Comment spam is the bane of blogging. We’ve all seen it in blog comments - either outright ads for porn, drugs or gambling, or meaningless comments (”Nice site!”) with the spam URL included. This kind of spam is more than just a nuisance for the blogger - it provides valuable linkbacks for the spammers; plus it gives a bad impression to readers. So it’s important to keep spam off your blog.
For Wordpress users, the Spam Karma plugin is the answer. Very easy to install, it straightaway starts blocking spam and can be configured to various strengths. You can even choose to put a little counter in your blog’s footer to tell readers how much spam Spam Karma has “eaten”.
