How To Install Facebook Comments On Your Website

As you must have heard, Facebook has recently launched their new commenting system which allows website/blog owners to install it on their website/blog and allows their readers to comment on it via their Facebook profile login. In short, its an easy and a convenient way for the readers to comment easily on the website as it doesn’t require much effort to insert more info while commenting. Here in this article, I’m just trying to explain how it can be installed on a blog/website.


If I add more, I think it’s a great way to make your articles go viral because when a user comments via Facebook comment, it also gets posted to that particular user’s profile and this way, it gets published to a Facebook wall for every comment you receive via a Facebook user. This is great because your content can go viral in a huge way! I love it for this reason but it still lacks lot of features so I prefer not to implement it on my blog at the moment.

How to install the comments form on your web page
  1. The first step is to visit the Facebook Comments plugin page and register your website. Click the "Get Code" button then click the "registering your site" text link. A new page will open and on that page you can enter your website’s URL. This link will take you to the page to "create an application" or "register your site".
  2. Once you create an application, you will be presented with a page that displays your site’s App Id. Copy it and return to the Facebook Comments page.
  3. Paste your App Id into the "Unique ID" field.
  4. Click "Get Code".
  5. That’s it! You now have the code that you can paste into your website to display a Facebook comments form.
