How to hide your email links from email spiders

Email spider software is used to collect as many email addresses from the Internet as possible so the owner can spam you with email later.

Publishing your Web site to the COE server

Before publishing your site review all of the files and folders in your site to ensure that:

• none of the file names include spaces, commas, slashes, question marks, or other "extended" characters [(~!@$%^&*{}:;\ /+'<>?)]
• none of the file names have extra periods (dots) or extra extensions, e.g., fav.math.sites.html, horse.jpeg.jpeg, cat.gif.gif
• each file name length does not exceed 8 characters
• each HTML file name ends with .htm or .html
• each GIF file name ends with .gif
• each JPEG file name ends with .jpg or .jpeg
• all folders and file names are lowercase letters
• your home page is named index.html (Do not use the file name index.htm.)
• all CSS and JavaScript files are in the main folder
• all gif and jpg files referenced in CSS and JavaScript files are in the main folder
• all other image files, files for download (e.g., pdf, doc) are in subfolders
• you have removed all temporary and test files that are not part of your site
• your Web site complies with all ASU policies on computer use. (The COE Server may only be used for non commercial purposes and copyright laws must be followed. Violations may result in anything from warnings to immediate deletion of accounts and stored files and reports to the University and proper authorities.)
