Resources
Tools we actually use.
A short, honest list. Some of these links are referral links, which is marked clearly on each one. Nothing is here purely because it pays.

Everything else
Uptime monitoring
Know your site is down before a customer tells you. Any monitor that checks from more than one region and can reach you on your phone will do — the important part is that somebody actually gets the alert.
Webhook inspection
If you use Spamo's webhook forwarding, a request bin that shows you the raw POST body saves hours. Point Spamo at it once, send a test lead, and you can see exactly what shape the JSON arrives in.
A real sending address
Notifications only help if they arrive. Send from a domain you control with SPF, DKIM and DMARC set up. A form that silently stops emailing you is worse than one that never worked.
And the obvious one
Spamo itself is free for 500 submissions a month, on one site, with no card. If your contact form is collecting junk, that is enough to find out whether this fixes it.
