Almost immediately after I migrated from Blogger to WordPress I started receiving comment spam. Not a lot, only 1 post every 1-2 days, but still annoying.
Luckily there are several solutions to fight Spam without the need for every user to register with the blog… and based on a recommendation from _m3 I installed the Akismet WordPress Plugin. What should I say, it works… Akismet is eating my spam and leaving through ham, works like a charm – thus highly recommended for WordPress installations!
