Irrelevant or unsolicited messages

Crucially relevance is defined, not by the person sending the message or leaving the comment but, by the person the message is viewable to.

  • If your online comment is not highly relevant to the topic you are commenting on then it is spam.
  • If your "highly relevant" comment contains unrelated hyperlinks, then it is also spam. 
a spam comment
Leave comments which are relevant and not manipulative. 


If your comment has a link to your website it pretty much guaranteed to be viewed as spam.
