Readers Please Contact Me IF…
Alright this will be a short post because I am asking you guys to help yourself and help me. I have notice that a lot of genuine comments are going into the spam box. Not in the Pending Box, but in Spam Box. If you never see your comment on one of the posts, don’t make a duplicate comment instead you should head over to my contact page, and check the option feedback. And write to me with your name which you commented with, with the email address, and the website that you used.
I have noticed that a lot of the genuine comments were in the spam box as I checked, and I am sure I missed a lot of them because I was just taking a quick look.
Some ways you can prevent this from happening is use your name when you comment rather than a long keyword like make money online or something like that because spam detectors does not like that name.
Also if you ever have a problem with the website, send me an email instead writing a comment because when you write a comment, i might not even see it if it is in the spam box.
I just wanted to clear things up with my readers.
Hey, I am Syed Balkhi, The guy who is behind Balkhis Inc. I entered the industry back in 2002 not knowing a single thing. I barely spoke English at that time. In the past six years, my language barrier has been eliminated. Aside from English, now I also speak html, and php. Along with the languages I have also managed to master a few arts. Art of web-designing started when I first entered. Messing around with photoshop, I learned how to create my first web design. Now I founded a web designing firm Uzzz Productions. After running numerous amount of websites in various niche, I have mastered the art of web-development. Now I am compiling a resource of what I already know, and what I am learning on this blog. This resource is to help me if I ever need a guide to look back to, and it is help my fellow webmasters.
I’ve checked few of mine, and it seems that they are fine and online. Guess i am lucky
It seems like I’m lucky either
Hey Balkhis, how about adding a simple CAPTCHA code to the comment boxes. It’d really cut down on your spam intake, making it easier for you to see genuine comments.
Adding a CAPTCHA code is a good idea to cut down on spam. I’ve added it to my blog and spam has been cut down considerably!
If only all the other blogs sites were as observant as you, a lot of my comments on others I never see but they hardly ever check their blogs.
I have done that and I must compliment you on the way you have responded. Thank you.
I’m sure you are using Akismet plugin too. Most of my new comments are in spam too. I don’t know what methods Akismet uses to catch this spams. Good to know that you are aware and clear about this to your readers.
I don’t think my comments have slipped into the spam box.
They seem to go right through.
