  Recently, I have been noticing many comments that are actually links to porn sites and or commercial online pharmacy. My blog is not membership/user registration based. I delete such comments. If I report them as spam will it help reduce the recent inflyx?

  Definitely report them as spam. That helps Akismet learn what is spam and what is ham (their term for valid comments).

  Always report those as spam. Not only will it start catching them for you, but it will help catch it for others, too.
