It is so important to ask that satisfied clients post a review on Google Places or other local search engines such as Yelp, and its a great idea to offer an incentive, such as a discount. I'll give it a try next time. function sbmgOptinValidateForm640(name,email) { var email_fld = document.getElementById('sbmgOptinValidateForm640' + '_' + email); var reg = /^([A-Za-z0-9_\-\.])+\@([A-Za-z0-9_\-\.])+\.([A-Za-z]{2,4})$/; var msg = ''; if ( reg.test(email_fld.value) == false ) msg += '- Valid Email Required'; if ( msg == '' ) return true; else alert(msg); return false; }

If I go to the site, i can see what I wrote, and can edit or delete, but its yet to be posted, public. How long does this take for it to finally be public? There are 7 other reviews over the past year or so, but mine has not gone public. (note: its a GREAT review of the attorney, with no swearing, vulgarity, etc). I'd love to know the answer. Thanks Dennis function sbmgOptinValidateForm557(name,email) { var email_fld = document.getElementById('sbmgOptinValidateForm557' + '_' + email); var reg = /^([A-Za-z0-9_\-\.])+\@([A-Za-z0-9_\-\.])+\.([A-Za-z]{2,4})$/; var msg = ''; if ( reg.test(email_fld.value) == false ) msg += '- Valid Email Required'; if ( msg == '' ) return true; else alert(msg); return false; }

I think it's to prevent bot spam, but you'd think there'd be a better way to post reviews on Google and all major 3rd party review sites. function sbmgOptinValidateForm778(name,email) { var email_fld = document.getElementById('sbmgOptinValidateForm778' + '_' + email); var reg = /^([A-Za-z0-9_\-\.])+\@([A-Za-z0-9_\-\.])+\.([A-Za-z]{2,4})$/; var msg = ''; if ( reg.test(email_fld.value) == false ) msg += '- Valid Email Required'; if ( msg == '' ) return true; else alert(msg); return false; }

Google MUST visit this issue and create a more intuitive way for Non-Google account subscribers to leave their reviews and comments of businesses from which they have received have received goods and services. Otherwise, the review system offered by Google will be at best difficult to use and very much inefficient. function sbmgOptinValidateForm68(name,email) { var email_fld = document.getElementById('sbmgOptinValidateForm68' + '_' + email); var reg = /^([A-Za-z0-9_\-\.])+\@([A-Za-z0-9_\-\.])+\.([A-Za-z]{2,4})$/; var msg = ''; if ( reg.test(email_fld.value) == false ) msg += '- Valid Email Required'; if ( msg == '' ) return true; else alert(msg); return false; }

Have tried an ethical bribe...? Did you send them this video on how to post. There are 3rd party reviews sites that let people connect via their Facebook Accounts. It doesn't have to Google Places you get the review from. Often these 3rd party sites get picked up in Google Places. function sbmgOptinValidateForm923(name,email) { var email_fld = document.getElementById('sbmgOptinValidateForm923' + '_' + email); var reg = /^([A-Za-z0-9_\-\.])+\@([A-Za-z0-9_\-\.])+\.([A-Za-z]{2,4})$/; var msg = ''; if ( reg.test(email_fld.value) == false ) msg += '- Valid Email Required'; if ( msg == '' ) return true; else alert(msg); return false; }
