Contact Button Makes It Easy To Contact and Follow

Posted by

Putting out your email address on your blog is tantamount to inviting spammers to email you like crazy. Being a problogger, you naturally want to have people email you in order to communicate with them or even possibly work for them in a project, but listing your email on your blog is a big risk as you might have you email spammed. Others resort to putting a contact form but if you want to make it look snazzier, then I would suggest you try out Wikiworkbook’s Contact Button.

People no longer have to write their email as “john (at) johnsmith.com” to stop the spammers from either automatically or manually harvesting it. On a blog, the Contact Button can fit neatly into either the Sidebar or be automatically inserted at the end of each post. Visitor’s messages go direct to the user’s regular email account.

The Contact Button has a graceful dropdown which opens on mouse rollover to reveal an email icon and their social profiles – should the user choose to provide any. If a visitor clicks the “Email Me” icon, the email form opens on the same webpage – so the visitor stays on the user’s site.

Here’s what it’ll look like:

I’ve tried it out and it also allows you to put in any social network service link you have along with your email address. It also saves a lot of space since it’s a drop down menu compared to adding all your SNS packed on top of the other. So try it out!
