<br />
For ex: If I need a facebook page – Within 10-15 seconds it creates an facebook fan page and start sharing the posts (Of course it needs some human interaction). Do you think It is useful to buy?]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[On many sites/forums/blogs etc, there will be an occurrence of those pesky bots, usually spam bots. When it comes to spam bots, how do you stop them from even showing up? Of course there's captcha, and security questions for sign ups, but even those don't always stop them. <br />
<br />
What do you do? Do you just ip ban the accounts?]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[More than half the traffic on TWO is from bots and as long as it is from search engines it is ok :-) but about half that traffic is from spambots who try to register an account and post garbage on the forum.<br />
<br />
Those people who buy access to an automated forum/blog signup to get backlinks are not that different from you and I. They are just trying to make a living. Unfortunately it seems that they are not aware that this short term strategy has a lot of consequences for the website owner and ultimately they ruin their own business by going for short term results.<br />
<br />
I once had a small forum that ran pretty well but suddenly one night I had 75.000 users registered and 75.000 posts and threads posted! All about getting a bigger "you know what" and medication to do it. It took a very long time to clean it up and I might have deleted some real users in the process...<br />
<br />
The thing is that Google does not value backlinks as they once did and Google is not that stupid that they can't see what backlinks on a seo forum that goes to "Get a longer ...." sites are. Google also know it is a problem so of course these specific links does not do anything good. <br />
<br />
But of course it might create some traffic and some customers if a person with low self esteem reads such a forum post.<br />
<br />
I personally like to get backlinks but I WILL make them my self so I can control where they are, the quality and the anchor text. Why should I post 5.000 posts in irrellevant blogs/forums to get backlinks and in the process create a lot of grief for other Admins who has to clean up every time someone is doing that?<br />
<br />
I simply hate idiots who steal my time doing automated posts which ruins my blogs or forums!<br />
<br />
<br />
When I see this in my Who's online list I know that it is a spam bot:<br />
