trackback spam: how to stop
-
I am bombarded daily by irrelevant trackback links. Most do get sent to my spam file, but it is horrifying to check my blog and see I have so much spam.
I would turn off trackbacks if I could figure out how to do this. Is there a way to turn off the trackback feature and I just haven’t found it?
Many of the spam trackbacks I get are to porno sites and other icky stuff. I write about plants, and really don’t understand why they think spamming my site will do them any good.
Thanks for any help you can provide.
