Business Contact Page Email
For small businesses, obfuscating customer-facing emails helps cut spam volume.
HTML entities (recommended)
Each character becomes a numeric HTML entity. Browsers render it as the original email, but most simple scrapers reading the raw HTML see gibberish.
<a href="mailto:hello@example.com">hello@example.com</a>
How it renders in a browser:
💡 Modern spam bots are sophisticated. Obfuscation slows them down but isn’t bulletproof. For maximum protection, combine with: server-side rate limiting on contact forms, honeypot fields, and reCAPTCHA-equivalent. For low-stakes use (a contact page on a small site), HTML entity obfuscation cuts scraper hits by ~60-80%.
Business Contact tips
For small business contact pages, replace plain mailto: links with obfuscated versions. Saves your support inbox.
For larger businesses, prefer a contact form over a published email — even harder to scrape, plus form rate limiting.
A combination works best: obfuscated email for general inquiries + contact form for structured requests.
