    I have the domain thepirateblog.com, I use to do free blog hosting with it but I do not want to do that anymore because of all the spam bots. Any have a good suggestion of what I could do with it?

    Ya, that's possible. I'll have to think about it though. May go back with blog hosting.

    whenever you install wordpress akismet is installed also within plugins
    get an api key and activate
    also you can use the following plugins

    Spammer blocker
    This plugin blocks all visitors who posted a comment that was later marked as a spam.

    Visitor Maps and Who's Online - good to see what bots are visiting for blocking just makes it easier
    Displays Visitor Maps with location pins, city, and country. Includes a Who's Online Sidebar to show how many users are online. Includes a Who's Online admin dashboard to view visitor details. The visitor details include: what page the visitor is on, IP address, host lookup, online time, city, state, country, geolocation maps and more. No API key needed.

    TimesToCome (TTC) Security Plugin Security for Wordpress
    makes it easy to compile a block list of bad bots/scrapers etc

    good to start off with :)
