Is there a way to block spam Likes?
-
I’ve been noticing over the past two weeks that I now have about 8 spam followers that auto-Like my posts. Is there some means to block those Likes?
If I had a big blog with 50+ Likes a post, I’m sure these spammers would just get drowned out. But for a small blog, it’s kind of embarrassing to start with 8 Likes when you’ll normally get just a few legitimate Likes!
Not the biggest problem in the world, but if there’s a quick fix, I’m interested to know it. Thanks.

Sorry I can’t help you with this, I was searching for spam related forum posts because I’m getting a ton of spam comments. I’m sure someone hired people from a freelance platform to annoy people.
My wordpress is the free version, just starting to revise old posts and WP is not filtering spam comments well.
I hope you get your situation fixed! I’ll carry on looking in the forum for answers for my issue!
