Spam In My Soups
It's depressing how efficient spambots are. Even though this blog is nowhere near popular, they are exceptionally good at clogging the tubes with literally dozens of garbage comments a day, especially on the posts that show up fairly high under specific Google searches.
I wonder if anyone else here has a WordPress blog and has found good solutions for this problem? I have looked at several possible plugins, but I'm a little reticent to put one into use without knowing the pros and cons or different solutions. I suppose the simplest solution would be some sort of captcha test on comments, but I'm not crazy about adding a layer of extra work for anyone wanting to post a comment, ideally I'd like something effective but non-intrusive.
Is that a fantasy? Does anyone know a good plugin that they could recommend?

I totally agree , I absolutely hate the “Hey there, I subscribed to your RSS Feed” type of comments on my blog. HOWEVER I do get a kick out of comment spam that has absolutely no benefit for the guy spamming , broken links , no anchor text ,ect. I guess I should be upset a little more about it , but akismet is so great about catching things any more.

Dude, I wish I could write articles half as good as you. Your posts are always so well written. Do you outsource it or write it yourself?

But maybe you could a little more in the way of content so people could connect with it better. Youve got an awful lot of text for only having one or two images. Maybe you could space it out better?
