Using reCAPTCHA in WordPress blog is very easy and i would recommend it to everyone, specially on contact forms, registration forms or comment system. It really does help a lot to reduce spam bots and spammers from bombing your blog with useless data and wasting your time.

Thanks for this information about Goolge Recaptcha. I just have a question Procoder. I had problems with my website when I was using a Recaptcha. Often people weren't able to place comments or send in forms.

I have to dig deep into my memory now to remember the error message that was given, I believe it said something about Java settings?

When I removed the Recaptcha that problem was resolved. Spam does get picked up now and is sent to the comment spam section but I don't know how safe it is not having Recaptcha.

I have been to sites that are using Recaptcha that I know it is for the purpose of blocking the bots from entering their forum. The simplest Recaptcha that I had encountered was the button that you will click to say you are not a bot. There are others that are more complex like the picture puzzle of 9 portions where you have to click the blocks that has a car or a street sign.
