Fighting Comment Spam

There’s a very intelligent woman who writes a blog called geeksmakemehot.com. According to a recent post on her blog she has turned off commenting due to excessive comment spam. This kind of thing is happening a lot around the blog sphere but when some of the more intelligent bloggers are doing it I have to ask why. There are certainly enough anti-spam plugins for WordPress to counter the comment spam phenomenon so anyone using WordPress shouldn’t have much of a problem. I find the combination of Bad Behavior and Spam Karma 2 with it’s Akismet plugin (link not working as of this writing) works very well. Though it sounds like a lot it was quick and very easy to set up. I highly recommend this setup if you have spam comment problems on WordPress blog.
