I don’t like Akismet, it sends each comment to Akismet server for analysis. There are much simpler ways to recognize spam, and faster. I am now using my GD Security Toolbox Pro plugin packed with many security features including antispam addon. In the next couple of weeks, I will post more about different spam fighting techniques with analysis of efficiency for each one.

I run a lot of WordPress sites, and it seems like I only really get spam comments when i haven’t updated Akismet lately. Sometimes I miss an update and a weird, spammy comment will come through. If you’re not running Akismet, what do you use?
