My comment spam has gotten out of control, so I took measures. Drastic measures. By Top Men. Top….Men….
It’s worked. I’ve had no comment spam in several weeks now. And now I know how much of my traffic came from spammers. More specifically, spammers for Viagra or payday loans. It appears about half to two-thirds of my traffic was spammers. My page hits have fallen off considerably since I fought back.
Am I disappointed? Not really. I suspected this was going on for some time. I suppose it could also because I’ve become more boring lately. That’s also a strong possibility.
So I care? Well, I clearly don’t care enough to try and make this post longer. 🙂
UPDATE: Clearly I also don’t care enough to proof-read. I’m tempted to fix this, but I’ll let it stand.
I love your Raiders of the Lost Ark reference.
Okay, if you hadn’t already earned my certification as an “Official Cool Person”, you would have now! As RotLA references go, that’s not one of the more obvious ones–nor does it give nearly as much to go on as some. I am impressed!
That’s Robyn. “Official Cool Person”. 🙂
Oh, stop! You’re making me blush!
Sorry… But what can I say? That’s the truth!
