Comment spam is one of the hazards of running open comments on any blog or website. I’ve dealt with nearly 5,000 spam comments on my blog, and I don’t have nearly the traffic of any of the huge blogs out there. But recently my comment spam stopped dead because of four easy to use WordPress [...]
I’ve decided to move my site over to PowWeb.com. The transition is going to be less than smooth, unfortunately, as I had to completely reinstall Wordpress from scratch and import my articles.
