    Hi there,

    I had a look at the comments on your site that’s cached on our end via Jetpack, and those are definitely spam. You can tell by the fact that they all have the same URL listed as the website (and the fact that no one signs comments on the web with their full name :D )

    It appears you have the Akismet anti-spam plugin installed on your site, but you have it disabled, so it can’t protect you against spam like this, and you don’t appear to be using any other anti-spam plugin.

    Either activate Akismet, or if you prefer install a different anti-spam plugin, and then mark those comments as spam, and you should stop seeing more like them.
