As I mentioned in a previous post, I've been suffering quite badly from trackback spam. I dread to think what it's done to my Google ranking (and related search terms), and what impact it's had on my bandwidth consumption.
That aside, as Tim suggested, I have re-enabled Akismet. We'll see whether this sorts out the problem, although I'm quite hopeful.

As you may have noticed, I've not blogged in a while. The good news is, I'm back! :-)
Unfortunately, over roughly the same period, I've not really been keeping on top of clearing out my trackback spam, to the point where I deleted in the region of 1000 spam trackbacks this evening. Short of disabling the trackback function (which I don't really want to do), I'm after a bit of advice on combating trackback spam.
Oddly, I don't have any problems with comment spam at all.
Comments welcome, as always! :-)
