Frequently Asked Questions
What is email obfuscation?
Email obfuscation is the practice of disguising email addresses on websites to prevent spam bots from harvesting them. The email remains readable and functional for humans but is harder for automated bots to detect and collect.
Which obfuscation method is best?
HTML entity encoding is simple and effective for basic protection. JavaScript method provides good protection but requires JavaScript to be enabled. CSS method is creative but may not work in all contexts. For best results, consider combining methods or using a contact form instead.
Will obfuscation affect user experience?
No! When properly implemented, obfuscated emails look and function exactly like normal email links. Users can click them to open their email client, and the email address is displayed normally in the browser.
Does this completely prevent spam?
While obfuscation significantly reduces spam by preventing simple bot harvesting, it's not 100% foolproof. Advanced bots may still be able to extract emails. For maximum protection, consider using a contact form instead of displaying emails directly.
Can I use this for multiple emails?
Yes! You can obfuscate as many email addresses as you need. Simply run the tool for each email address and implement the generated code on your website.
