Email: Hide Your Address

It's a sad and annoying fact; spambots are continually crawling webpages all round the globe, harvesting email addresses, builiding mailing lists and spewing out spam.

Less successful attempts at protecting email addresses are Address Mungeing or deliberate obviscation using (at) instead of @ in the address.

However, a more foolproof solution is to display your contact address as an image and there's a free service that will do this for you in three simple steps...

Go to Safemail

Enter the email you want to hide in an image...



Choose a font and style to match your web page...




You're good to go, just click 'Create Now'...

 




The resulting code can be applied to a variety of platforms and safemail will even host the image for you.
