Announcing Recommendations on Our Family of Websites

Whether or not we realize it, we all live and work in a networked world. Reputations and relationships matter and have more influence over our decisions than most of us would like to admit. In a world of information overload, people are reverting back to old habits and practices such as word of mouth when making decisions online. Sure, advertising is still important to create awareness but the final decision making seems to be increasingly driven by real, honest recommendations.

Recommendations are a valuable way to enhance your online presence and a simple way to help viewers gain an idea of what others have to say about you and your work. Today, we’re delighted to bring you a new feature on our marketplace of websites which allows you to invite clients, co-workers, neighbours, (basically anyone who can vouch for your work) to write a recommendation.

Users now have the opportunity to send out requests for recommendations by simply entering an email address. They will be notified once they have received a recommendation, which will appear under the description on their profile. Viewers who are logged in will be able to see the recommendations and will use them as a way to learn more about individuals and to determine if they are a good match for what they need.

With our recommendations feature you can:

  • Invite others to recommend you

  • View your pending and current recommendations

  • Remove any recommendations you don’t want to show up on your profile

Connecting individuals with the service they are looking for is incredibly important to us—and as our communities grow, we’ve been excited to help users make the best possible connections on our websites
