Report Blogspot Spam Sites

There are many spam blogs, which are also known as SBLOG.

Spam blogs are blogs that usually have many outbound links to the products or services the spammers are trying to promote. The contents are either duplicated from other blogs, totally irrelevant, purely about the products or services, or mainly hyperlinks.

Since there are many free blogging platforms available in the internet such as Blogspot, WordPress and Livejournal, spammers are able to create spam blogs easily. Minimal effort is required to register a free email address, create the blogs and edit the settings. One email address is allowed to create multiple blogs anyway.

Why do we even need to care about spam blogs?

The most obvious reason is that spammers will start to mass advertise for their spam blogs, which will eventually hit us. The most common spamming methods are through email or commenting at your blog. With the emerging of social networking websites such as Tagged, Facebook and Twitter, you can easily be added by fake users with hot profile photos, mainly just to spam the url of the spam blogs to you.

You probably will not want to land into a spam blog when you are digging for some useful information through search engines right?

What can we do to the spam blogs?

We can at least help to report them so that the host can remove them.

For spammers using Blogger (BlogSpot), you can report the website here.
