Whenever you run a website, most likely you will have a contact page. Many websites directly publish their email address on their Contact Us page. This is great for customers being able to reach them in a quick manner. However by doing this, the risk of spam arises. Your email could be added to some newsletter without your consent or be used for other unethical purposes. In a way the Internet is like a corrupted city, anything goes on the streets. Let's just say I learned that the hard way…
There has to be an easier/functional way to avoid this problem. The solution is simple; By creating an easy to use contact form, you give the ability for users, clients, or potential customers to reach you in a matter of seconds. You get a great feeling of satisfaction, while the person trying to reach you won't have to waste their time opening an email client, typing in their username/password, and finally composing a message.
