I have had a lot of problems with blog spammers personally I have found invisible captcha’s to be useful. Although some accessibility is hindered, it is generally only to those who have hindered themselves (i.e. turned javascript off).

Food for thought – Invisible captcha. Makes use of javascipt and cookies, something most blog spamming applications cannot use.

Good article

We are currently having this issue even with capthca on postpropaganda. I spend my days deleting spam post and now have implemented a system where my goes off anytime a link is posted. it’s a pain right now but I’m sure as we grow in moderators it’ll be more manageable.

I disagree with you Harsh Agrawal, if you have enabled capcha also many spam tools can break capcha security and can send spams messages. The capcha will only add an additional security to our blog. But these spam tools will fail if you enabled some other antispam tools or plugins that can do user agent check ip check etc..

I once integrated BBPress with WordPress and after a week or so I started getting approx 40 SPAM registrations in WordPress! I searched a lot and used lots of plugins but this problem was not getting solved. I was fed up as none of the Plugins were working.

Then I suddenly realized that because WordPress & BBPress DB are both integrated, SPAMMERS were registering using BBPress registration form and not touching WordPress.

So I deleted the registration page from BBPress and that was the end to my problems. It was a hell of a task

Even Dofollow blogs are always loved by spammer for easy and quick free backlinks.I used to spend lots of time on forums earlier, specially DP and few forums. These days I hang out at Pro blogger forum which is for webmasters and bloggers forum. And the best part is it is highly moderated. .-= Harsh Agrawal´s last blog ..[CPANEL] Error from park wrapper: Using name servers with the following IPs [Solved] =-.
