your WordPress blog has. The comment count badge looks similar to the feed burner chicklet and display how popular your blog is.
Features of this plugin;
- The plugin generates a static image every time a comment is left, there is no dynamic image generation
- In case of failure to generate static image, it does it on the fly.
- Minimal load and no extra database query is fired
- Shows comments count similar to feed count
- Neat interface with different color combination available
The admin panel is also neat and easily configurable. Detailed instruction on how to use it can be found on the author’s blog.

John chow had a guest post on how to use feedcompare (a pretty late discovery)…But feedburner count does not have any meaning as it is highly tampered in a number of ways.
Now here is another one for comment count…Nirmal, If you see, it is only the Marketers who market all these funny stuff, that is not really worth the display…
Number of Comments are not so important I guess as far as you get good quality comments..
@Rakesh,
I dont agree its not worth to display at all. People stuff their sidebar with lots unimportant stuff, what abt those?
@PC,
Number of comments is not important I agree, but its just another fancy thing
People usually measure the popularity with the number of subscribers, comments and similar such things and this widget again helps in improving the subscribers… Good one…
The images is pretty cool.
Ll try this plugin, but i think i do not tat many comments yet.
