Testimonials
Now let’s see what WordPress.org users have to say about Like Button Voting & Rating plugin:
“After looking into over 10 of the highest rated “rating” plug-ins offered for WP and testing at least 5, Like Button is by far the BEST out there. If it indeed, does not “expire” after the 7-day trial then this may be one of my top 3 plug-ins I’ve ever used/experienced. No exaggeration. If you too are on the prowl for a good rating plug-in, look no further!” – gossipbomb
“Great plugin and great support. Configuration was easy, documentation is clear and support answers really fast. I recommend it.” – clivio
“This is the best “like” button on the market. And the technical support is fantastic!” – elena528
