Who needs Captcha protection service?

As a matter of fact – everyone needs captcha!
Whether you are a private navigator with a private e-mail  or an owner of a blog or a forum – if you don’t want others to abuse your platform and / or spam it for their own good, you need protection.

Why do people use spam?

One of the reason for online spamming is the wish to achieve a higher “Search Engine Ranking”, which can be done, among other tactics, like SEO and advertising networks, by getting relevant links to your site.
How can one get more links to his website? Among other, getting additional links can be done by simply inserting messages with your link into other websites that allow it, like forums or blogs.

Why do business marketing use spam?
For the same reason – to achieve a higher ranking as well as better traffic to their business through posting advertisements to mailboxes of innocent users as well as to all kinds of online platform (blogs, forums and social media platforms such as facebook, digg and even flickr).

How is it done?
It should be noted that only a minority of online business uses manual spammers while the majority uses spam robots.
The automatic spamming is done by bots that spider the web for all kinds of  users forms and then post a spam message of advertisement.

Can you protect your e-mail box or website from spammers?
Yes, you can. One of the options is to use Captcha and thus prevent registration of spamming bots to your site, or, if we talk about mail-spamming, to use Hydmail which is a special kind of Captcha programmed for mailbox and cannot be deciphered by spam robots.
