DO NOT approve comments to your posts. I will do that. Recently there have been alot of spam comments. Spam comments containing advertising or potential viruses that can do damage to the blog.
I'm not sure if "virus" is the correct word, but I've participated in forums for bloggers where there has been discussion of spam comments having deleted entire blogs!
I back up the data frequently but to put it all up would be really tedious and time consuming.
