Way back when I had word verification on my blog, there was just a word - and you could read it. Now there are letters that sometimes are impossible to read and numbers too small to decipher.
When I decided to boldly go into the land of "Word Verification Free" blogging I was a bit uneasy. What would happen if some horrible person put something really bad in my comments? That's when I realized that first of all I would get an email with the comment right away, and second, Blogger is REALLY good at screening out the spam.
So I did it. And guess what? Not one single offensive comment has appeared on my blog. Blogger catches all comments that are not genuine.
So, all I'm saying is this - if you still have word verification active on your blog, why not be bold and try the freedom of doing without the pesky thing? I bet your readers will comment more. And if you are still too uncertain, comment moderation is another good choice.
Quite often I would love to say something about a blog post I just read, but either I don't have the time to mess with the verification, or I just get too frustrated trying to find one I can actually read! I'm pretty sure I am not alone in this.
Please, won't you join the movement to eliminate word verification????
Just my opinion :)
Blessings,
