Want to ditch the SpamBots?

It's been a little while since I last made a post, my apologies. But here's a quick suggestion.

As a webmaster you want your visitors to be able to contact you easily, so you put an email link on your site.

But you soon realise that's just asking for trouble from the spambots, right?

Next you try disguising your email address in a text format something like:

john (AT) yoursite (DOT) com

But that means a little extra effort for your visitors.

Well the safest and most convenient method is probably using contact forms. There are a number of contact form generators available, some are even free. But if you're like me, you've tried a few and had problems getting them to work for one reason or another.

I've just bought a simple Contact Form Creator that, guess what, actually worked first time for me. It's very straightforward and can have you finishing a basic contact form in minutes, like this example here.

I'm going to be using it on all my websites over the next week or so.

It's not free, but it works and it's an absolute bargain, PLUS you get full resell rights too. Go get a copy here:
