Email Address Security by WebEmailProtector

HSP

What is it?

Email address harvesters operate by using software „scrapers“ or „click through“ staff to steal email addresses directly from web-site pages.
Using our service prevents this as your email addresses no longer need to be listed directly on your web-site. Instead
they are hidden away from your site. We then only release the address after
we are sure it is not being accessed improperly. Because of this it becomes invisible to harvesters and machines and yet is completely
visible to bona fide users.

How does a WebEmailProtector secured email address appear?

The secured email address appears on a site like this: “ <a href=’JavaScript:emo();‘ >Any Text </a >“
(you can change what it says and how it looks)
whereas a non protected email address usually appears like this:“ <a href=’mailto:nobody@webemailprotector.com‘ >nobody@webemailprotector.com </a >“.
Both operate when you „click“, but only the former is safe.

Why is it better than a Contact Form?

Contact Forms are effective in dealing with both human and machine based harvesting, unless you ever want to use email auto responders of course
as this gives your identity away.
However the real problem is that all the form filling can annoy and therefore dissuade real users from getting in touch – effectively putting a
barrier between you and your users in your most important communications channel – email

Why is it better than Captcha codes?

Captcha codes are effective in dealing with machines but not with users who simply click to reveal your address.
And the other main issue is that they are very very annoying to real users and can heavily dissuade communications with you – so are effectively
putting a barrier between you and your wanted users.

Why is it better than ‚free‘ address encoder?

Although at first they may appear effective as your ‚mailto:‘ text is no longer obvious to the eye within your HTML code. Encoders and encrypters,
‚free‘ or otherwise, have to be built so that they can be interpreted by any web-browser using standard HTML. And this is the nature of there
drawback.
They are more or less complex but involve a Java/JavaScript sequence munger or character set coder. But to cut a long story short if your browser
understands them so can any harvesting software.
So it’s actually quite simple for encoded email addresses to be interpreted and harvested using standard software libraries and methods.

How is the email protected?

We provide protection as the email address is never listed or disclosed on your website. Instead WebEmailProtector detects who and what is trying to access
the email link on your site at the time of „clicking“, and then deploys algorithms to validate whether this request is being made by a credible, bona-fide visitor.
The algoriths check multiple points about the request using our robust, proven Artifical Intelligence (AI) derived method.
After running the validation process, the email address is only returned if certain criteria are met and others not broken.

How can you check if you are protected?

listed view your web site in text mode (e.g. pressing the F12 key in your Internet Explorer/Google Chrome/Firefox web browser) and search for
your email address or the mailto: reference. It should no longer be there. And finally check out your site using our email finder tool at https://www.webemailprotector.com/website-email-security-check.html.
