Hide Email Addresses from Spam Harvesters

September 20, 2007 by Cotton Rohrscheib 1 Comment

I have a client that I do some IT Consulting for that has a long list of staff emails posted on their website. It’s no secret that spam spiders crawl sites and look for email addresses they can add to their database. I knew of a few ways to obfuscate emails so that harvesters couldn’t get them correctly but before I could actually script something up myself I ran across this site: Link to Mysterious Ways – Hide Email Addresses from Spam Harvesters. I added it to my tools list on delicious also: http://del.icio.us/powersitedesign/tools (which also contains some other cool tools). This is a cool generator that allows you to paste in an address and generate drop in code. I chose to use javascript but you can pick from a few different options.
