spam filters, google ads and site statistics, oh my! September 22, 2005
I’ve made a few changes to the site recently and it seems like a good time to give some updates…
- I added a new spam filter that has completely eliminated the amount of comment and trackback spam that I was getting. It worries me somewhat that I’ve not had one comment (besides my own test comments) since I added this filter. If you are trying to leave a comment and it does not work, please let me know via email!
- I took down the google ads off the sidepanel and moved them to the bottom of individual posts. They seem more fitting there and hopefully you’ll find them more useful.
- I added a site stat program, MapStats, that displays where site visitors are coming from via google maps. It is a really slick program and if you’re curious how many visitors that this site is getting (and where they are coming from), you can click on this tag
to find out.
I think I’m done with tweaking the site for a while. Now it is time for me to get back to providing updates on the Seattle real estate market!

Well, let’s see if your spam filter really gets in the way of my ability to comment.
I couldn’t let “I don’t have any comments” stand.
Glad to see that worked!
The new spam filter is doing an awesome job filtering out unwanted comments/trackbacks!
