How do you handle spam comments?

Posted on | September 22, 2008 |

Ok, let’s talk about blog spam.

Have you tried to experience being flooded by comments that are irrelevant and pure advertisement in one of your posts? If you’ll ask me, I did and it’s not just once or two time but a couple of times.

The first few months that I tried blogging, there were no spam filter that was available, there were even no validation codes to filter the comments. That is why, if you get flooded, expect that you’ll spend time deleting those comments.

Thanks to the software makers though, because after awhile, they created spam filtering software and validation codes to sift right comments from bad ones. Hence I am using wordpress (in most of my blog platform), I am also using the spam karma 2 plugin. I downloaded it from here and you can also visit the owners page here

Of course its free. The only thing that you need to do is to download it, unzip the file, drop the unzipped file in your plugin folder and activate it in your dashboard.
