Directory of Marketers
When searching through the Internet for a directory of marketers you
have
to be especially careful for conflicts of interest. Many marketing
directories promote the material of only the marketers who pay a
commission to be included in the directory. Others are excluded or
downplayed regardless of their skills or background. Check a directory of
marketers to see if the materials of only certain ones are for sale. The
best directory of marketers is one that has unbiased reviews and real
information on the companies or individuals.
Some of these allow public messages to be posted, but these too can be
highly biased if they moderate the messages to prevent negative ones or
only approve positive messages for certain marketers. Of course moderating
message posts can prevent foul language or other types of Spam ads from
being entered, but you can test this by going to some directory of
marketers who allow message posts and post one good and one bad message
about a marketer you're familiar with and see if both appear later.
Again, the best rule when browsing through a directory of marketers is
to
check for conflicts of interest, see if many of the glowing reviews posted
by people are written in the same language, pointing to "site loading"
which is one person posting dozens of complimentary posts under different
names to promote a person or interest. Some show the IP address of the
poster and you can see if it's the same person spamming messages that way
as well. A directory of marketers can be a powerful research tool, but be
sure to do your homework and see if the directory has real information
and not just a message board to promote certain people with phony
testimonials or posts.
