Help: What's the best plugin to get rid of spam comments?

Need to help to find a good spam filter plugin. I currently get a super high amount of non-sense and bad english totally non related spam comments..

What did you guys install to get rid of it? Thx!

 

Not only akismet but I have been installing this on all my client sites lately for a number of reasons. In this case since a lot of spam is bot related this will block it before anything on wordpress is even triggered.
https://wordpress.org/plugins/ninjafirewall/ it seems to work better than stuff like wordfence and it literally has no footprint at all. Its crazy fast.

 

Its very cool. If the site has been up for a while watching the firewall log is the stuff of nightmares lol.. Works amazing though. Give it a whirl. Its a 2 second procedure to get running and has a live traffic log as well that proves useful for a range of things.

Thanks, guys. Will take a look at both.

 

You might want to try ReCaptcha.
I use https://wordpress.org/plugins/bwp-recaptcha/ personally and am quite satisfied with it.

 

Yep, ReCaptcha is cool! As it eleminates autoposts and makes sure it is human writing!

 

Try this https://wordpress.org/plugins/disable-comments/

 

akismet is the best known

 

This one is pretty good: https://wordpress.org/plugins/disable-comments/

 

I am using Askimet for all of my blogs and it perfectly keep spam away from my blog. I highly recommend it.

 

Akismet - BEST OF THE BEST Active Installs: 1+ Million
Event if you will use ReCaptcha still you will get spam comment - spammer know how to pass it
