I think the way the spammers work is through the random blog script that Blogger has made available. If your blog didn’t come up as a random blog, the spammers probably wouldn’t bother you.

The downside is the potentially lost readership of “random” blog surfers.

I had already told it to not notify weblogs.com when a new post is made and that helped for about a month. I will try this and see if it makes a difference. I rarely get comments from random surfers.
