I get some interesting spam comments on my blog, most of which are captured by Akismet, WordPress’ spam blocker. I generally do a mass delete of all of my spam comments after checking to see if any legitimate comments got caught up in Akismet’s spam-catching net.
I thought it might be fun to select a particularly interesting or unique or outrageous spam comment and highlight it each week.
This week’s featured spam comment was from Tara Laffoon, whose comment made on a post I wrote in response to one of Dr. Tanya’s Blogging Insights prompts.
hello there and thank you for your information – I’ve certainly picked up something new from right here. I did however expertise some technical issues using this site, since I experienced to reload the site a lot of times previous to I could get it to load correctly. I had been wondering if your hosting is OK?

Tara, I’m sorry about the technical issues you’ve been having on my site and that you had to reload it a lot of times. I’m not sure if my “hosting is OK.” My blog is hosted at WordPress, and WordPress can be buggy. I’ll immediately reach out to the Happiness Engineers and let them know about the “sluggish loading instances.” Thank you for this heads up and I’m sorry you’ve had issues reading my respective intriguing content.

I haven’t been getting much spam, but after doing some Daily Prompts I am getting a slew of random followers, either with no blogs or just one post up. I let them stay, but it’s really pointless as I know they aren’t going to comment…
