Email on your web site
A lot of you get spam – I do too and man do I hate it!
It is hard to avoid spam altogether but one thing that you can do is to hide your email address. How do you do this? Well – I will tell you.
When you write your email address it looks like this:
brooke@cataluna.com
If you go into the code you can ‘hide’ your email address.
alt98;alt114;alt111;alt111;alt107;alt101;alt64; etc.
You see all of those numbers? They same the same thing as the simple code. (alt99 = b, alt114 = r etc etc) However, the numbers disguise your email address to the search engines and spammers.
If you go to this site: http://www.tedmontgomery.com/tutorial/ALTchrc.html
you will find lots ‘o ALT characters and how to write them. ALT is typed &#.
Good luck and happy spam avoiding!
