      What makes us different from other spam protection services? Why choose us?

      1. No Captcha or other actions required from the user. This lowers the conversion, irritates the customer and makes them leave. They are unsafe and let a lot of spam in, transferring the problem form webmaster to the customers, which means that you have spam problems and you don’t know what to do about them. You don’t know how many customers you’ve lost because they couldn’t insert symbols right.
      2. It’s more reliable than similar systems. Those systems let the spam in; they have different operation principle and can’t be as reliable as CleanTalk. CleanTalk algorithms estimate user’s behavior and the way he fills out the forms. These multilevel checks enable CleanTalk to reach high efficiency in spam protection. With other protection systems, real users might be mistaken for spam, they put all spam messages in a spam folder and you have to look through it all the time not to miss a client. This folder has to be cleaned all the time, which leads to more load on the website and it starts to work slower.
      3. CleanTalk is more reliable than protection based on JavaScript check. It’s worth mentioning that spambots can run JavaScript and their number grows, meaning that spam grows too. Some customers turn off the JavaScript support in their browsers for safety purposes, these customers leave without you even knowing about it.
      4. Clear statistics. CleanTalk extremely open statistics for all incoming registrations/ comments, which gives you full control of the process. You will never miss a message. In order to inform clients, CleanTalk sends weekly report to your e-mail, containing information on the number of approved and spam registrations/comments. CleanTalk provides you with diagrams for your every website and you can see the dynamics of spam activity or rightful comments/registrations on your website.
      5. CleanTalk protects all forms at once – comments, registration, feedback, contact, reviews. There’s no need to install a separate plug-in for a specific form.
      6. Easy to install and use. Even my grandma can do it.
      7. CleanTalk operates automatically, which saves your time and resources, letting you focus on developing and improving your web-site and business without being distracted by other matters.
      8. CleanTalk is a premium service. This guarantees that plug-in won’t disappear the way others do, you can always contact technical support and your request will be processed promptly. We seek to provide high class service and cannot afford to distribute a free version, since they always have limitations, which influences the quality of spam protection.

      Even more opportunities to provide protection from spam on Joomla.

      CleanTalk is a SaaS spam protection service for Web-sites. CleanTalk uses protection methods which are invisible for site visitors. Connecting to the service eliminates needs for CAPTCHA, questions and answers and other methods of protection, complicating the exchange of information on the site.

      Many don’t think about the importance of reliable spam protection. But, it’s something we all must face. Yes, eliminating spam attacks takes time, and valuable resources. However, not providing such protections looks bad in the eyes of clients. And, it can lead to a loss of reputation.

      Just think what would be done to owners of Joomla web sites, if spam attacks mislead clients, directing them to malicious websites. Intruders add loads of malicious content to web sites and there is no time to eliminate it. Spambots are the problem for every website on the Internet and CleanTalk is meant to get rid of such situations. CleanTalk is a preventative system of spambots protection, invisible to the website visitors and providing 100% efficiency.

      CleanTalk Company is happy to announce to all Joomla users, that they have launched the newest version of anti-spam plugin.

      In the new version, CleanTalk is able to employ the spam protection mechanism for free forms (contacts, comments, registrations). Before, CleanTalk could only provide protection for the most popular or standard forms. The employment of protection for the new forms took time and complicated the development. Considering the great number of plugins, it seemed impossible to create protection for each one separately.

      The new plugin mechanism enables support to various forms of different authors. The idea is for the plugin to monitor actions on websites and every time there’s a registration or a new comment, CleanTalk estimated the parameters of the form filling and the visitor’s behavior. The service checks these parameters for signs of spambots and makes decisions, whether it’s a person or a spambot. The spambot protection for free forms is set via the plugin settings.

      CleanTalk sends a weekly report of all activity. It lets you access a record of each (trans)action, at any given moment. Users can also see the dynamics of spam attacks and useful comments. With the help of a mobile app, you can control and receive information about registrations/comments directly to your mobile device (available for iPad/iPhone and Android).

      Considering the amount of comment and registration plugins that are susceptible to spam attacks, by one means or another, CleanTalk becomes an important tool in provision of spam protection, and which is necessary for companies to keep in their arsenal.
