Howdy, i read your blog from time to time and i own a similar one and i was just
wondering if you get a lot of spam remarks? If so how do
you stop it, any plugin or anything you can suggest?
I get so much lately it’s driving me crazy so any help is very much appreciated.
I use WordPress and it has a plugin called Akismet which stops the majority of spam comments, but still occasionally a few still get through. I am not familiar with what other blogging engines use, but I am happy for the most part with Akismet.
