    I receive too many spams comments on my site with their links of course. Is there any way I could minimize or totally stop these comments?

    After 3 days of your post being active, close off comments for it.

    there are two ways to do.

    * adding nofollow to every external link
    * to approve every comment

    If your using wordpress then just use the askimet plugin. The only positive to having a link in the comments is for actual traffic from the site.
