To Blog or Not To Blog ?

[dmiller90]

use Askimet with your blog so you don't have to worry about deleting spam comments. It automatically does it for you. I installed in on my blog at Cost Savings Tips for all your important expenses

I think you better check your website, before showing it off.

Ive read good reviews about askiment. You don't have to worry much about legitimate comments being blocked. It can still let a few spam comment through - but the margin of error is small.

FYI for those of you looking for the wordpress anti-spam plugin: the correct spelling is "akismet". No matter how you spell it, it works wonders!

You'll also want to make sure you keep your wordpress install up-to-date as there's the constant cat-and-mouse game of finding and plugging holes between spam-hackers and wordpress developers. If you're running your blog at wordpress.com, you don't have to worry about this.

heheh! Thanks Aaron for the clarification. Any spam blocker you could recommend for blogspot or livejournal users?

More or less...you still need to click on the "update wordpress" button if, and when, they make updates Wordpress rocks. We've hired someone to help us maintain and manage our blog, saving LOTS of headaches - check them out at sustainablesocialmarketing.com/blog-manager-blog-management/

I also enjoy blogging with Wordpress. Obama-related blog articles have become quite popular.
