Things have settled down, though, and bunnyhero asked what plugins I was using, so now seems like a good […]

bunnyhero: I have a draft started from a while ago but I was waiting until I knew what I was going to keep using! I’ll finish it up soon. Also: I cache gravatars, including negative caching, so that’s why your gravatar didn’t appear at first. It’s showing up fine now, though.

I went months with almost no spam, and suddenly I’m getting dozens a day. According the the SpamKarma2 banner on the bottom of my blog, over 17,500 spams so far.

BTW: Rich, I’ve noticed that the Submit button doesn’t work for me. I have to tab over to it and hit return, because clicking on it doesn’t work. I’m using Firefox 1.5 on Linux.

Mostly I think I accomplished that by putting my URL in my email signature and using a lot of mailing lists for a while, which made for inlinks to my site from a lot of high-profile mail archives.

For some reason the photo galleries on my old site (which I need to move to Flickr soon) got a lot of hits. It probably doesn’t help that I had an abandoned and spammable WP 1.5 install here for a long time. (It’s still abandoned, but it’s not spammable. I should just import the posts to here, put them in their own category, and redirect.)

Compare inlinks to lafferty.ca, inlinks to cafechatnoir.net.

If only I could turn it into something more useful than “lots of spam”!

I had only Akismet, and grabbed Bad Behavior and SpamKarma2 at the same time, and figured I’d be better off turning on one for a while, and then the other, to see if I really need all of them.

Things are a bit slow here to begin with, what with all the visible plugins I use, so I don’t want to slow things down too much more with invisible ones!
