The Real Person Badge

A benchmark system for WordPress
that separates real users from bots.

The Real Person Badge is free and is a part
of the Anti-Spam protection cloud service.

What is The Real Person Badge

Bots are among us all over the internet. They visit websites, gather information, write comments and reviews. So how to distinguish such a bot from a real comment or review author?

The Real Person Badge shows special badge for author of a comment or review, that the author passed all Anti-Spam filters and acts as a real person. As well as his email is confirmed to be existing.

It improves quality of users generated content on your website by proving that the content is not from spambots.

Your visitors will be grateful

More comments
The more people are interested
in discussions with real people
– the more comments you get.
Increase trust
People always trust sites populated
by real users more. While real reviews help you sell your products or services.
Save time
Save your visitors' time by highlighting only those comments and reviews that are worth reading and replying.

How it looks

See more live examples of The Real Person badge in our blog (Recent Comments widget) or in one of our posts.

If you mouse over the badge, you will see this message:
Author acts as a real person and verified as not a bot.
Passed all tests against spam bots. Anti-Spam by CleanTalk.

How it works

1
A user submits a review or a comment
Using any form on your WordPress website.
2
The Plugin collects author's data
The Anti-Spam plugin captures over 100 parameters associated with the author and sends them to the CleanTalk cloud.
3
The Cloud makes a decision
And sends it back to the plugin on your website.
4
Author gets The Real Person badge
...or not, depending on the Cloud decision.
