I’d recommend anyone with a reasonably popular blog software to keep an eye on their comments section. I’ve recently gotten single-link spam entries that are hard to filter out automatically. An RSS-Feed for your comments helps to track these down quickly.

    The blogs I post to require you to manually enter a number that’s listed above the comment field, or you can’t post. This keeps spammers out – I assume you mean these are automated, right?

    Yes, I was talking about automated comment spam. Using a simple blacklist gets rid of most of these though — for now.
