We are pleased to announce the Hawkins Internet Add Comments Section software.
This software allows you to add a comments section to any web page that you have, all you have to do is copy the code and insert it into your page. It does not require any modification. A comment section will appear on your web page and users will be able to submit comments. Spam is mitigated by using a CAPTCHA form. The administrator has a user interface that allows for deleting comments. The database is hosted in the cloud and all you have to do is insert a snipet of code on to your webpage. The comments form itself can be easily modified to give a new look. The administration interface allows you to manage your comments. An example is at www.suseed.com
Some upcoming features:
1) Add a “Report Abuse” link
2)Â Allow users to reply to other comments
3) Allow users to rank comments
4) Allow the user interface to be able to manage comments by seperate website
5) Ability to embed advertisement links in the comments section
The advantage over using a facebook comment section is the fact that the comments will affect advertisements being served on the website. This generates more revenue by allowing those advertisements to take advantage of the keywords in the comments section, it also allows search engines to better find your site as those comments would be indexed into the search engine as well. Lastly, as opposed to facebook comments, you will own your user’s comments and will be able to include them in your website’s copyright.
Requirements: mySQL and PHP 5+
Hawkins Hosting Blog : $12/year
This is a remotely hosted blog, powered by wordpress, that has an unlimited line of free tools, templates (designs), and add-ons. It can also serve as a content management system (CMS), where you can add webpages, links, and even have your own photo gallery so you don’t ever have to worry reorganizing and deleting a single photo. It is far from limiting. Anyone–of any skillset–can create their own website and blog in just a few minutes. The best part is that you can add unlimited content.
