The spam has got to stop!!

   Posted by: Kim   in blogging

I have been spending my last few days deleting spam after spam after spam.  This blog and one of my other ones Life With Kim seems to than provillus
be hit the hardest.  I have gotten a lot of spam before, but nothing like I have been getting these past few days.  On my other blog I had to delete well over 100 comments just this morning and I almost deleted a real comment while I was deleting.

So…this has got to stop.  So later on I am going to install the comment closed plug in on all my blogs and hopefully this will solve this problem.  I don’t have all hours in the day just to sit here and delete spam, so hopefully by installing this plug in, this will solve my problem.  If it doesn’t, I really don’t know what to do next?!

I don’t know what blogging platform you’re using, but I’ve noticed my comment spam on both my Blogspot and WordPress blogs has gotten ridiculous. On Blogspot I moderate comments; on WordPress I have the Akismet plugin that puts suspicious looking comments on hold and lets your regular commenters through. It works really well…I’m still deleting the spam manually to make sure no real commenters are missed, but there’s an automatic delete feature that makes it even easier. It just boggles my mind how many comments the spambots generate in a day’s time… I wish I had that many real visitors!

Good luck!
