Spam Blogs

I’ve noticed that I’ve been seeing a lot of blogs setup which appear entirely to be about putting keywords out on the Internet and getting the weblog indexed by Google and Yahoo and whatever.

They’re usually a lot of text which doesn’t mean anything, without paragraphing (which suggests that its copy and pasted from somewhere).

My guess is that this sort of thing happens all the time with Wordpress MU installations.

I don’t care. They get deleted on sight.

Auditblogs.com has a purpose.

    I want to create some blogs on your site with relevant text and at random intervals.
    What is your criteria for deletion?

    I have a purpose too. Just dont want my blogs to be deleted. :-)

    Fair question. The answers are:

    1. The blogs must be analytical, dealing with issues in science and economics.
    2. They must not be designed purely for the purpose of gaming Google Adsense or similar with keywords.
    3. The authors should be available to answer questions and comments.

    Clear?

    This wouldn’t have anything to do with the fact that the sign up thingy refuses to give me a blog, would it? It just keeps saying it won’t except that email address, no matter which I try! I’ve gone through my yahoo, gmail, and hotmail accounts already. What emails does it accept?

    A: Anything except yahoo, gmail and hotmail
