According to me positive reviews are like the apple of the eye for a business. In your online success this plays a very important role. This increases your website reliability. Still many of us want the review of a site and then proceed for further dealing. Reviews are made by offering good product/services to your customers and clients not by pressuring them to write.

We all need reviews to help grow our presence on the internet but it can be a touchy subject if you get a bad review or well written review that Yelp removes. I did find Merchant Circle and I am still figuring all of it out but so far have had a good experience. I will have to read the other articles about Merchant Circle to see if there are any tricks I missed. I did try out a blog but it seems Merchant Circle removes my keyword linking and I found that a little bit annoying. But I am still trying to figure it all out. Great post and informative. I even learned a few things about Yelp.

It was just announced that MerchantCircle has been acquired by Reply Media for a modest (by today’s standards) price of $60 million >>

Hello Ann, I would be happy to help you on this. For the very reasons you cite, we had to become experts beyond what MC, Google, or our lawyer had to offer. You can call me direct or respond further here on Gail’s site.

Dealing with this company has been a nightmare. My personal telephone number and old address was listed for a company that has a very similar name as mine and a negative review (I should say it was more malicious than anything) was left, intended for a different company. I faxed over Merchant Circle’s listing removal form and two months later, nothing was done. I spend hours trying to talk to someone on their live chat who said they removed the listing, however, they didn’t remove them all. The listing is still be indexed by Google showing in the search engine results a portion of the very negative comments. Back and forth, round and round we go. Merchant Circle says to contact Google, Google says to contact Merchant Circle. The only way Google will remove a cached URL is if the page returns a 404. Merchant Circle refused to do this and the page shows as being live. Why bother removing anything if you’re not going to remove the entire page! I will be indexed by Google for years to come unless This company does something. Every email I’ve sent them I receive an auto response that does not address my email. Every live person I’ve chatted with has rudely disconnected me. Every fax I’ve sent mysteriously never gets there. I am convinced that Merchant Circle is systematically and methodically forcing people to pay their $35 fee for the privileged of speaking with a live person on the telephone. Who ever heard of such a thing? A company can keep your reputation hostage and there is NO CUSTOMER SERVICE number and they make it very clear that emails may take weeks to be responded to if you are not a “member”. This is the worst company I have ever had the misfortune of dealing with. If I could give them a zero star rating I would. I am contacting an attorney and filing as many complaints against them as I possibly can.

The Merchant Circle review can be very useful to summarize and give conclusion into something. However, there are some who often makes mistakes in doing this.

Merchant circle is a very good idea. I’ve submitted my listing last week.
I’m surprised it’s not yet mainstream for businesses.

Gene,
That’s how its always been. Fake reviews are free ways of advertising and building online credibility.

Majority of reviews online are fake. Some business owners write them better, so worse.
