We really love it when people read this blog and leave their comments. I wish everyone who read this blog would do that, it would be fantastic! We work hard to research topics, speak from our experience and make an effort to teach our readers something new with every posting we make. We’ve had over 23,500 views as of this time (thank you!) and it sure would be amazing if we had even half that many comments!
Heck, we’d be happy if one in ten would leave a word or two about their thoughts on the subject.
Instead, what we see a lot are other outdoor lighting installers, distributors and others posting in the comment section nothing more than a few words with links to THEIR websites! They are not comments – they are ads. It’s not that I mind links to great content because I’m a firm believer in sharing wonderful information that can be accessed from our blog. But I am against those who try to use our blog to promote their own businesses, most of which I would not endorse at all. Pretty much everyone who has left these links are, in fact, those who I would advise our readers to stay very far away from!
If you have a business and you would like your customers to get the kind of content that we have here on this blog, then please put a link to our blog on your website. If you don’t want to do that, take the time and put in the effort to write your own blog. Don’t use our hard work and time to try to get free advertising for your company. Aside from being unethical, potentially fraudulent, and dishonest — it’s just rude! We don’t generally make many endorsements through this blog, but would be happy to consider your product or service if you make a formal request – just email us.
So please, leave your comments on our subject matter, or even pose questions. But don’t try to add a link to your business – it just won’t make it to the blog. (We have to approve all posts before they are allowed to be viewed publicly.) If you want to guest blog, let us know and we’ll discuss it. If you would like to link to this blog, by all means do that, and we’ll try to educate your web visitors about outdoor lighting.
We can’t wait to see the comments that this blog generates!
If you would rather email us, please do that here.
