Create and Add your Own Contact Form to Blogger

If you are a blogger then you must have your own contact form to communicate with your blog readers and visitors. You cannot post your email ID to public because you will get lot of SPAM massages.
Blogger don't give any contact forms for their blogs, so we need to create it and add it ourselves. You can create contact form through Google docs or the simple way is to get it easily from another source.
There are many contact form providers but I will go with Kontactr because it's easy. Register with them and they will give you the code.
Here you can find three types of codes. Let's discuss them.

Ajax Embed Widget Contact Form for Blogger

The first option you will have is the Ajax embed form. Simply copy the code and add it where you want to have your form to be seen. You can also customize the look of it according to your styles by clicking the "Customize" button:



Button Code

It is a text link or a button. When the link is clicked it will direct the user to your contact page which is provided by Kontactr. This can be useful when any person wants to contact you and his browser does not supports JavaScript or you want to use it in any other website, forums, etc.

HTML Embed Contact Form

This is best to use for your blog as it uses no JavaScript. It's based on HTML codes using table form, and can be seen in any Lynx based browsers.

Adding Contact Form to Blogger

Choose any one of the above told ways and after selecting and customizing the type of form you want, copy any one of the code that they will provide to your clipboard.
Now, to add the contact form, create a new post, write ‘when, why, how, etc.’ to contact you, paste the any one of the codes mentioned above and publish it. You will have your own contact form for blogger.

Hiding the Contact Me Page Appearing on Homepage of Blogger

You don’t want the contact page to be viewed on homepage. So while publishing the post, back-date it. For example: today’s date is 7/8/2009, then set the date to 6/25/2009 and then publish it.
