User:Blog Commenting service

As a website owner myself fighting spam is my number one priority. I receive hundreds of messages on my website on a daily basis from my site visitors and some of the messages are spam. It takes me more than an hour every day moderating messages but it is worth my time and effort.

In case you are wondering what spam is all about; it is all about unwanted messages and links that some people leave on other peoples websites or blogs. The only way to eliminate this is by setting up all comments for moderation.

What this means is that as the owner of the blog, you have to moderate all comments before they can show up on your blog. You have the authority to approve, trash, or flag any unwanted messages and links as spam.

Moderating blog commenting service is time consuming; it takes me more than an hour to moderate comments on a daily basis because this is the only way I can keep spam messages out of my blog. At one point I wanted to close comments but I thought doing that would only hurt people who are genuinely interested in communicating with me.

I learn a lot from my site visitors and I really enjoy interacting with them. They know what they want and hence ask me to provide them with what they really like. This helps me stay on top of my internet marketing game without wasting much of my time doing research like most people do.

I interact with my site visitors through the messages they leave on my website every day, and trust me they are very honest. If they don't like a post they will post a comment and I listen to them because they have made me what I am today; a better blogger.

I visit many blogs and websites on a regular basis most of them have closed comments and I don't blame the owners because I know that keeping spam messages out of your site requires moderation and it is a very hard thing to do but I have gotten used to it.

I always think about my site visitors, who are not spammers, closing the comments would only hurt them. I know how frustrating it is if you are trying to comment on something and there is no way of doing it. This is why I think moderating blog comments every day is worth the time.
