I've only had 2 spam comments and it's easy enough to delete them. Really interesting blog this!!!

A guaranteed way to lose comments & readers! It’s horrible when you type a long witty (to you!) comment only to lose it because the verification/sign-in goes wrong isn’t it.

Many times I have tried to comment on different blogs, type the verification, type it again, sign into blogger, only to find I lost my comment! It's very frustrating. Great tip! Amen to that!

Great tip!

Comment moderation is a must, and spambots are an evil problem. Still, I'd like to see the word verification off on brand new blogs, or those with few comments-until you have a problem, all it does is restrict the number of people willing to comment. Good points on encouraging comments, thanks. You don't need to be an expert here, just willing to pass on experiences. :-) Hey Cybercelt, thanks for visiting.

Anyone may comment on my blogs, but I have the verification and moderation on. There are programs that send out blog spam and it was a problem. Something I learned the hard way: take the email this post off your blogs. It allows people to send spam and it appears to be coming from your blog. To increase comments, you may want to offer an incentive for people to comment (contest), visit other blogs and comment makes them beholden to you (LOL), ask a question at the end of your post. Just my ideas and I am no expert. Have a great week. Just visiting for Click and Comment Monday.
