WordPress Spammer Strangeness
Yesterday, I shut down one of my WordPress blogs and redirected it to a different site (non-WordPress) where I moved what little content I had on the WP blog.
It didn't have much content but it had a little. (Very little: two quality articles plus a welcome message.)
I have backlinks to that site. Not many, but enough that it can be found.
It was up and running for over a year. In all that time, there were maybe a half dozen spam comments.
I have another WordPress blog that's been under construction for ages. No content except for the generic WordPress welcome message. This blog has been active for a little over a year. There are no backlinks to it. I never linked to the site anywhere because there was nothing on it.
Yet, that blog gets hit by spam comments on a daily basis. They all go into moderation so none of them display on the site, but the spambots hit it daily.
Doesn't make a lot of sense to me.
