Updated FreeIndex help and support

We have just launched an improved FreeIndex help and support area. In the past people have complained that it was difficult to get help or to make contact with us, and this update addresses this problem.

Our new ticket support system ensures that all the enquiries we get are answered in a timely manner (normally within 24 hours) and that we can follow up people’s problems and questions until they are completely resolved. If you have a support query, you can contact us here.

More help has also been added to the forum which contains the answers to 95% of the popular questions we get asked. You might also like to read a new article we have written about what makes us different from the rest!

Hi Free Index We had 11 reviews before the upgrade????
What happened this probably explains why we have been having such a poor response this year from your site

Hi freeindex team. You seem to have changed the font colour on testimonial website links to yellow and it makes it very hard to read. Please check out my site www.damageundone.com and click on the testimonial page in the left hand bar to see what I mean.
