Hunting SPAMblogs: spread the word!

On June 1, 2005, in Web/Technologie, Weblogs, by Hans Mestrum

Pascal Vanhecke did a great job in describing what spamblog are and how they work. Now he has a posting on how to hunt these spamblogs. The idea is very simple. When you find one, please save them in a spamblog del.icio.us tag. In this way they got known by Technorati and all others who can then skip them. So let’s start. Spread the word!

    Technorati is able to track the spamblog by means of the tag and the source of the blog as pascal describes.
