I feel sorry for the providers in this forum. They offer services that mostly you cannot find anywhere else at prices that astound me. Great effective services for peanuts. And every sales thread is littered with free review requests.

Being able to read this great forum is free. But thats not enough people want free services done as well. Is this digitalpoint. If saving money for services that could be used to make income is asking too much you dont belong in business. Can you ask your mechanic for free services or get your oil changed for free. So why would you have the gall to ask here.

This is the harvard of internet marketing. Thank you blackhatworld providers and contributors. Im on the first page of google finally able to quit my job. It cost me $130 total. $20 for bookmarking. $50 for my site created by designer. $40 for edu links. $20 domain and hosting. If you disagree im sorry for you because you dont understand the value of quality services.
 
Lol how funny! We are fresh out of reviews i can offer discount!
 
You have to agree though that it is strange. There is almost no competition elsewhere and yet more services than not are dirt cheap. I just bought food for some hundreds and it'll be all gone in a week. How are the service providers actually earning anything? I will never even think of offering a tenth of some cool deal here for less than $500 or even 1000. Otherwise it'd just be slave labor.

I've never done anything for free or discounted (except for charity) and because of that I never ask anything for nothing. As such, my advice is to simply ignore similar requests as they will never disappear.
 
Thank you, I agree.

ps. Being on first page of google with one site will finally let you quit your job?

That must be a hell of a profitable niche ??
 
Reviews are useful sometimes. There is some clown selling "30,000 backlinks", but he doesn't even know how many are dofollow. I'd rather wait for a review and see how many are good instead of wasting money on junk
 
f you disagree im sorry for you because you dont understand the value of quality services.

you assume every service posted in there is 'quality'

there have been some that received bad reviews, exposing the lack of quality and saving others from spending their money.

I THINK, the OP should include right in the original post..the details about review copies- IF ANY, of course.
so the thread doesn't get littered with 'GIMME FREE PLEASE'
 
Reviews are useful as it will allow people to be more assured of your service. I am however disappointed with people who request reviews on almost any thread that comes out. They never ever seem to buy and yet shamelessly say that they will order in the future.

My suggestion to service providers who are starting up would be to provide reviews only for those who have some Itrader buyer points. At least they have spent money somewhere and are not just freeloaders.

Agreed. That's why I like when people give reviews to VIPs and not to any average newbie leech.
 
I partially agree. When someone starts a new service, then free reviews should be given, but only to highly reputable members. I would say 5 reviews at most. That is just to establish a good business reputation and itrader for the person offering services.
 
Thank you, I agree.

Flippa is a great site to get ideas. Alot of inspiration in there.
 
I think that this option should be avalable just to Junior VIP or other high ranked members. And members who ask to get free review should get warning or something like that. Because totally destroy that function isn't good idea. I like to get some more information from people, not the seller.
 
fuck it, free reviews for everyone. pay only if you want.

Heck yeah! For real though it is annoying when the free reviews have clearly been identified and then you see about 10 more village idiots ask for a free review. Wake the hell up! :proud:
