FWIW, anyone who hangs around blogs knows a spam comment when they see one. I'd imagine that it's even harder to make a fake blog post believable, since it's easier to wing something like: "yeah I agree [link to fishy site]" than it is to make a well-written post (especially if it needs to be generic enough to pass as legitimate in 12 million different blogs...)
