For a long time I have watched with dismay as my e-mail has reported a lot of trackback and referrals to posts on my blog from places on the Internet that I would not personally visit. I have pretty much ignored the problem up until now figuring that most people who would read my blog would know that spam is a way of life on the Internet. The other day I saw a couple of comments pop up that were definitely spam, they had the same wording telling my site has blogging potential (since that is all I have done I would hope it does) and then a key word. I decided that as much as I hate to censor anything on my site I also don't need that. I went through and deleted the comments and now I am going to try to figure out a way to go back and remove all of the trackback entries. I am hoping that will help out with the signal to noise ratio on my blog and I will try to make sure I post worthwhile information.
