Attention
Webmasters with
email links on their sites:
How To
Stop Spam
Coming
From Your Web Site
The email links on your own web
site may be a major source of the spam you are getting.
Every day thousands of software
"robots" built by spammers are crawling the web, looking for email addresses. When a robot finds
an email address, perhaps on your web site, it adds the
email to a database. This database is used by the spammers, and
is sold to other spammers.
How bad is the problem? An
FTC study in 2005 showed that an unprotected email
address on a web site generated over 2,200 spams per week
after just three weeks of exposure. And that was 2005!
Anyone think the problem is decreasing three years later?
If you want an email link on your
site, use this simple tool to encrypt your email address
before you install it on your web site.
It encrypts the email link so it
works in a browser, but robots can't read it.
Unlike most encrypters out there,
this does not rely on the user to have JavaScript enabled.
It works with any browser because it encrypts in ISO hexadecimal
notation.
