Spam Comment. How to …

If you like me, whos has a blog exposed very hard to spammer, sure it wis a boring task to delete all the spam comments.

Maybe for 1st month, you can tolerate with those spammers. You go through every comments inside your spam comment’s folder. 

Sound like you ?

But then, you realise, almost the comments inside the spam folder are really a spam comment.

Comments like "Awesome template, where you got it?" repeatedly sucked inside your spam folder. At last, you decide to hit the button "delete all". Easy….

But how sure are you that the comments are really a spam comment ?

Here are some tips to detect the kind of that comment.

1. Username is not a username

Can you differiciate between a username of "Make Money Online" and "Johan Chow" ?
Which one do you think is a username? :)

Most of the time, spammers used a keyword to make a comment. This happen for most of do follow’s blog like mine.

The more comments there successfully penetrate inside the blog, the highest the backlinks there get.

 

2. Email 

If your commenters really sincire to give a comment, it should not a problem for them to give a real email. At least, look like real. :)

if the email used is like "2jasd9@sdaffuijh89123.com" then it is a spam comment. 

 

3. The comment

Your post was about a healthy lifestyle but you got a comment like;

"Nice template" :) .

That are the 3 tips from me. Actually, what I am trying to say is, whicever techniques you tried to get rid of the spammers, they always come with something more powerful.

PS : For wordpress users, use Akismet !
