Many people nowadays are using blog comments for link building. I have seen affiliate managers recommend me to do comment spamming which is quiet shocking. I personally believe that comment spamming can help you for a small amount of time but do not expect to make millions out of it. I keep talking to lot of self proclaimed SEOs about link building and how do they go about it. Almost every one of them talks about thousands of directory submissions and posting hundreds of comments on blogs with PR.
I am not sure how many of you are aware of this but most of the blogs have a 'No Follow' on their blogs comment section. This means your link in the comments section is worth nothing as the search engine bots will not follow it or consider it as a back link. I think search engines like Yahoo and Bing still ignore 'Do Follow' but I am sure they would be planning to deal with this.
So life has become a bit more difficult with all the comment spam bloggers and websites get everyday. Its really difficult to know what comment is a spam and which one is genuine. I have had tough times figuring that out and you will find some spam comments in my blog as well. I thought those or not spam so they still stay on my blog.
While going through an interesting article on a quite reputed blog, I found comments spam on it. Now this for sure is spam as the commentator has linked back to Poker and Phentermine sites. Here is the link and screenshot for it:
