WHICH IS BEST?

< Back

I would like someone to tell me which of online consumer review website is the best. So far I have not had a problem posting with SITEJABBER, BUT it is ONLY for online businesses. And of course it does a moderation review of a consumer message BEFORE it is posted. YELP does NOT do that but there are NUMEROUS problems with THAT website. It ONLY allows reviews of LOCAL businesses and it apparently has a maximum message policy which it DOES NOT warn you of but simply and abruptly STOPS your texting. Therefore you have to post a VERY LONG message with alot of details, as these review sites CLAIM to like, in SEPERATE sections as "continuations". BUT, you CANNOT post them as "continuations" on the same day but as "updates" of your review so you have to wait until the NEXT day to post each section! As a result, they are NOT in sequential order and the LAST parts of the message are posted EARLIER than the FIRST parts so that when readers figure out they are reading the ending first they have to scroll down to the beginning! On top of all that you CAN'T even contact the "service" online!

CONSUMERAFFAIRS.COM is also a problematic site because it requires "MODERATION" of eacxh submitted post and I have had ALL SEVEN of my reviews "ON HOLD" going back SEVERAL YEARS pending their desision to post! The EXCUSE they gave me when I found out was that one of the business entities I reviewed was "not well-known and so NOT in their database". But THEN HOW do ANY businesses BEGIN to get reviewed? Furthermore, they WITHHELD a posting about a VERY well-known business--- WellsFargo Banking Corporation!

Then there is PISSEDCONSUMER.COM. It has done the SAME thing. And it had unreasonable technical problems, though it "allows" reviews of almost EVERYTHING... including GOVERNMENT!

I really would like to know if there is BETTER out there that is TOTALLY conducive to the consumer's usage. I agree that exaggerated and insulting commentary should be EXCLUDED but there SHOULD NOT be a maximum message length and ALL proper reviews of ALL and ANY entity that serves the public, whether online or in person, should be INCLUDED. I would like to know if anybody else has found this situation using these typw of websites.
