This is an online email “id to image” generator which is very easy and simple to use. When you open the above link you will see the following page where you should fill up your email id and then hit the option “Generate”.

Just wait for a while and you can see your email icon in the form of an image.

Some more tricks :

Apart from the above two highly effective processes, there are a few more methods to share your email address publicly without the risk of being spammed. Here’s how :

1. Remove “@” character from your Email address : Instead of sharing your email id with its actual form i,e [blog.ttg@gmail.com] you can share it using the form [blog.ttg(at)gmail(dot)com]. This technique also prevents your email id from being spammed.
2. Using Email Encoder : This is also a very unique and interesting option that you can adopt. Here your email id is encoded into its corresponding decimal entity which the spam bots cannot recognize. When you open the link you will find a space where you should give your Email address and after giving it just click on “Encode”.

After you have clicked you will see the encoded form of your email address in the space provided.

Having obtained the encoded version, share this instead of sharing your email id. When the above encoded form is published, in the front-end it will still appear as [blog.ttg(at)gmail.com], however spamming bots will see it in encoded form as above and thus you will be safe. But still, this technique is not the ultimate solution, since some high end software such as that used by Google’s™ search engine can still recognize your email address inspite of the encoded version. Nevertheless, this technique will certainly be very helpful in minimizing the exposure of your id to less capable software used by some subdued search engines.
