I was just mentioning in my last post that I’ve been getting a lot of comment spam lately.

Have you found that you’re getting more comment spam lately? Has it really increased or is it just my sites that are getting a lot more than usual?

I’m getting hit on by spammers from Croatia, Russia, Turkey and India. Oh sure there are spammers from other countries too, but the four countries above are hitting my sites the hardest and they don’t just leave one comment … no they have to leace ten or twelve at a time, all saying “nice site” or something about diet pill reviews.

when will it end!

I’ve actually taken to blocking ip addresses or whole domains from many of my sites. I know that will make it harder for legitimate visitors to leave a comment, but if it weren’t for those people ruining things for the rest I wouldn’t have to do that.

How do you handle comment spam?
