If the blog owner thinks you're linking to them, you have a better chance of your comment being approved. This is a trick with W@rdPress

Download and install this plugin:
Code:
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/exec-php/

Create a new WP page, name it Featured Site, Site of Interest, Cool Site, whatever....

Add this code to it:

I'm not pasting exactly what I use, as noobs will ccp it without spinning it at all.
Code:
Here's a cool site:<a href=http://<?php
echo $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'];
?>>http://<?php
echo $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'];
?>

I used HTTP_HOST rather then REFERER, chances are the blog owner would be coming to your site via their admin panel, and you don't want their admin panel showing as the referring url. In your comment, make a reference that you linked to them, and include your WP url.

They'll see you gloating over their site, and better your chances of your comment sticking.

Happy Scraping! :cool:
 
similar version had been shared before and I think the same issue would be : you'd have to disallow index of that site etc or if they come from google etc it kinda looks weird. of course only works if they actually click the link and not just copy and paste it or when they recheck...
 
That was the wrong code, this is the right one:
Code:
<?
   $referer = $_SERVER["HTTP_REFERER"];
   $ipaddress = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];	//  Requestor IP addr
   $request_uri = ltrim($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'],'/');
if($_SERVER["HTTP_REFERER"])
{
   $parsed = @parse_url(strtolower($referer));
   if($parsed[host] && !eregi(strtolower("YOURDOMAIN.COM"),$parsed[host]))
   {
	  echo '<a href="http://';
	  echo str_replace("statistics.","www.",str_replace("stats.","www.",$parsed[host]));
	  echo '/" target="_blank">http://www.';
	  echo ucfirst(str_replace("statistics.","",str_replace("stats.","",str_replace("www.","",$parsed[host]))))."</a>";
   }
}
?>
