Default What's the deal with Blog spam!
My blog has been on my site for 3 weeks. I have 3 posts on it. Since last week I have been getting inundated with spam from someone called "nipfinaway" who sells cheap viagara! He (I am assuming its a he with awful grammar) spams me everyday with 3-4 copies of the same thing.

As a rule I just delete spam since its my understanding that marking it as spam can actually increase the spam you get. However, the first time I got the first of his "comments" on my blog I marked them as spam before I moderated them out. Since then I have just deleted his comments immediately. But it doesn't stop him, he just keeps coming back!

As a new blogger, what's the deal with this. Does it just get worse as time goes on? Does anyone (Brianna) have any words of wisdom to make it stop.

Thank you!
