My Favorite Blogspams
Tue, Oct 17, 2006
I’ve been running Akismet on this blog since day one and it’s been absolutely fantastic at catching blog spam. The false positive percentage has been nearly zero - somewhere in the 0.01% range. I normally sort through the akismet stuff every other day and double check for any errors. I’ve gathered up a few of my favorite spams for your entertainment:

It’s really funny that you made links in this post to those… and only with rel=”external” (not nofollows.) Very funny. I thought you said this blog was serious.

nofollow: I was actually just too lazy to edit the html of the post directly - hehe. I also went back and added a
to the deadly serious but just for you Brian

Altough I love Akismet too and I promoted it heavily myself, this new math plugin actually stops EVERY ONE of those 50 to 100 spam comments that Akismet catches, simply because they are not human inserted.
You’ge got to try it.
And if you use it in conjunction with Akismet, you can find spammers that are actually human, too.

I think there is a lot spam from http://www.linkbuildingblog.com/2006/09/secrets_to_beat.html#comment-24138689

Interesting that you are having that much success with Akismet. I never bothered to set it up because I thought it wouldn’t really work (my bad). I shut off my comments / trackbacks on my blog because of comment spam. It looks like I will have to revisit the plug in and see how it works.
BTW - I listen to rockstars all the time. Thanks for the great info…I am from Alberta, so we are practically neighbours!

Perhaps am receiving tons of spam messages daily and it always took many hours to delete all those(I am talking about the time when I didn’t have Akismet) but now it only took a few seconds to get rid of that.
