And my site is a review site.

I've been getting the usual comments about viagra and other meds (funny considering I have a freelance writing blog) but I would say the veggies comments takes the cake!

Maybe. Seems a strange strategy though. Still, their problem, not mine. And it did make me laugh! (especially as the 'keyword' they wanted in their link was Webcam Girls!)

these guys are unbelievable; but it really makes me wonder.. where does all this persistence come from ? I mean.. they must be getting SOME results.. or else.. they enter the definition of insanity:

"insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results"..

Of course they are getting some result. That's
why they continue,

If they were only losing time/money they won't
still be at it. Like another warrior here said,
many people don't spend time enough on their
sites, so they just approve such comments
without thought.

Surely if enough people mark these comments as spam then Aksimet will start automatically marking them as spam for everyone?

Unfortunately these blog spamming tools allow the spammers to post a different random comment to each blog, and to use proxies, which somewhat reduces the ability of Akismet to identify them. Though you are right, if they post too many their IP address/es get/s blacklisted - I have seen BlueFartters (<-- never typed that here before, love the word replacement, he he) complaining that Wordpress blogs are very hard to post comment spam to. But an initial few always get through.

Thanks for letting us know that - I always mark people like this as spam. Hopefully enough people will do so that the Wordpress platform stays pretty clean.

Thanks for posting. I was starting to think that I was doing something wrong. I keep getting the most RIDICULOUS spam comments on my site.

For example, here's what I got today on my website for Heartworm Prevention (Heartworm Disease is a disease in dogs caused by mosquitoes):

"Too bad he isn't going to live near Boston. I learn a woman near his age group that
can't seem to find the suitable guy. And she has an excellent career, too."

What does this have to do with Heartworm disease? And who is "HE"..My dog? :confused:

Nope - that was the comment itself. The hyperlinked words were 'webcam girs.'

I get this sort of comment "Wonderful post. Keep up the good work!", and the comment has been left on my Privacy Policy page!

Makes you wonder why they do it - there must still be a lot of blogs out there that don't have moderated comments.

Still, when my happiness is overflowing I often feel the urge to tell the world about it in a language in which I am not well versed. Like English.

On that note I find it amusing when you find a list from which to choose your language and two of the options are English and English (UK). lol

Though common, I normally receive the, oh wow, this is great information, thanks for the great post.

Or, this was great. Thanks for sharing.

People have a propensity for using the word "great" it seems. However, if a comment is funny enough, I'm more than happy to leave it to reward creativity.

Thanks

Unfortunately this strategy IS working - some quite reputable-looking sites, when you look at their backlink profiles, have got where they are with these random spammy comments (using Xrumer, or if not 3rd- party 'SEO services' who do). All too many of these 'comments' are staying up. Why, I don't know, I terminate them with extreme prejudice but I guess if you fire off a few thousand some are bound to stick...

I did.

First result was this thread on Warrior Forum!

And third or fourth result was indeed a short story on a site called Literotica.com. I originally thought it was some weird cross between bad translation and article spinning.

The other day I got an email informing me of a new comment to approve... I read it, it was about Black Ops, good comment, no spelling errors... except the comment about Black Ops (xbox 360 game) was on a post about We Rule (iPhone Game) so go and figure! Maybe I should find myself "grinning into the saucepan of vegetables cooking on the stovetop" a bit more often lol

There are funny spammers. And there are 'honest' spammers who admit that they are commenting just to get a link

Google this: "I just want to get a backlink from you"
