What does it mean when someone reads my blog and then requests to be “Approved.”
Why do they want to be approved and what happens if I approve them since they are total strangers.
thank you

Don’t do it! Do not set up official access to your blog for anyone you do not know or trust. I’ll wager it’s a spammer because they are the only ones who employ this static.

http://aboutthelaw.wordpress.com/wp-admin/edit-comments.php?comment_status=spamThe vast and overwhelming majority of all so-called information on the internet is spam. Over 80% of all so-called comments submitted to .wordpress.com blogs every day are spam. Spam comes in waves. There are human beings who get paid to post spam. There are robotic programs that post spam.
The worst of all spam containing malware and viruses is not sent to us. It’s removed as it could bring down many blogs if opened.
On the spam that Akismet catches it takes only seconds to click “empty spam” and you don’t even have to click “empty spam” if you don’t want to. Akismet will maintain comments it has caught for 15 days from the time they were received, and then it will delete the comment automatically.
If you get spam that slips by Akismet then mark it as spam (do not delete it) and over time Akismet will learn it’s spam.
There is no such thing as eliminating all spam but Akismet works very well. For more information please take the time to read “5 things every blogger should know about spam” on this page Akismet: How it works http://akismet.com/how/
