It may have some SEO ramifications for your site, but at the same time, Facebook comments can make your site more interactive.
There are many ways to add Facebook comments to your site. You can always log on to Facebook, create an application ID for your website, and add the above code to your “single.php” file. Don’t forget to change your URL. You can also use Facebook Comments for WordPress to save time adding this functionality to your website.
This is flexible plugin that lets your visitors use their Facebook credentials to leave comments on your website. It supports multiple styles and allows anonymous comments too. Facebook comments can be included on both pages and posts. You also have the option to attach them to WordPress comments or turn WP comments off when you have this enabled.
