BroadSky Implements Anti-"Comment Spam" Feature
Comment spam consists of spammers posting messages to a forum or other public area of your website so that search engines, like Google, will see references to their spam website on your website, and consequently rank their website higher when people do searches.
In order to fight this pollution of innocent websites, Google and other major search engines have recently made a change
to the way they analyze references to websites that they come across. Briefly, if you now include a ref=nofollow attribute in link anchor tags, the search engines will ignore it for indexing purposes.
Patches are now available for most software systems that are vulnerable to comment spam to implement the new attribute. BroadSky is applying these patches to all websites we host.
