- kalleboo 13y agoAnd how many "active" sites are just spam? When the archiveteam tried to backup posterous, it felt like the majority of all pages were spam.
- arbuge 13y agoThere is a ton of spam on Weebly. We have a crowdsourced online shopping directory and 90% of the spam comments we get seem to involve Weebly sites. It's gotten to the point where we'll probably just write a simple spam filter that screens for "weebly" in our submissions.
- drusenko 13y agoHey, we'd love to work with you on this. We have a full-time dedicated team that works hard on this and we have a zero-tolerance policy. We work very hard to keep and maintain a high-quality network, and while the percentage spam is low across the network, even a low percentage can still be high volume for some. Please email me (david+c@weebly.com) and I'll put you in touch with them, we are committed to taking a hard stance on spam.
- arbuge 13y agoJust emailed you an example.
- programnature 13y agoHere is a more interesting question: What proportion of all websites are created by engineers, versus by normal folk? Its pretty clear that in the long run, the vast majority will be by regular folk using tools like Weebly. Theres just Billions more of them. Maybe the tipping point has already come and gone.
