I agree, www.statcounter.com is really good. You can get a free or paid
account depending on your needs. It's very easy to set up.

Just finishing up a site, and I was wondering - are most people still
putting email addresses up on a site, and if so, are they encrypted?  I
thought I heard from somewhere that was a primary way that spammers were
getting addresses.

If anyone has any opinions on this, I'm all ears!


Unless a client insists, I do not use site email 
addys.  It's my understanding the bots have 
figured out how to decode all those little coding 
things people have been using to try to 
circumvent them. As for forms don't even bother 
w/a cgi form - they just pummel those and feast 
like no tomorrow.  Use a strong php email form is my suggestion.

Thanks Deb.  I think we need to put the email addresses on the site, but
perhaps not in mailto:; tags.  Is that what the bots look at when scanning?


I can't say for sure what they specifically look 
for but if you feel strongly about putting the 
email on the sites, then I don't understand why 
the original question? I thought you asked for 
opinions and info about putting them on or not? 
Maybe I misunderstood. It's been a very long UN 
productive day for me so my brain's fried. I 
probably just didn't get what you asked and jumped in w/a dumb response. Sorry!

OK, I see how you can do it, but that's a very
frustrating thing when I go to a site is not being able to find a way to
email them.


That's what contact forms are for.  g My 
experience is that the Mom'n'Pop - homemade sites 
who don't use a real designer use email 
addys.  Professional sites use forms.  But that's 
just my experience.  I hope the day gets better too - but it ain't!
