How to ensure you get Facebook notifications when someone comments on your site

Disclaimer: How ironic is it that this post about how to ensure that you actually get Facebook notifications when someone comments on your site has amassed many comments from people saying that the method did not work for them, and I never noticed because I was not getting notification of comments. :/ I do not know when, but at some point this method stopped working dependably. I plan to look into this, but I also will update this post soon with another method for getting comment notifications.

Facebook’s Comments plugin is a great way to operate comments on your blog. It increases social interaction as people’s comments are shared on Facebook as well as on your page, and it reduces problems associated with anonymous commenters.

However, Facebook will not, by default, let you know when someone comments on your blog. In most cases, you will want to get notifications so you can maintain some moderation of the comments.

Visit the Facebook Comments Moderation tool page on the Facebook Developers site. Click “Settings” over on the right hand side. This will open some basic settings for your comments box.

You can enter your own name to select your Facebook profile as a moderator. Also, enter any other friends who will be monitoring comments for your site.

Here are the settings I recommend:

Now, you should get a Facebook notification whenever someone comments on your site.

If this doesn't work, return to the comments moderation tool settings screen. Take note of the Application ID at the top, then double check to ensure it is the same number that you find in the “FB:App_id” meta tag.
