Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Hi Keri,

Those are users without Java-Support. 
Does that mean that Java Script is no issue then?

Good point, thanks.

As 15% of our visitors don't have Java, this won't work out

Actually we're trying to get rid of the captcha to increase our CR, that's why the "honeypot" version is very appealing.

Hi guys,

in order to get rid of our very old-school captcha on our contact form at troteclaser.com, we would like to use a honeypot captcha.

The idea is to add a field that is hidden to human visitors but likely to be filled in by spam-bots. In this way we can sort our all those spam contact requests.
More details on "honeypot captchas":

Any idea if this single cloaked field will have negative SEO-impacts? Or is there another alternative to keep out those spam-bots?

Thomas
