What are Splogs?

0

These are Spam Blogs. This is another problem for the free blog sites especially if they have an automated setup. Spammers create literally thousands of “spam blogs” on free networks containing hundreds of links to fool search engines and to artificially create advertising and affiliate revenue. This can put the free blog networks and servers (as well as their support staff) under some stress. Worse than that, if someone accidentally or maliciously flags your legitimate blog as a “splog” if might suddenly be deleted. It’s also possible that search engines might rank your blog lower for being in a “bad neighbourhood.” This can happen to networks offering mass free hosting too. .
