I needed to add a reCaptcha to a contact form on a large website I recently built. Shortly after the website went live, there was a massive amount of spam coming from the contact form, so the obvious thing to do was to add a reCaptcha to it.
I added a reCaptcha and it worked great, but the ony issue I had was that it couldn't validate if the reCaptcha had been checked on the client side. To do this required the form to be posted back to the server side. As the other form fields were validated on the client side, it looked strange that you could submit the form without checking the reCaptcha and only then show a message to say the reCaptcha needed checking. But I managed to find a way of doing it using JavaScript.

Maybe not, a web presence can be enough for many businesses. It could be a website, but it could also be a Facebook business page, a Google business page, an eBay shop or something else.
