Manage Your Blog Comments With Intense Debate

If you have been following this blog, you have probably noticed that I have been using Disqus to manage comments on this blog more effectively. Disqus is a great blog comment management system but it’s not the only service you can use to manage comments and reduce spam on your blog. Intense Debate is another powerful blog comment system that should be considered by anyone who’s using Wordpress on her blog.

Intense Debate is very easy to install. All you have to do is create an account and download the Wordpress plug-in to start managing your blog comments. If you have a blog that already has a lot of comments, you should import your comments just to be on the safe side. Here is where things get interesting. Intense Debate comes with a lot of options. You want to make sure you choose the ones that protect your blog the best against spammers.
If you are planning to use Intense Debate to create a real community around your Wordpress blog, you should pay attention to Sync WP Comments feature. You do want to import your comments into Intense Debate to get the conversation going on all your posts. You also want to sync your WP Post Data to make sure all the changes you make to your blog are reflected on Intense Debate too. As far as comments for mobile devices feature is concerned, you should stick with Wordpress for now as Intense Debate is still not compatible with all mobile gadgets.
Overall, Intense Debate is another cool comment management service for Wordpress. It’s free and very powerful. I still would like to see video/audio comment integration on Intense Debate. Other than that, this is a solid solution to help you moderate your comments and catch spammers before they can do your blog any harm.
Your take: which one do you prefer, Intense Debate or Disqus?
