Just to clear things up I’m not talking about spam in the comments but the actual blog itself.
Today through boredom I started to read the blogs that are on blogger.com. While some of them are interesting to me, most are not. (Some are just plain boring to anybody but the author.) But what I started to notice after a while was the number of blogs being used to sell things. Blog Spam if you will.
The first I came across was Totally Your Reviews 22, at first I thought it was just someone having a play. Then yeast-infection appeared, followed immediately by Label Printer. A couple more clicks and Lasik-J. I could continue.
Now I had heard about spam in the comments of people blogs, but never the actual blog being used to spam. What ever next!
To be fair I have so far only seen and looked for this on blogger.com, but it wouldn’t surprise me if this was also happening on other blogging services.
