How to Prevent Spam Comments on Your Blog  I just got a mail from one of my subscribers asking me how to prevent spam comments on his blog. Spam comments have gotten so much on his blog that he has literarily stopped posting on his blog. It’s being embarrassing! In this post, I will be show you exactly how you can altogether make blog comment spamming a thing of the past.
I can definitely identify with this guy. When I started blogging newly, I used to get countless spam comments every single day. Can Akismet Prevent Spam Comments? I know what some of you are thinking: Akismet can definitely take care of the spams. If you are thinking that, then it’s either you have not been blogging for long or something your blog is being protected by some kind of invisible power from spam comments. There are two major things wrong with Akismet: - I found out that several spam comments find their way into my blogs and that means that I have to spend extra time deleting them to keep my blog posts neat. Who has got that can of time especially with my epileptic internet connection. I have more productive things to do.
- Some of my regular commentators were getting flagged by Akismet as spammers and I just hated spending a lot of time deleting the spam comments and retrieving the genuine comments.
Some others use Conditional Captcha. The good thing about it is that the spam from bots will definitely be a thing of the past. However, the human commenters will get through. It can also be something of a hassle. I assure you that many readers won’t bother with a captcha code. A Plugin That Would Prevent Spam Comments It’s called GrowMap Anti-Spambot Plugin.
