Calling out some adult review sites that give legit review sites a bad name
My Affiliate Manager alerted me to the fact that there are three extremely similar adult cam review sites posting up fake reviews and making false claims against legit cam sites giving them a bad rep and we are one of them.
I present to you exhibit A. The three fake reviews on our site that totally disparage our sites and other similar sites like ours (naked, bongacams, webcamclub, etc.) Every site is either rated very high or very low depending on if they're an affiliate or not. CamWithHer Review: Want the Facts Before You Think About Joining? CamWithHer Review: Straight Answers on Whether This Site Delivers CamWithHer Review: See How It Ranks Against the Top Cam Sites These sites are full of fake comments and fake reviewers. All reviews are almost identical and they're either a 5 score or a 1 score with a horrible rep. They refer to us as "scammers" and that we were "full of nothing but ads" and were "unsafe" among many other things. This is the type of shit affiliates need to get banned for. I contacted the site two days ago requesting removal from the site and heard no response so now it's time to call them out. My next move is to report them to google, their registrar (godaddy), and the cam sites they're affiliated with to try to get this shit removed. :mad: |
Oh boy that's really bad business. Karma will come.

I know how you feel, I wanted to order a new cool belt online today and motherfucking store doesn't have anything bigger than size 80 (cm)... :Oh crap
Joking aside, your story reminds me of my old days when I was messing around with penis enlargement sites and a lot of sites used to do a "top list" where one or two brands were SUPERB and MAGICAL and the other non affiliated ones were named hurtful, hazardous and god knows what.. sucks for you but it's just an (immoral) way of directing traffic. |
Just notified godaddy, google, and pointed AWE here. Hopefully something happens to these douches.

What the fuck!?!?! Everything is not true on the interwebs?

Is this a joke? Good luck getting somebody's opinion taken down from the internet. Google, their hosting, nobody is going to do shit about your whining to them. Just because you don't like what they have to say doesn't mean that they don't have the right to say it.
Be a man & sack the fuck up and fight fire with fire. You sound like a bitch. :2 cents: |
gotta love trolls...moving on...

These guys aren't just reviewing my site and saying they don't like it. They're saying we infect people's computers with viruses, spam, etc. They are going way beyond saying they don't care for our service into down right lying and defamation about our site/company. In your analogy that would be like someone making a blog about Peter Pan Peanut Butter saying it gives you a disease when you eat it. If that peanut butter company found out about that, you think they wouldn't be going after them? Or should they be sitting at home making a review site about how crappy that review was? C'mon. |
They are trashing and slandering many sites. There must be consumer protection laws in Canada or uk against such sites? If they run a site like this it is probably on the surface of what they're up to.

i remember seeing these kind of reviews and review sites on cb products.. they were receiving tons of traffic claiming the product is fake, scam etc
|
It's a serious civil crime, if a civil offense can be called a crime, I've read about business competitors in the hotel and restaurant industries creating fake bad reviews of competitors and posting them on major websites - and when the victim of the fake reviews sued they won very large awards.

Maybe, this is just a can of worms but Canada and the UK have lesser standards of burden with regard to criminal defamation -- consult a lawyer in those jurisdictions. Freedom of speech has nothing to do with defamation -- your mouth may have freedom of speech to scream fire in a crowded theater but your body can be fined or incarcerated. |
C & D from a lawyer is probably your best/only hope... :2 cents:

If JIF starting slamming SKIPPY blatantly in order to steal customers via TV commercials, do you think SKIPPY wouldn't have a right to do something? I'm not saying in this case anything should be done....cause it shouldn't. But hey OP if it really bothers you, hire a hacker to throw down their server. =) Sometimes karma needs a little help. |
But what kind of traffic do these shitty review sites get in the first place? You're stressing about a few hits at most? Don't sweat the small stuff - and it's all small stuff.
Know how many BAD reviews my paysites get? From "legit" review sites? Know how many sales I get ANYWAY from those same review sites? Movies that get shitty reviews still gross over $100 million. Reviews mean nothing. It's traffic, that's all it is. |

I happen to like ALL peanut butter, this is just for the sake of argument. Also, I did some research and this bloke is doing nothing more than keyword slamming the SEs. He has a bazillion sites all interlinking bullshit with random key word stuffing. I should have looked a bit before opening my pie hole. Sorry to OP. I now see OP's point. I still, however wonder what avenues they would have in order to correct it. I did send off an email to the site operator's CONTACT ME directing them to this thread suggesting that they take it down. It most likely will fall upon deaf ears. Has OP tried contacting the site directly? Any response? Does OP have anything that would make them think that this is an affiliate that was banned or had hatred towards the company? Maybe that would provide some clues. I found about 15 domains, all bullshit nonsensical crap interlinking between sites but all of the domains are privacy protected. Good luck to OP. Again, my apologies for calling you a bitch. :thumbsup |

He puts iFriends up there as one of the better cam sites. His Clickcash ID is spicedmartini Maybe go with that and you can narrow down which cunt is doing this to you. |
Quote:
Use that iFriends (ClickCash) ID I sent you and get a hold of them. If they are a big enough affiliate and are threatened to have their earnings taken away? The blog owner will delete that shit quick. iFriends had 5 Twitter accounts completely shut down inside of 24 hours that were misrepresenting my girls. This was literally less than a week ago. Go with the ClickCash route. :2 cents: |

Seems to be the best advice, but if this guy is not degrading ifriends I could see them saying, it's not their fight. Why would they want to get into the middle of it, when it has nothing to do with them? :2 cents: |
Quote:
You would NOT want to face the legal team that iFriends has to bring to the table. Trust me. At the same time, they do not want to introduce themselves into a potential lawsuit nor be respondents in one... which they would more or less have to be if a lawsuit was brought up. If nothing else, they maybe could help them out. iFriends has very little to worry about as far as competition against OP goes. Many of his girls work for them too, I am sure. Most cam girls work multiple sites. Out of sight, out of mind. iFriends kicks ass. |
every single company have bad reviews on internet. it is bitch playground and you suck

It's not just a fake bad review, it's a defamatory one, in which just using our site's name to generate traffic for the other sites he's affiliated with. He's not linking back to us and the other sites he's slandering, he's only put links up for the sites he is affiliated with. And anyway who would click on a link to us after the "reviewer"says we are scammers, dangerous and we have malware? |
I think a person with an average IQ can tell that the review site is at the least biased.
IMO the average CAM paying member in not considered an average IQ person or he will end up with an escort (or a wife) Good luck clearing your site's reputation |

Anyhow, here's what I got from the affiliate manager at AWE. I'm not quite sure what exactly will come of it but at least they're contacting the affiliate about it...

I think your site is kinda lame.

It looks fake? What does that mean? Our girls are too hot to be real? Believe me, they're real. We don't have any bots.

My point about traffic meant the site's traffic might be so tiny that the actual 'damage' to you could be minimal. |
Emailed clickcash and directed them here as well.
|
I've seen this going on for over 10 years, They did it with my site and the better the site you had the worse the rating. Of course the top 3 were the ones who made the site.
There are lots of ways to deal with this shit and this is not one. |
|
what is untrue about the reviews? please detail and counterpoint.
|
Quote:
here is answer in simple words., you contact majority review sites and ask them to review your site, as many as you can, in a hope that those bad review sites will go down in serps/. nothing else you can do if they are outside us/their servers are outside us , its on internet. |

Everytime I ever here somebody bashing iFriends/ClickCash it makes me laugh. iFriends/ClickCash is one of, if not THE most straight forward affiliate programs from the old school days that is still alive and thriving. That is not a coincidence. :2 cents: |
