Sadly, there are a number of “spambots” which roam the web “harvesting” email addresses to send spam to. Often, you have no choice but to include a “mailto” link with an email address in a web page. Fortunately most of these spambots do not seem to have complete HTML parsers, and most do not execute JavaScript.
Easy Email Scrambler uses obfuscation to generate a “mailto:” link which will confuse naïve spambots, but will still work in standard browsers. If you own, or operate even 1 website, you know how inundated you can get with spam.

Top 10 “Must-Have”
Features on Your Mobile
Website By Raam Anand
The latest research from Gartner and LFM claim that by the end of this year, over half of all Internet searching will be done on mobile devices, there’s a scramble in the cyberspace on going mobile. All fortune 500 companies already have a mobile-ready website and other businesses are following suit. Website owners are going in droves to become ‘thumb-friendly’ so that they can reach a much bigger audience.
There are 6.8 billion people on the planet. 5.1 billion of them own a cell phone, but only 4.2 billion own a toothbrush! That’s the reason why website owners are in a frenzy to make their website accessible for mobile and tablet users.
With such a mad rush to go mobile, here are top 10 features and mobile-strategies that every mobile website MUST have in order to make their online content more useful and engaging for their mobile audience.
1. Keep It Fast and Easy to Manage.
Mobile users are a busy lot. Always short on time and want things at the tip of their fingers, literally. So make sure your mobile website is designed to load fast. Not just fast, make it super-fast and easy to read. Prioritize your website content and features and display only the most important ones. Say “no” to large blocks of text and don’t forget to compress every image that you want on your mobile site.
2. Make It Smooth and Easy to Navigate.
Mobile users are used to multiple screens. Latest smartphones allow them to use it that way. Make use of this and port your content to span multiple screens, depending on the functionality. Take care to make your mobile site look similar and consistent on all sub-pages. Focus on easy navigation and 1-click buttons to navigate to any part of your mobile website. Repeat key features on all pages of your mobile site.
3. Use Mobile Site Re-direction Technology.
Use suitable scripts or codes that can detect the visitor’s device and automatically re-direct them to the mobile version of your website. Your visitors can browse to your website from any computer or mobile device using same URL and they will be served with the right content. However, never forget to give your users a choice to switch to the desktop (regular) version of your website.
4. Make It Interactive.
Mobile device users do have a mouse to go over your website. So, make it easy and interactive using 1-click buttons. Virtual keyboard on mobile screen are tiny. So minimize text input on your mobile website. The best way to collect information from a mobile site is to make your forms shorter or better still, start a mobile mailing list (text/SMS list) so that all your visitors have to do is click a button to subscribe their mobile number. Use ‘Click-To-Call’ buttons in key locations throughout your mobile website.
5. Design for Visibility.
Eye-strain is the number one complaint of mobile users. Make it easy for your visitors to read the content using proper, mobile-friendly fonts and colors. Use simple and complementary contrasts. Keep the cool gradients and stunning graphics to your desktop website. The text must fit on the screen and users should be able to ready without pinching or zooming. Use mobile-friendly effects like button colors and shadows.
6. Optimize for Local Visitors.
Customers are always looking for local information on their mobiles, from locating the nearest fuel station to finding restaurants. So, include functionality that help people find your place of business. Add your address and include mobile-friendly ‘maps and directions’. Allowing your mobile users to check out nearby attractions and businesses is also recommended.
7. Make it Versatile.
Your mobile website must work on most device platforms and handset orientations. Find alternative to “Flash” content because Flash is not properly supported on all devices. The latest HTML5 and CSS3 is recommended for interactivity and animation effects. Adapting your mobile website for both vertical and horizontal orientations is very important.
8. Maintain Clear Hierarchy.
By maintaining a clear and consistent navigational hierarchy throughout your mobile website, avoid confusion and user frustration. Add a small search box, if feasible, so users can search what they want, if your website has too much content. Avoid too much scrolling and rollover effects. Add ‘back’ and ‘home’ buttons at regular intervals so that users can navigate freely.
9. Go for a Thumb-Friendly Design.
Everyone uses their fingers to operate mobile handsets… more so, their thumbs. So, design your mobile site in such a way that even people with big-hands (and thumbs) can easily interact. Use large, centered buttons and give enough space in-between to avoid accidental clicks. Pad smaller buttons and check-boxes to make the clickable area a bit more spacious.
10. Track Everything.
Do not forget to use a robust tracking mechanism for your mobile website, just like you do on your desktop website. Use a suitable tracking mechanism to measure visitors, clicks and browsing habits. Keep tweaking your mobile website based on tracking results. One other surefire way to get a direct feedback about your site and what people want from your mobile site is — “ask”. Just ask your mobile visitors to take a short survey (with pre-populated, thumb-friendly choices) and learn from them directly.
