BLAM - Blog Spam

by Admin 18. July 2009 05:44

An interesting but annoying twist has Bloggers targeted for Spam. People found Google is indexing Blog posts. Posting your positive comment almost guarantees it will be included in the Blog (moderated) comments. The result is the links that are imbedded receive another inclusion in the URL indexer rating system. I have listed a post example below:

 

Notice when I highlight KIM above, notice what the URL is below "her" name.

This is another annoyance that moderators have to deal with. I will be implementing the CAPTCHA, or some other logic based system to make moderating a little easier. Some simple rules to get your negative post to show on my Blog you wonder?

1. Don't link to other sites to increase your Google rating or sell your wares.
2. Don't use profane language.
3. Expound on a compelling argument, don’t dis the Blogger for Blogging the issue.
4. No automated responses.

I would consider it a blessing to receive constructive criticism that is well thought out. I welcome all opinions.

About the author

A little crazy, a little conservative, with a dose of normalness sprinkled on for good measure. I try to spend my life trying to get out of the box I'm used to thinking myself into!
