Do You Have Time For Paid Comments?

July 31st, 2007 by Vlad | Filed under Other (Fom Old Blog).

While there are certainly cases when paid comments can be 100% legitimate, I still stand by my somewhat harsh criticism of the website than brought the issue into the spotlights in recent weeks.

Today I was faced with a little bit of a dilemma. Seemingly innocent comments with clear attempt to (ab)use the fact that this blog has DoFollow plugin installed:

The comment was relevant to the post, but the name of the author looked…. well spammy.How can you tell if the comments where not made by some one who was paid to do so? I guess it could be a good lesson for someone who would consider paid comments service as a part of their business model.

Personally I have no time for such comments. However, every time I see such a comment, I can’t stop wondering, is this some one trying to get their feet went in online marketing and is following a bad advise?
