DoFollow Blog Comment Spam
Filed Under Do-Follow Info
As this blog becomes more popular I am seeing more comments that, though not obviously spam, add no value to the post or comments of others. Therefore, these comments are seen by me to be spam comments.
I hate to see people go through the work of adding a comment only to have it deleted by me, but I will not allow comments that do not add to the value of the post.
Comments like “This is great info, I now understand this better. I like your blog and layout and will be returning often”.
Although this is a nice, complimentary comment, it does not pass my “smell test”. Compliments don’t necessarily add to the post discussion and this type of comment makes me think it’s a standard comment probably being used across several dofollow blogs.
If you are not going to read my blog post, and comment on the content, I will remove your comment. I don’t mind taking the time to do that, but hate to see people waste their time.
So, to get the most out of commenting on blogs and avoiding being seen as contributing blog spam, I suggest you read my dofollow blog comment rules.
Dofollow blog comment spam has caused popular dofollow blogs to turn nofollow on again. Please do the right thing and contribute quality comments on dofollow blogs.

It happens all the time mate!We must be more responsible as a blogger. This is a very good program in my opinion,but if we don’t be responsible it won’t last long.
sorry,I forget the keywordluv mate!
indeed. i’ve seen this on some other former do follow blogs. they just get inundated by comments, which did not appear to have been posted in good faith, so they decide that their do follow experiment is no longer worth pursuing.
it’s indeed a shame.
still, it’s tricky trying to find the line where a comment becomes a spam comment. for example, strangely enough, i usually am more active on no follow blogs nowadays because i know that if i like what i read i can basically say so, and that’s alright.
you also make a good point in your policy. i’ve had comments flagged as spam recently, and because those flags were directed through akismet, i suffered much grief while waiting for akismet to sort me out.
so sometimes i try to pick and choose where i comment nowadays, and on which post, both because i want to be able to contribute to the discussion, and also because i don’t want to end up in comment limbo again.
The thing is, you don’t really get less spam by having comment links set to nofollow! I’ve dealt with spam comments from automated bots since the day my websites got indexed in the search engines.
Now, it can be very annoying when comments seem thin or excessively complimentary while ignoring the content of the post, but I won’t “spam” people for it. The conditional nofollow plugin is nice, or better yet I’ll approve the comment minus the link!
Hey, I get hecklers that are serious – why not compliments that are serious? Its pretty harsh that someone could end up in Akisment limbo just because they were trying to say something nice.
I agree John,
I don’t flag someone as spam unless it is obviously spam, but my Spam Karma plugin usually traps those comments and removes them for me automatically.
Comments that are questionable, or not up to your standards should not be flagged as spam with Askimet – that’s just wrong.
Just delete those comments.
Sorry someone flagged your comments as spam with Askimet, Kouji.

I think you should use “linkylove”. It should help you get rid of spammy comments and improve the quality of comments. Only regular readers will benefit from dofollow links and you’ll receive quality comments, because most of the spammers will have your blog tagged as “nofollow” and will hence give up on posting spammy comments.
BTW: “This is great info, I now understand this better. I like your blog and layout and will be returning often”.
Just did some copy/paste to save time
Cheers!
Well Mike, this is a “side effect” for turnning on the dofollow. Aside the hunted spam, I’ve seen a lot of comments over mine too just to get a back link and the silly thing is that they are irrelevant!
Dofollow dosn’t mean to accept any comments, right? It means you respect who read your blog and I wonder why people just drop and hurry?
There are 2 problems with dofollow. One is obviously the spammers, especially internet marketers. They really are abusing one of my sites so I may have to add back my nofollow link. But the second problem comes from us, the ones who offer the dofollow. We are the ones who added the dofollow link and this is a free link. How many people can pass up on something that is free? Not too many if we are being truly honest. But all I expect from my free gift is just some respect back from those who benefit from the gift. I totally agree with your post and hope many more will read it and understand. Comment, but show the decency of writing something worthwhile and beneficial for the post. But I’m sure we will never win the war totally against the spammers.
i think it’s 90 °/° of blog comments so if you delete them you will end up with only 4 or 5 comments that discuss the topic of the post
It’s frustrating sometimes to have to manually moderate all those spammy comments. However what is good with Dofollows is that it promotes discussions. As for me, when trying to google for a fresh portion of Dofollows, I sometimes find interesting posts that I really would want to comment on
I like that you spell out your blog comment rules.
It really doesn’t take much time to read the post you’re commenting on, and provide some relevant comments.
Putting a little effort into providing good comments is the least you can do to get back a nice link.
i totally agree with u dude.Good post.
I came back again to this read this part again.
I must say i too have seen most of the spammer too make comments saying this is nice blogs , thanks likewise.
Those are general things. Without coming to the blog even we can say like that.
Then i hope you are in right way.
i agree with you. You are in right way I like that you spell out your blog comment rules.
Thanks
I followed a backlink I have and it brought me to your post. Don’t know how I got the backlink.
Anyway I agree, In my opinion if someone is kind enough to operate a do follow blog than the peeps that comment should at least read the post and comment relevant and add some value. Otherwise were all just Chinese! Yes, Check out some of the Chinese blogs and forums. Some will have 10,000 comments with millions of anchored links! It is hilarious !!
i usually am more active on no follow blogs nowadays b’cause i know that if i like what i read i can basically say so, and that’s alright, (i think).
We are the ones who added the dofollow link and this is a free link. How many people can pass up on something that is free? Not too many if we are being truly honest. But all I expect from my free gift is just some respect back from those who benefit from the gift.
I think those comments are made by software not real people half the time. It is so simple to read a post and then talk about it i see no reason a person can not mention anything about it in thier comment.
Use Recaptcha, Akishmet or other plugins usualy it will catch spammers. But the worst is when someone (maybe bot) post comment with dozens of links inside it.
I’ve be all over the internet the last few days digesting every piece of information I can about Do follow blogs. This was a great post and taught me a lot. I’ve since made my blog do follow. Many Thanks
keywordluv is a great plugin, it gets us the backlinks that we need, so our website will have more traffic drove toward it. thanks for the luv
This is the hardest part when having a dofollow blog. Really keeps comment coming and had no choice to accept it or decline the comment but actually dofollow blogs has an advantage over nofollow blogs.
You’ve really had one great thing to contribute. Thanks for sharing.

thank u friend about informations
Thanks for a Suggestion
blog spamming is one of the reason why most blog site today is no follow site
That is one disgusting looking piece of machinery very cool. ,,, keep open source.
There is too much emphasis on this. Google claims they use this… but they still crawl the links dofollow or not. So they can do whatever they want with the information. In theory they could create a system that looks at linking patterns that are too weighted on direction or the other and filter. But how knows what is really going on. It’s all just guesswork because they are not going to tell you.
I salute you for providing information about blog commenting. thanks
Yes you are defenately right! But I have read in your blog that you said spamming comments are to be deleted by you I think it is not fair because comments passed by visitors what about,it is benificial for your blogs to get more traffic. So I kindly suggest you that please do not delet any comments in your blog but you kindly suggest them

I hear you in your article. I run 100′s of blogs and even with or without comment luv, I need to filter out a lot of junk comments. I don’t think that there is a way around it, personally speaking.

I like how you call it a ‘smell’ test when it comes to detecting blog spam. It is amazing how many different venues are benefited from the occasional smell test. From rodents in the vents to child care, the smell test is a pretty reliable tool.
Do you accept guest posts? I would love to write couple articles here. I was wondering what is up with that weird gravatar??? I know 5am is early and I’m not looking my best at that hour, but I hope I don’t look like this! I might however make that face if I’m asked to do 100 pushups. Lol

Thank you for taking this step. It would be interesting to know how helpful it has been for you personally. I like the idea of do follow blogs, but get very irritated when the bulk of the responses are of the kind, “Great post, I enjoyed reading it,” or “Fantastic blog, keep up the good work.”
thanks for sharing
Why blog owners would never approved even those who are related and gives a big idea on it although they put their names that link back on their site. I know it’s one promoting but as long as it is related it would be fancy things that helps in search engine nevertheless with those great and looks spammy obvious.

Hello

This is a huge topic that cannot be completely covered here. I am a commercial Realtor in Texas, and I deal with development and raw land deals on a regular basis. CAP rate scenarios only truly apply to existing, income-producing properties. All you can do with raw land is create a prospectus. A prospectus is basically a business plan with a bunch of variables, one of which can be a CAP rate on the investment. This is directly tied to the NOI (annual Net Operating Income), which insinuates that the development is already built.

I have tried to follow this tutorial with no success. Your first example code is html but your downloaded code does not include an html document. I tried to take the downloaded code and run it on my web server and it does not present the pages. You get the enter you name box but nothing happens when you do. Also you see some of the code. I guess my question would be is the download code suppose to work.
Here the post is looking good..and well thinking of this one..very nice to see this here..thanks for sharing here with us.
It’s very great article. I would like to appreciate your work and would like to tell it to

You were correct, lately many blog comments are not related to related articles, I also hate it with a comment that just says “hi, nice article”, “great job”, “great work”, etc … I named them as hunters linkback.
