Growmap Anti Spambot Plugin(GASP) – Get rid of annoying CAPTCHA

Earlier we shared 5 plugins for implementing captcha in WordPress comment form, However due to the fact that people are more likely not to comment on captcha enabled blogs, which result in less number of comments on your blog. We come-up with an alternative solution.

In this tutorial, we discussed an alternative of captcha, a plugin called GASP (Growmap Anti spambot Plugin). This plugin adds a checkbox at the end of the comment form, which needs to be checked in for submitting a comment. The check-box is not visible to the bots, which prevents the comment submission from a software/bots. This is how it looks once setup properly on your blog.

As you can see in the above screenshot that until unless the checkbox – “confirm you are not a spammer” is not checked in, the comments are not getting submitted. For a human it takes a moment to check this box compared, which is much more easier than filling an annoying CAPTCHA.

If you like this plugin and wanna implement it on your blog then download it from the below link, install it on your blog and activate it.
