Spamvertised websites really hack me off

Do you have a wordpress blog (note that this particular blog isn't) and get a tonne of spam, mostly from people purporting to be SEO's?

Take this one which I receive a lot of on other blogs:-

Hello Web Admin, I noticed that your On-Page SEO is is missing a few factors, for one you do not use all three H tags in your post, also I notice that you are not using bold or italics properly in your SEO optimization. On-Page SEO means more now than ever since the new Google update: Panda. No longer are backlinks and simply pinging or sending out a RSS feed the key to getting Google PageRank or Alexa Rankings, You now NEED On-Page SEO. So what is good On-Page SEO?First your keyword must appear in the title.Then it must appear in the URL.You have to optimize your keyword and make sure that it has a nice keyword density of 3-5% in your article with relevant LSI (Latent Semantic Indexing). Then you should spread all H1,H2,H3 tags in your article.Your Keyword should appear in your first paragraph and in the last sentence of the page. You should have relevant usage of Bold and italics of your keyword.There should be one internal link to a page on your blog and you should have one image with an alt tag that has your keyword....wait there's even more Now what if i told you there was a simple Wordpress plugin that does all the On-Page SEO, and automatically for you? That's right AUTOMATICALLY, just watch this 4minute video for more information at. <a href="http://www.wordpress-subscribers.info" rel="nofollow">WordPress Seo Plugin</a>

Now the big issue I have with this isn't the content which is quite good and is quite well written, I don't have a big issue even that the person posting this is the most lazy spammer ever, using free software to blast this spam to tens of thousands of blogs per day.

No, the big issue I have with this is that it works!   Lazy spammers only get results because of an even greater number of lazy website owners exist.

Do a quick search in google for that text above and you will find a startling amount of websites that are spamvertising this particular website promoting a wordpress seo plugin is over 41,000.

That is 41,000 people who are all helping to make the blogosphere a poorer experience for both the reader and for other bloggers.

Stop being lazy, stop the spammers from posting on your website by all means possible.  There is money to be made online, so make sure it is you that makes it, and not some half arsed lazy spammer.
