BANGALORE, INDIA: User contribution has become an important part of web pages with almost all websites offering you an option to post comments. At times, it's the user comments on a web page that provide more valuable information than the web page itself.
But with user interactions increasing day by day, web administrators or bloggers have to spend a lot of time moderating user comments, which often contain a lot of spam. Plus with the fast moving web, a comment cannot wait for moderation for a long time.
MolloM can help you with moderation as well as blocking spam on your website. It is basically a web service which analyzes comments, contact form messages, blogs etc posted on a website and identifies spam and blocks the same depending upon its quality.
When a user posts content on a website protected by MolloM, it is sent to mollom.com servers which analyze and reply whether that the content is ham or spam. In case MolloM is unable to determine the content quality, it will immediately present user with a CAPTCHA challenge (both image and audio supported) and if the user clears it, the content will be allowed. This not only protects the website from spam but also saves the moderator's time
