New Wordpress owners may be puzzled by strange blog comments with nonsensical domains and text. These are done by automated spam robots using scripts attempting to get links from your blog. My advice is activating comment moderation so you must approve all comments.

If I designed your custom Wordpress blog theme, comment moderation should already be active. That solves half the problem. From experience I was still getting over 100 spam comments per day that I had to review and then delete.

Today’s tutorial using SI CAPTCHA solved my comment spam problem. The advice in this custom cms training video tutorial allowed me to reduce that 100 per day to zero instantly. The spam robots cannot read graphics, so the CAPTCHA puzzle prevents them from posting comments that the owner must review and delete later.
