Spam comments on my WordPress blog?

Um, I'm a bit new to wordpress, I've only been there a couple of months. But before I have a comment from someone named "Debra Ewert" said "one care about your weblog. Lot read more. Keep up the great work on it. Thank you." I thought it was a perfectly normal just congratulated me on my site. But I care much about it? That seemed a little strange. But anyway, I went on with life. So start getting these messages from other two fall into spam filter WP, and two names of two different people who sound like normal everyday people, with sites Such sound the same. I'm beginning to suspect that it is spam, and do not want to feed them. But I just want to be sure. Is this spam?

This spam. Search engine optimizers (SEO) use automated software that can defeat CAPTCA (the visual code that you need to enter many sites before register), and manual labor to plant wherever possible links (comments, message boards, including here in Yahoo Answers) to increase its ranking searches. Google rank sites by popularity (among other things) and the popularity is determined by the number of websites linking to you. Not to approve the comments that links! delete them as spam. Your own ranking suffer in the long term, because many times these links are to questionable sites and Google will realize that. In addition, spammers often will test your comments system by sending false links. do not approve it.
