stick the link in your sig on all forums/major websites, itll boost you up in google real quick, improving your spam-chance
Won't help you at all unless you're shooting for some obscure phrase with only three results :-) Spammers use spambots to make posts because Google likes unique links inside of relevent content. They aren't trying to post on active forums, they are hoping to get on old dead ones that nobody moderates anymore.

Yeah, funny thing about that. it was telling me that "h t t p" in side of a quote tag was type of bad word...

Yeah, just did it again when I tried to post this:
The word *h t t p* is on our list of spam related words. Please refrain from posting this word.

Heh, maybe you should wait a few more posts before sharing your link.

Just a quick update; I cleaned up our memberlist. Deleted about 100~150 accounts which were most likely spambots trying to infiltrate :)
