Comments on: Google Sidewiki – Comments No Longer Closed, Interaction Required http://www.matthewsdiehl.com/google/google-sidewiki-comments-no-longer-closed-interaction-required/ by Matthew Diehl Fri, 06 Jan 2012 02:40:44 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Jon http://www.matthewsdiehl.com/google/google-sidewiki-comments-no-longer-closed-interaction-required/#comment-193 Jon Sun, 01 Nov 2009 14:59:17 +0000 http://www.matthewsdiehl.com/?p=523#comment-193 I am sure Sidewiki could be a thorn in the side of many webmasters, but it also could be a useful tool. Seeing what people have to say, positive and negative, can build trust in a site. Careful monitoring is key.

Thanks for the tip on the monitoring tool. I bet this will be very helpful to site owners if Sidewiki continue to pick up users.

You should monitor the SideWiki comments on your own site(s) closely and act promptly on negative comments. There are now tools available that can monitor SideWiki comments for you, and alert you when new comments are posted. http://www.updatepatrol.com/monitor-sidewiki-comments-and-sidewiki-alerts.html I surely understand why many webmasters don’t like SideWiki and fear that competitors will use it to add comments to your site that will be as helpful as the comments that graffiti artists add to bathroom walls.
