I know you have heard of a number of anti-spam plugins. But you must know, the cloud-based ones are the best regarding detection rate. They compare all the content in forms with their own algorithm to find out the legibility. www.techwibe.com
Het belangrijkste verkoopargument van CleanTalk is voor mij niet alleen de effectiviteit ervan. Het is het feit dat CleanTalk op de achtergrond werkt. Het zorgt er niet voor dat gebruikers door hoepels springen om een opmerking in te dienen of een formulier in te vullen. www.kevinmuldoon.com

How does CleanTalk improve SEO for your website?
CleanTalk works faster than most of the other anti-spam plugins. It is common knowledge that the faster your site loads, the better your customer experience is, the better your SEO will be, and the better your site will convert. Speed is becoming increasingly important in SEO, conversion and user experience. Today, site speed is one of the most important ranking factors on Google. A site that loads slowly will lose visitors and potential revenue.
Among anti-spam plugins CleanTalk is one of the fastest. Despite the large plugin functionality, the developers have optimized the performance of the plugin so that AntiSpam by CleanTalk is faster than most analogs. This contributes to the cloud service architecture, as all calculations take place in the cloud, not on the server, the server receives the finished result for further action.

Unlike stand-alone plugins (like Antispam Bee) Anti-Spam by CleanTalk uses less CPU that improves site response, visitors experience and SEO results.
Spam FireWall
Spam FireWall allows blocking the most active spam bots before they get access to your website. It prevents spam bots from loading website pages so your web server doesn’t have to perform all scripts on these pages. Also it prevents scanning of pages of the website by spam bots. Therefore Spam FireWall significantly reduces the load on your web server. Spam FireWall also makes CleanTalk the two-step protection from spam bots. Spam FireWall is the first step and it blocks the most active spam bots. CleanTalk Anti-Spam is the second step and checks all other requests on the website in the moment of submitting comments/registers etc. How does it work?
- The visitor enters to your web site.
- HTTP-aanvraag gegevens worden gecontroleerd in de bijna 5,8 miljoen van de geïdentificeerde IP-adressen van spambots.
- If it is an active spam bot, the bot gets a blank page, if it is a visitor then he receives a normal page. This process is completely transparent for the visitors.
All the CleanTalk Spam FireWall activity is being logged in the process of filtering.
Spam FireWall: Anti-Flood & Anti-Crawler
Spam FireWall: Anti-Flood and Anti-Crawler options are intended for blocking unwanted bots, content parsing, shop goods prices parsing or aggressive website scanning bots. Learn more https://cleantalk.org/help/anti-flood-and-anti-crawler
How to protect sites from spam bots without CAPTCHA?
The most popular anti-spam method is CAPTCHA – the annoying picture with curved and sloping symbols, which are presented to the visitor to decipher and fill in. In is supposed that spam bots won’t discern these CAPTCHA, but a visitor will. CAPTCHA provokes great irritation, but if the visitor wants to comment, he has to fill in these symbols time after time, making mistakes and starting once again. Sometimes CAPTCHA reminds us of the doodles of a two year old child. For users with vision problems CAPTCHA is an insurmountable obstacle. Users hate captcha. Captcha for users means “hate”. Unreadable CAPTCHA stops about 80% of site visitors. After 2 failed attempts to decipher CAPTCHA 95% of visitors reject further attempts. At the sight of CAPTCHA and after input errors, many visitors leave the resource. Thus, CAPTCHA helps to protect the resource spam both from bots and visitors. CAPTCHA is not a panacea from spam. Doubts concerning the Need for CAPTCHA?
“Ultimately, CAPTCHAs are useless for spam because they’re designed to tell you if someone is ‘human’ or not, but not whether something is spam or not.” Matt Mullenweg
You do not have to work in IT to know what spam is. Besides piles of unwanted email, there are spam bots, or special software programs designed to act as human website visitors that post unwelcome messages over the Internet to advertise dubious services. More often than not spam messages do not even make sense. Similar to bacteria and virus mutations developing antibiotic resistance, spam bots are becoming more resilient in penetrating Internet firewalls and security layers.
Real-time e-mail validatie. Is e-mail echt of niet.
Het is erg belangrijk om er zeker van te zijn dat de gebruiker zijn echte e-mailadres gebruikt. Spambots gebruiken vaak valse e-mailadressen, d.w.z. welke adressen er niet bestaan.
CleanTalk zal het bestaan van e-mailadressen in real time controleren.
Ook niet-bestaande e-mailadressen brengen voor site-eigenaren een aantal andere problemen met zich mee.
- Je kunt nooit per e-mail contact met hen opnemen,
- de klant zal nooit meldingen van je ontvangen (activeringsbrief, wachtwoord herstel, e-mail distributie, meldingen, etc.),
- als je e-mailmarketing voor je klanten gebruikt, kan een groot aantal niet-bestaande e-mails op de mailinglijst ertoe leiden dat je IP-adres wordt toegevoegd aan verschillende zwarte lijsten van e-mailservers.
Improve your email list with email validation without fake emails.
Het blokkeren van wegwerp & tijdelijke e-mails
Blokkeer nep- en verdachte gebruikers met tijdelijke e-mails om de aflevering van e-mails te verbeteren. Het voorkomt dus ook kwaadaardige activiteiten, spam bots en internettrollen.

Stops Spam in Search Form
Spam bots kunnen je zoekformulier gebruiken om een GET aanvraag te doen met spam tekst. CleanTalk Anti-Spam heeft de mogelijkheid om je site zoekformulier te beschermen tegen spam bots. Elke keer genereert de zoekopdracht een nieuwe pagina en als er veel verzoeken zijn, kan dit een extra belasting veroorzaken. Dus, onder bepaalde voorwaarden, kunnen spam-zoekopdrachten worden geïndexeerd, wat van invloed is op SEO,
- Anti-Spam protection for website search forms repels spambots.
- Als je zoekformulier te vaak gegevens krijgt, zal de CleanTalk Anti-Spam plugin een pauze toevoegen en deze bij elke nieuwe poging om gegevens te verzenden verhogen. Het bespaart je webserver processor tijd.
- Spam protection allows you to not forbid indexation for the crawler bots if you really need it but simultaneously you will get protection from spambots.
Je weet altijd waar gebruikers op je site naar op zoek waren.
Reacties uitschakelen
This option disables comments on your site. You can choose one or several options:
- Schakel reacties uit voor berichten

Email, Phones Address Encoder
CleanTalk Anti-Spam offers a feature called “Encode contact data” that is designed to encode all email addresses on the website pages.

Yes, it will. The Anti-spam by CleanTalk is compatible with any WordPress theme.
Should I use other anti-spam tools (Captcha, reCaptcha and etc.)?

Honeypot field
The option helps to block bots. The honeypot field option adds a hidden field to the form. When spambots come to a website form, they can fill out each input field. Enable this option to make the protection stronger on these forms. Learn more about supported forms here.
