    SPAM!!!

    Notice that the comment doesn’t have anything to do with your post, or your blog, never mentions anything about the post or the blog, and tries to give false praise in order for you to approve it? Now look at the link that’s created on the commenters name. The ones that I saw all pointed to some SPAM’y sounding domains. so yes, your site is being bombarded by automated bots that are SPAM’ing their comments on your site to get backlinks ot their own sites to boost their own SEO. This is common and happens on pretty much every blog out there.

    The good news is that you can install an anti-spam plugin (Akismet is the most publicised here) and it will cut down almost all of those fake automated comments.

    The comments shouldn’t be publicly viewable until they are approved. You can check the settings in you radmin area to try and tighten this up a bit if your concerned.

    Yeah, that is definitely spam.

    Also if there is a website submitted and if the name is similar to the website – so it is a spam too.

    Try to use Anti-spam plugin. It blocks spam automatically and without captcha.

    It is very easy to use: just install and it works invisibly for admin and for users.
