Watch out for comment spam

I went into my dashboard today to look to see what day I had written a post. While looking through my old posts, I noticed there were comments that I had never seen. When I went to the posts to read them, they were spam.

They started off with some lame "Hey Blogger" and "Hi Blogger", then they left a comment about not seeing what they were looking for. They also left their url in the comment field. You can best believe I deleted all of those comments. People do this because they get credit for their rankings for having incoming links to their site. The bots that crawl your site and look for these links don't realize that they're spam.

I don't mind comments, in fact like most people I love them. But not trashy spam comments. I went in and changed my notifications page so that I receive an email whenever someone leaves a comment. That way, I can get to them sooner and see what everyone has written.
