Are Comment Spammers Paid?

Posted on | May 27, 2008 |

I  wonder  this because  I am always checking  Akismet  for comments that  are  okay. What is weird is  that   some days a person with the same name and email leave three different  comments two are defintely spam and one would be something normal with something that  adds to the conversation.  I see all the  time  those flashy  online banner ads that  scream  stuff  like,  “make  gobs   of   money  working  on th internet,”  quit   your  job and make money online” they  are very tempting offers but I know there  is   always   a  catch for something.  I  wonder is  making   spammy comments a  job  people actually  get  paid   to do? Don’t you think  for the  most part, this whole idea is moot because  how many bloggers  actually  let these  comments  go through.

When I was on blogger and  I  just started  out, I didn’t have  my   first comment for  months.  I was  so excited  because   I  love  comments. Well later on I find out  the   comment was Spam and  it  didn’t  move  over here.  I  have a  tough  time getting  rid of those  spammers that  actually leave  a   worthwhile  comment.   I  guess they  are  getting  a free  link.

Just my thoughts…
