"Scripts & Methods to Avoid Spambots On Your Website Pages"

>>Stop the Spamming Robots from Harvesting Your Email Address!

>>Make it Easy for your Website Visitors, Subscribers, & Customers
to Add Your Email to Their Address Books - and avoid the sp
ambots too!



===---===---===---===---===---===---===---===

Method #1
One of my favorites.
Best and Easiest for Your Visitors, Customers & Subscribers


This method is the "Easiest method" for your subscribers, customers, and visitors.

Use the following Javascript to disguise your email address on your website.

PLEASE NOTE: Before adding this script to your HTML page, copy and paste it into your Text Editor (like Ultra Edit, Note Pad, Word Pad) and then copy it from your Text Editor and paste it into your HTML page. This will keep the script pure.

<script language="javascript">
<!--
var Domain = "your-domain-name.com"
var Mailme = "mail" + "to:" + "your-email-prefix@" + Domain
document.write("<form>");
document.write("<input type=\"submit\" value=\"Your Message Goes Here\" ");
document.write("onclick=\"parent.location=Mailme\"> ");
document.write("</form>");
// -->
</script>


The parts in Bold Text are the parts that you change to your information. Be careful to leave everything else without change.

The beauty of this method is that it has the least drawbacks. Very few people disable their javascript in their computer, and that would be the only drawback -- but who disables javascript since almost every website uses it?

To see how it Works:

Method #2

Mailto Tags
Don't use "mailto:" in your HTML pages or your viewable pages.
Most spambots are searching for "mailto:" tags to harvest email addresses off of websites.
Also, change the font and the font size for the "@" symbol. This will alter the html coding and ensure that your email address will not be harvested. For
Example: yourwebsite
@yourwebsite.com

 


===---===---===---===---===---===---===---===

Method #3

Use a Graphic
Make a graphic of your email address.
Drawback: the reader has to manually type in the address "by sight." He/she won't even be able to copy and paste since it's not clickable and you can not copy and paste a graphic. You can add your email address in the ALT tag, but your visitor still has the dilemma of having to 'look and remember' your address to be able to add to their address book.
Drawback: some readers have graphics disabled, so they can't view the graphic. You can put your email address in the ALT tag, but I find this method to be totally Too Time consuming and difficult for the website visitor/reader.

Method #4

You can use:
&#064;
in your html page for the "@" symbol.
Drawback: it is reported that some sp
amming software are wise to this method.



===---===---===---===---===---===---===---===

Method #5

Text Method:
You can instruct your website visitor how to copy and paste - then change - then remove spaces...

Be Sure to Replace [at] with: @
   (make sure there are no spaces in the address.)

Drawback: Too difficult for the website visitor, subscriber, or customer.

===---===---===---===---===---===---===---===

Also remember to never give your email address to an online directory that will post it online. It can be harvested from there and from any website where you enter your email address to be publicized.

Protect Your Email Address and Your Website!
