The set up you now have, in your latest post, the red print sends potential clients to http://www.rmeastern.idxbroker.com/idx/contact

which is your company contact and it might not reach you. Change that to http://www.rmeastern.idxbroker.com/idx/contact.php?agentID=113765

and those contacts have a bteer chance of reaching you directly.

For the email address you posted in the same blog you have HannahReMax@gmail.com  To make this open an email program click on the <> in the menu of your blog while you are editing it and add  "mailto:" without the quotes in front of your email  address, click ok, and it will open an email program on the viewers computer with your email address already inserted.

and as far as the spam goes, it is just a part of lead generation. A lot of people do not want to fill out a contact form and only want to send an email directly to you. Good Luck.

If I understand what you want to do... if so, the answer is easy. I would add a hyperlink to your email rather than a website, and voila. You see, a 'link' can be a URL to a website (like a contact page) or direct to your email... it's in all HTML coding, even on this Q&A blog

richard@richardbazinet.com   <----- this is an example. Try it...

I suggest hyperlinking CLICK HERE to a lead capture landing page.

DO NOT EXPOSE YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS or you will become the victim of those who will 'spoof' your identity.

Hannah,

I think that Annette Lawrence , Palm Harbor, FL 727-420-4041 made an excellent point. Our email was visible on AR and we ended up spending 3 months changing all our addresses including phone number.   I think there is a way to say: Contact me without exposing your email.  We have that on our site.

This is a good question ... seems there are a number of those who caution exposing your email address ... however, we have our email everywhere so I don't see how it can hurt.  We will always get spam and emails we don't want.  But if we want business, it comes with the territory.  IMHO

I have a policy for us and all of our clients that we do not publish our email addresses on the internet because the phishers scrape the internet looking for email addresses to then try to hack into your email and other things. 

What you want is to capture the person's email address. The best way to do that is to offer a really compelling lead magnet, they click the link for your lead magnet, that takes them to the landing page with the optin form where they give you their email address,  and in return, you deliver the lead magnet and then follow up in Your CRM.

I would not want more opportunities to create opportunites to get more spam eMail.   Anyone really want to find you can get your phone number .

You are getting crab in AR in box now as some Africa Queen was interested in Sam & his thin wallet.
