Good evening webmasters in the house, am a new blogger with little or no knowledge on how to run or manage a complete blog (especially the technical aspects). Thats not to say am a block head though as I can make posts, add pictures and all.


Guys my main problem is spam comments... I usually receive tons of spam comments that are unrelated to the posts I make and it's soooo annoying. I used to think it was cool at first and that my work is being appreciated only for me to scrutinize these comments well, and the opposite was the case.


Please what do I do to stop these people/spam bots? Is there any plugin/app am not using on my blog.?

My website is [url]amebohub.com[/url] please check and help me out.


Mods others may have this same problem, help give this a push.

Hey... wonderful blog you've got there. As for the spam comments, try installing anti-spam plugins like akismet.

Thanks, I will try it. Is it a free plugin? Are there any other useful plugins am missing on?

It's a free plugin.

Honestly? Plugins are not your only prob. You've already stated that u aren't experienced in the technical aspect. So it's not your fault. I could guide u on how to address all technical issues on your blog.

Are you on Blogger or WP
If WP, use Akismet plug-in
If blogger, go to settings and enable moderation "Always"

Spouse I'd risk it for some moment of fun n games.

As I can see, your blog is running on WordPress platform. Though Akismet is good and has a number of active installs, more than 1 million. You will agree with me that the free version is all a heck to get started with. The API shit and the rest.

My fellow blogger, I will recommend WP-Spamshield plugin for you. It does the work so perfect without the need of any API shit.

It doesn't encourage CAPTCHA shit too.

Try it and thank me later. It has an encouraging active installs, 100K +

I also use it at http://frankapptech.com
