How to stop Comment Spam
I’m not sure what everyone else uses, but the most reliable service to stop comment spam on my site has been the Askimet plugin for wordpress. I dont know what I would do without it. A little over six months ago I got hit with some serious comment spam and I had to do a few hours of manual deleting to get all the comments off my site. After this experience I decided to fight back in ensure my site was protected.
So far Askimet has really made a difference in the spam moderation on my blog. I don’t know why I decided not to use it from the beginning.
If you don’t have this installed, you definitely should consider it. You can download the most updated version here. Its has really helped with all the comment spam I’ve been getting. I’m not too sure why this is, but it has almost tripled in just a little over the past three months.
How much spam do you get on your site??? Any ideas to why I get so much?
