Online Candidate Client Reviews and Testimonials

Below are some actual comments, reviews and testimonials from some of our customers about our Online Candidate websites and services.

Our personal favorite...

"As a first time candidate for office, I had selected the most inexpensive campaign website avaialble. I had difficulty setting-up the site, but when it was completed it was very presentable. Within a few days however the website habitually was off line and many emails to explain or fix the problems went unanswered."

"With election day looming I made a decision to go to another website. I found online candidate and the very personable Carol Daley. She immediately realized the urgency (I had an online ad pointing to the website) of my predicament and began offering alternatives.) She had the new website up an running within thirty minutes and continued to make improvements to the new website. I learned quite a bit from Carol who is very informative."

"It is refreshing to talk to a person instead of receiving the "your issue will be addressed within twenty four hours" email. I find Carol to be a taskmaster and a great trouble shooter."

"The price differnce was nominal and onlinecandidate.com provided me with so much more timely support."

You are tremendous!!!

"How easy was that?!? You are tremendous!!! Thank you. There is still more I want to do, but it’s a pretty decent looking site considering we got it up and going in .. what? .. less than 48 hours, right? I purchased the subscription on Tuesday morning!"
- Grace Carlson

Invaluable

"Tomorrow's the day. I formally announce at noon. Activated the web site tonight which I was itching to do for weeks. Your help along with the help from your husband in designing the site is going to go a long way to help me change the law enforcement perspective down here in Florida. Your site templates, brochure templates and book that contained so much information has been invaluable to me."
