Earning trust

Hi everyone,

This is a quick Friday post to acknowledge certain concerns and questions about using a service like Disqus to handle a vital component of your blog. We want everyone to know that we understand how important comments and discussion is to a website. In fact, this is exactly why Disqus exists.

I intend to go into more detail soon. We’re happy to be working on something that makes bloggers excitedly eager to buzz about, and we fully intend to earn your trust every step of the way.

Have a good weekend,

Daniel @ Disqus

  • Disqus has proven to be a very beneficial asset in promoting businesses with the advent of your commenting system. Looking forward to continue going and growing with your help! Thanks!
  • Comments are as precious as diamonds to me. It serves as a reminder and a way to improve for the better. Hence, without a good commenting system, with good speed and performance, will definitely be disaster for me.

    Most of the features that Disqus pushed out are all with a wow factor to it. Nothing are a waste of effort and mostly are stuffs that I've never thought of and seriously felt that its very useful. Will be waiting eagerly for more to come!

    Hi Would like to voice out my suggestions to what other improvements you all can have. I realised that the Disqus homepage once we logged in. Only show the number of pages we have for our comments but it didn't state how many comments are there! I don't its difficult to implement and its useful for me.Thanks

    Disqus is an efficient website providing us a very great platform to get so many sites instantly to post our blogs there without taking any tension of nofollow because that's the main hindrance of not dropping your blog in one's site.. You can easily find sites there with dofollow tags and with with good ranks.. I guess accepting your deficiencies is the major reason that has build your trust on us..

    Hi i am actually researching on disqus commenting tool for our company. New to the system and we are actually having small problems with it. Will we be able to export the list of comments with their emails out from disqus?

    Kevin, I think this is a great point. I quite enjoy the features and versatility of Disqus (though I'm not so fond of the fact that I lose pointed every time I post on a thread and a stranger who isn't on Disqus votes me does because I didn't agree with them) and what to make certain it is available well into the future.

  • Thanks Leo for the nice little commenting blog add-on, I didn't know anything like this existed!!
  • Thanks for this post. I have been thinking about using Disqus on a new site, and had voiced concerns. Will be interesting to see your thoughts at some point.

  • What's your business plan to keep Disqus from "going away" and taking my comments with it?

    What's your backup plan? Off-site? Tape retention time frame? Do you have multiple geographically separate datacenters with a full failover contingency in place?

    Etcetera

  • Great point. I'm sure they'll address that as stated in the blog post, though, but it's still worth pointing out.
  • Hi, Daniel! I would love to get you on our net@night podcast with Amber on Tuesday, May 20 at 4p Pacific via Skype or iChat. Can you do it? Email me? (Use my first name at leoville.com for the email.) Thanks!
