Testimonials Posts

Not sure if anyone other than me notices this... but I must delete at least 2-3 junk testimonial posts daily from the website.  This page here, in case you're unfamiliar.

There used to be two distinct pages on the website, guestbook and testimonials.  Anyone could post in the guestbook, but the testimonials needed to be approved.  I had some awesome testimonials!  Unfortunately, the web host decided to discontinue that app awhile back, and so most of those were lost, and all that's left now is the guestbook page (which I have re-named testimonials, in effort to hide it from the spammers).

See, if you go on there, you fill out the form at the top, and press submit, and it shows up on the site.  So, at any given day, you may find postings for viagra, computer repair, illegible writing, etc etc.  That drives me insane. 

The sad thing is, very few people actually post reviews / guestbook posts / actual testimonials.  If you look at that, the last one is from April of 2017!  I know I've had happy customers since then, come on people, let's post some happy thoughts / reviews / etc! 

Every time someone completes that form, I get an email that basically says, "you have a new guestbook signature!"  Every time I see that (so, several times a day), I go look at the website, like excited, thinking maybe this time, it's a real post and not another viagra selling ad.  Nope!  Not since April of 2017.  Boo.  Disappointed every time.

We also do have facebook reviews open, if anyone prefers reviewing on that, that's always an option as well.  Not a ton of people do that either, but definitely more of those than the testimonials posts!
