My first RE spam comment caught by Akismet
Posted in Real Estate Marketing 2.0 By G Dewald | Union Street Media, Monday, May 5, 2008.Just a heads up, I'm sure the more active bloggers have seen one of these already. I was cleaning out my spam comment-catcher and found one headlined "Sell My House Pasadena California."
As an industry, this sort of thing is damaging to the reputation and, sadly, mostly out of the control of individuals. Probably worth monitoring the kinds of messaging used in the spam and making sure your own messages are completely different in tone/scope (unless the spam is working of course... heh).
Happy Monday everyone,
G

I get a couple of hundred spam comments a day. Mostly porn sites, pharmacy sites and the like. But every day I get spam comments and spam pingbacks from real estate sites, lenders, etc.
Fortunately Askimet does a good job.
