Hello fellow reader,
I’m quite sure that you have also been a victim of spammers somehow so I’m gonna share my experience with my blogs.
I started receiving some visitors after writing a few articles in this blog. If you are a regular reader you have noticed that I always try to share my experiences that will hopefully help others avoiding some mistakes I made in the past. Unfortunately some webmasters think that the best way to spend their time is by spamming their websites everywhere. In my several blogs I always try some different approaches to stop the spammers and of course some are more effective than others. I have tried several addons but until today I haven’t found any that works perfectly, either because they don’t block all spammers or because they block comments from my visitors. So I tried something different… In one of my blogs I just placed a small note next to the comments box saying that all comments are manually approved and the spamming decreased around 80%. Of course this technique won’t those spammers that use software for their “work” but the ones that do it manually will think twice before they submit garbage as comments.
Don’t waste your time spamming. Use it to do something useful.
