Antispam Bee

I have been using this for several years now and not had a single issue with spam.

lightweight and awesome.

Thank you.

The best antispam plugin


Using it since years and had no spam in my blog ever. Simple, clean, works.


Best Antispam Plugin


I've tested this plugin and seems to working very well. Most spam comments are gone, some of them (just a little) are able to avoid spam filters.



There is something need to be fixed and I'm already posted in support forum. I hope that it will be fixed soon.


Very good spam filter plugin.


Works quite well without calling out to a remote service, and doesn't require your visitors to be using JavaScript. (Seriously, I posted a test comment using Dillo and it showed up in the moderation queue!) No need to deal with API keys or licensing.



There are some optional tactics that will call a remote service for things like language identification, but so far it's doing the job fine without them!



The only problem I've had with it is that it only acts on comments, not on other features like contact forms.


Privacy-friendly spam filter


Simple to set up and use. Catches all the spam and deletes it before I get a chance to see it. Might miss one or two pieces a week, but that's still better than JetPack and it preserves my users' privacy.


Works better than JetPack


This is an amazing free plugin!What a mental dysfunction to generate spam, what a waste of resources, time, attention.Antispam Bee does a great job, for free.Thank you!

<h3>Premier Spam Prevention Plugin for WordPress</h3>
<h4>The QUADRUPLE Crown of Spam protection runs every comment submission through a gauntlet of tests, all invisible and harmless to human visitors, all highly efficient at detecting automated spam:</h4>
<ol>
<li>The <strong>clocker</strong> destroys anyone submitting forms too quickly to be human.</li>
<li>The <strong>bouncer</strong> eliminates anyone caught trying to sneak in with form fields only spammers would use. </li>
<li>The <strong>planter</strong> silently distributes secret codes to genuine human commenters which are then verified upon submission. </li>
<li>The <strong>surgeon</strong> optionally severs your websites ability to receive trackback spam.</li>
</ol>
<h4>Special Bonus!</h4>
<p>Not only does SpamLord protect your website, it also enables you to get the last word in. Now you can reply to would-be spammers with options such as:</p>
<ul>
<li>a curated selection of tastefully sarcastic comments (now in 13 languages covering the regions that produce the most spam)</li>
<li>a false positive so they think it worked (and won’t try harder next time)</li>
<li>anything you want using the custom response option</li>
</ul>


SpamLord
