How to prevent bots from registering on your website

I am receiving numerous registrations from test emails and I suspect bot registrations. I have the reCaptcha in place and email verification setup but still these test registrations go through.

They’re all from imailfree.cc

Hi,

Please make sure that registration is disabled in the WordPress/Settings/General section, this enables the back-end registration form and many spam bots to detect it.

Hello andrii and thanks for the prompt response.

I unchecked the “Anyone can register” box and haven’t had a bot registration thereafter.

Thank you
