GoodGuest - Safe and Easy Online Guestbooks

Anyone who has kept an online guestbook has invariably gotten hit by spammers. Almost all free and custom-built guestbooks are vulnerable to spam attacks. At first it may only be one or two isolated cases, but over time it gets worse. You may wake up one morning and find that your guestbook has dozens if not hundreds of posts from spammers advertising pharmaceuticals and other intrusive products and/or services. Deleting them all can become so time-consuming that you may give up keeping a guestbook altogether.

Take Back Control!

GoodGuest is a free guestbook system that protects you from spammers. While we cannot stop every single post that may potentially become spam, we do stop all automated spammers (the ones that post dozens at a time) and discourage diligent groups like the Nigerian 419 spammers. We even give you the control to create your own anti-spam filters to block new posts by email addresses, keywords and phrases.

We also make it pointless for spammers to visit your guestbook in search of email addresses. The reason is that while our system allows your guests to include email addresses, all email addresses are hidden from any visitor--meaning that email farmers won't get any crops from our site.

Safe Guestbooks

The developer of GoodGuest is Shawn Olson, a web programmer and photojournalist who has already implemented the GoodGuest system on his own safe guestbook and in all Guestbook system at the Artistic Network. With built-in verification systems, personalized filters and easy to manage controls, the system is safe, effective and simple.
