Simply drag the Widget into place, write a title and description text, pick a color and your blog is ready for some serious comment action.<\/p>\n\n<p>Just remember, keep your posts quality and you will attract quality comments.<\/p>\n\n<p>Let the games begin!<\/p>\n\n<!--section=installation-->\n<ol>\n<li>Upload <code>comments-leaderboard<\/code> to the <code>\/wp-content\/plugins\/<\/code> directory<\/li>\n<li>Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress<\/li>\n<li>Go to Appearance &gt; Widgets and find the 'Comments Leaderboard' Widget.
