Blog Commenting Spam – Some Tips

Blog spam commentsBlog commenting – apparently, my one of my blog’s has attracted a huge Russian following with some thoughtful comments, but more so with comments like these. I have my doubts about the accuracy of the translation.

Blog CommentsBlog commenting spam

Obviously, these comments aren’t worth the characters it took to write them, so why write them at all? Maybe they’re a test to determine if they could spam my blog with advertisements instead? I’ve seen plenty of those for everything from dental implants and window replacements to advertisements for porn related services.

Comment spamming protection

For users running WordPress sites, Askimet does a fairly good job at weeding out spam, but I still moderate all comments to make sure nothing gets through that shouldn’t – and so should you.

Website SecuritySecurity cannot be overlooked

As if comment spamming wasn’t bad enough, my blogs are constantly bombarded with cybercriminals attempting to brute force login their way to either deface my site or add malicious content. Fortunately, I use various security measures to stop them in their tracks, and you should too. It’s a dangerous world on the Internet as we know it today.

When we start seeing web hosting providers and security journalists get hit with massive DDoS attacks, it’s no longer a small matter. Neither are the latest security breaches reported recently. You can never be too safe. And always, always backup your sites remotely.

Please update every one of your passwords regularly

Even though I warn everyone I know to change their passwords at least once every six months, I know some of them haven’t done that in years. Please don’t let Murphy’s Law catch up to you as it will at the most inopportune time.

WordPress Blog CommentsComments are very welcome

It’s one thing to write content which you believe is value add, but it’s very rewarding when your readers acknowledge that you’ve touched at least one subject that inspired them to action, or gave them reason to ponder, or answered a question about something that they were unsure of or had just never considered before. Unfortunately, we all lead very busy lives and don’t always find the time for commentary. When you do read an article or blog that enriches you in some way, it can’t hurt to reach out and share your experience.
