How to Get Rid of Blog Comment Spam

Orange County Search Engine Optimization - SEO Experts - Complete Website Optimization - Business Web Coach

If you have a blog, then you are probably familiar with spam. People will comment on your site for the sole reason of promoting their own blogs. They do not read your posts, they just comment, asking you to sign up for their new pharmaceutical website. Not only is it annoying, but it can also take away from other useful comments. It can also destroy debates and conversations that have been sparked by your post. If you want to know how to get rid of blog comment spam, here are a few tips that can help you.

Many people automatically approve of blog comments. This is a setting on most blogging platforms that will allow anyone to post on your site. This does save time, because you do not have to personally approve of your comments, but it will lead to more spamming. If you are having a blog comment spam problem, you should consider manually approving of all of the comments that go under your posts.

There are also programs that you can use to help eliminate spam. For instance, when you start a Wordpress blog, you will automatically be able to enable a program called Askimet. This program is designed to block blog comment spam. But it is not perfect, and it will need your help to learn. If you discover that a spam conmment has come through, do not just delete it. If you mark it as spam, Askimet will learn not to let similar comments through.

One final option to help you regain control of your blog posts, is to only allow comments from registered users. You can do this at two different levels. You can block all people who are not registered to your blogging platform. Or you can block comments from all people who are not registered to your specific blog.
