I have listed a huge list of PageRank 2 to PageRank 7 Wordpress blogs with Top Commentators Wordpress Plugin. It seems that there is a lot of people debating about the strategy used.

Personally, I think that this is a good way to position your blog and do a little give back to your reader (more accurately commentators). Since the blog owner is the one who control the plugin and comments. 

Benefits of Top Commentators

  1. Have return commentators. When commentators are motivated to be on top, they will come back and read your blog and they will leave a comment by giving their idea. If their idea is not constructive or not related, you could delete them.
  2. Give credit those who contribute to your content of your homepage. This is just small credit when you are holding their comment as long as your blog live.
  3. Your which are few days old may be updated for some time before becomming dead. This is good as content is refreshed.

The negative side of Top Commentators Plugin, never forget the negative side.

  1. Blog owner will definately face SPAM, but Akismet does most of the job while those who slip through could be deleted easily. Nevertheless, it requires time to maintain healthy blog content with healthy comments.
  2. Time to control comments and reading it.
  3. Loyalty of commentators is questionable when you lose some ranking.

Here is some of the option you could edit from your Top Commentators Plugin

First top circle is to control the refresh priod. When set weekly, every 7 days Top Commentators will be empty. Recommended to be shorter period once you have more commentators.

Second Circle is to filter some of the bad words (which i have removed) or some obvious advertising word like drugs, vulgar words or xxx stuff.

Third circle is specifically filtering out an url when the website owner is really bothering you a lot. I do not have any until now, do not believe you need it but it is a protection you could get.
