Like many others, I too have found my website traffic spiking due to the mysterious Semalt. 100+ hits a day from foreign countries I know I don’t have that many fans in (or do I, El Salvador?)

3/15 UPDATE
I believe in “better safe than sorry.” So I did not allow a comment on this post today. Why? Because the email address for the sender was at “gmai” [dot] com and not the correct “gmail” [dot] com format. I wasn’t going to take any chances with a spammer or phisher getting through. So if you don’t see a comment of yours coming through after moderation, and you’re a legitimate blogger or person, you might want to consider how your on-line persona looks to your potential audience. I’m not the only blogger who nixes sketchy comments or contact info.
