How To Eliminate Spammers On Your WordPress Blog

The Problem

I’ve been relying on Akismet to get rid of spam comments on my blog and it’s been doing a great job, however you still need to go into your spam mail on your wordpress blog to make sure your mail from your regular readers is not getting caught up with the spam. Like me, I’m guessing you will find lot of mail from your readers stuck in the spam box.

The Solution

After speaking to my good friend Mavis Nong, she has shared with me the awesome plugin that she’s been using with great success. Once you plugin Growmap Anti-Spambot Plugin you should be spam free and your regular readers email will go to your inbox not your spam box.

As you can see from the image above, when searching for this plugin, you only have to type in the words GrowMap to find it. Then all you have to do is active it. If you previously were using  Akismet like I was, you will no longer need it, so don’t forget to uninstall it.

Once you have installed the GrowMap, log out of your blog and check your site and you should see a small box to tick under the comments section. If you are still logged in your site will not detect the box, you must be logged out.

This plugin is going to save you lots of time and you’ll no longer have to scan your spam box to make sure your legitimate readers are not going into your spam.

I absolutly love this new plugin and so do many other users. You can see what they are saying about it here on their site.

Enjoy this time saving plugin and if you are already using it don’t forget to leave your comments below and remember to check the box before submitting your comment.  :-)

Feel free to share this post with your readers and after you have installed it drop back and let me know how it’s working for you.

  • Hi Sandy
    I use the GASP plugin and it is fantastic.

    I’ve deactivated my Akismet plugin and my spam has almost completely disappeared.

    I’d recommend GASP to any blogger who is fed up trawling through the spam for real comments.

  • Sandy,
    Thanks so much for the info. Have been having a time with the spammers who think they are getting all these backlinks but the dolts really have no clue that all they are is wasting their time when they could be making money, LOL.

  • You hit the nail on the head with your comment Scott.

    These are the people that give up Marketing (which is what they think they are doing by spamming) because they don’t make any money online.

    When they realise all they have to do is what they are already doing in a more positive way and within their niche, then they will be making money faster than they ever thought possible.

  • Hi Sandy,

    Most internet marketers are using Akismet since they believe it’s the best Anti-spam plugin for WP. However in my opinion, i think G.A.S.P is way better than Akismet. With Akismet, you need to spend a lot of time looking for legit comments that Akismet mistakenly caught as spam. With G.A.S.P, you don’t have to do this and legit comments will never be caught as spam.
