Blog Spam is the unsolicited approach by the vendors of products to owners of blogs in the hope that they will promote the products. Often a free copy of the software or some other incentive is offered.

Another popular tactic is for a spammer to make a comment on a blog posting. The comment often contains a link to the website or business that they are trying to promote. Depending on the sophistication of the spammer the comment may have a click-able link (A tag or Hyperlink) embedded in the comment. If I see comments like this and I determine that the comment was made just for that purpose I will either delete the comment or I will re-post it with the hyperlink removed.

I started a page previously, but this will be the main page.
