I accept more or less any (decent) comment on my blogs but when it is just pure spam and adds nothing to the blog at all, I delete.

i have a lots of blogs. my procedure is that i accept all the comments but not every link. whenever i feel that this is spammer and his comments are relevent to discussion then his comment show without any link on it.

This is why I stick to Nofollow policy. I want people to visit my site because of the contents, and not because they want to come to get some link juice. I want quality comments because I like responding back to quality comments. The worst comments are, “Great post!! Here is my (link)”

When you take off nofollow tags, you have to expect spams Jesper. As long as you monitor what gets posted into the comments, you should be fine.

It’s good to have comment policy in every blog. This way commenting on the blog would be moderated, and it will also give guidelines for readers on how they will comment on a particular post. And it will also encourage readers to comment sensibly and on topic.

Jesper I think what you decided is pretty much fair for those who really wants to continue discussing the topic of your blog and at the same time earning points from backlinks here. Thanks alot for clearing your policy on this.

It’s a strange thing to listen that many useless comments appeared with your decision to change approval moderation. Maybe try to make some restriction and rewards system, like how much comments and reward points has a visitor? It’s will blow away “link-wanters”, as we call them in our country. Only people who really interested in your materials will remain your valued friends.

I think as long as the comment adds relevant information to the conversation bloggers should approve the comment. You might try adding a captcha to filter the spam bots.
