I have a "add a site" link on my "work from home" website. How can I stop ppl from sending "spam request" which are mostly porno and crap like that. I get anywhere from 50-100 of them everyday, and I'm sick of it.

I would like only ppl that are involved in working from home sending me their request.

Does anyone know how I can solve this problem.

Your help would be appreciated.

Thanks

What's your site? You may want to try and draw more targeted traffic. Sometimes when you are getting traffic from places like traffic exchanges,etc... you get a lot of that...Put a link to your site in your sig line on forums, etc to draw more targeted traffic - people that are actually interested in what you have to offer!

Blessings,
Viola

Consider adding a captcha function to prevent automated submissions like I have done on the contact form of this forum.

Just add a bit of JavaScript or php to look for certain key words or phrases and blocking the ones you don't want. If you don't have any experience with scripting, you could probably get someone on Elance to do it for you. (Btw, it shouldn't be that much code, so don't let them rip you off by making it sound technical and scary because as far as programming goes it's not that complicated, lol.)
