Google help to fight blog spammers

Quote:

If you're a blogger (or a blog reader), you're painfully familiar with people who try to raise their own websites' search engine rankings by submitting linked blog comments like "Visit my discount pharmaceuticals site." This is called comment spam, we don't like it either, and we've been testing a new tag that blocks it. From now on, when Google sees the attribute (rel="nofollow") on hyperlinks, those links won't get any credit when we rank websites in our search results. This isn't a negative vote for the site where the comment was posted; it's just a way to make sure that spammers get no benefit from abusing public areas like blog comments, trackbacks, and referrer lists.

Not sure if anyone posted this, but thought it would be helpful to those that run blogs.

I seen :) You beat me. :winkwink:

The only concern would be someone using these on links you buy or link trades. More work for you, having to watch for this type of thing.

But it could be helpful for some sites other then blogs.

I definitely will be testing it out :)
