How to prevent spam comments

Since the installation of this Wordpress website, I haven't even gotten one spam comment. The solution I came up with for this problem was quite easy.

Just install this plugin:

This plugin will let you add custom (meant to be as anti-spam) questions for every post you make. You can add a default question that all posts will get, or add a custom one per post. This will reduce your spam comments dramatically, because most spammers are using bots to spam Wordpress blogs, using this plugin will prevent that from happening.

Another good thing about this plugin is, that it will reduce the CPU usage your blog might be 'causing on any shared hosting account.
