Who Can You Trust?
Featured Publication It's all so new.   The internet, in all its glory, is growing in leaps and bounds, and bringing with it unprecedented opportunity.   Opportunity for the buyer.   Opportunity for the seller.   But with new companies sprouting every day on the web, how do you know who is going to be there tomorrow?
Along with opportunity comes responsibility.   But not everyone understands this.   So if we are to be wary of giving our money away without proper consideration, what advice should we heed in making purchase decisions in the hectic online world of the internet?   Even a broken clock gives the right time twice a day.   So, first of all, don't rely on advertising.
Secondly, we can choose to deal with companies which have been established for some time (in internet terms, a year is quite a while).   Also, name brand companies are perhaps the best way to eliminate second guessing, by choosing to deal with household name brands rather than unknowns.   Names which are big in the news come to mind.
