How To Add An Email Link?
You can either use the contact form or add an email link in your blog or website for visitors to contact you.
So how to link to email? There are a few ways to go about doing it.
Option 1 : Indicate the email address like this e.g. xxx@starzlet.com on your blog or website. However, you are exposing to spammers if you show your email address (as shown) on your website since the email address is easily searchable via search engines.
Option 2 : Create a clickable text link using this code Email me now!
Option 3 : Create a clickable image link if you want the visitor to email you by clicking on an image like this
You have to upload your image to your website or sites like Flickr or Photobucket. After you uploaded the image, you should have an absolute link that looks like this e.g. http://www.starzlet.com/Blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/email_icon.gif or http://i675.photobucket.com/albums/vv114/xxx/email_icon.gif (if you upload to Photobucket)
Once you have the absolute link of your uploaded image http://www.starzlet.com/Blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/email_icon.gif and your email address xxx@starzlet.com.
Copy this code <a href=”mailto:xxx@starzlet.com”><img src=”http://www.starzlet.com/Blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/email_icon.gif” width=”17″ height=”15″ border=”0″ alt=”Email me now!” /></a>
Using option 2 and 3 will hide your email address and the visitor has to click on it to contact you.
