Why is my Blog Site a Target for Spam?
It's been worse over the past couple of weeks. Solicitations for female Viagra, shoes, something in Chinese I can't read, and someone who just says I have a "genial" post. I wonder if anyone else out there is getting the same. Perhaps it's because I have been inactive for a while on my site, and browsers think I wouldn't notice, except for the fact I have my comments moderation function turned on. Any advice on how to be less of a target, anyone?

Thank you, Anonymous. I appreciate the compliment. I hope to get back to blogging this summer after things at work settle down.
Hey, possibly this post is not on topic but in any event, I have been browsing about your site and it looks really neat. It is easy to see I am creating a new blog and I am struggling to make it look great, and supply excellent subject matter. I have learned a lot here and I look forward to additional updates and will be returning.
Thank you! I've done some researching and found out that it is common practice now for people to try inserting "backlinks" in people's blog sites to generate traffic to their own website. You can avoid this by turning on comment moderation on your own blog so that you get an e-mail showing the comment, then you can decide to accept it or reject it. If you allow a backlink to be posted, it is like flies to stink, more people will flock to try posting more.
