Better spam management for WordPress

One of the things I did before I decided to start blogging again on TipMonkies was to beef up the security around the site. While a blog is still young, you may not have many problems, but as its popularity increases, so does the chance of receiving mail and comment spam. WordPress comes with the fantastic Akismet plugin which does an amazing job at catching comment spam, but it can sometimes mislabel legitimate comments. Enter Simple Spam Filter, which allows a blog administrator to easily sort through comment spam based on common keywords found in such comments. Definitely a worthwhile addition to any running a WordPress-powered site.
