How to add a Flyout Testimonial Display to your website

Flyout Testimonial Display Widget from VocalReferences

VocalReferences offers a number of ways for you to display your text and video testimonials on your webpage.  The basic approach to adding our displays to your website is similar.  You configure the display in our Merchant Center, based on your individual requirements and then you copy and paste the code that we generate for you into your webpage.  Once the code is in your webpage, there is no need to touch the code again.  If you wish to make changes to the display simply make the changes in the Merchant Center and click the “Save” button.  The next visitor to your web page will see the changes automatically.

The Flyout Testimonial Display widget was designed to work with any design and any environment.  One does not need to make any design changes to existing webpages to embed the Flyout Display widget.  The Flyout Display widget sits on top of the page and on the side so as not to bother other aspects of the page.  Only when a visitor mouse’s over the Flyout Display tab will the Display slide open.  This approach will allow you to embed your testimonials on any page, including your home page, without any intrusions.
