Business continues to grow on the Internet at a rapid pace. There is an abundance of products and services to be enjoyed, and one can find most anything on the WWW. Unfortunately being a new frontier, there are
also many dangers and scam artists who would rob you of your pleasant
experiences. As a result you are bound to come across some inconsiderate
service, a product of poor quality or worse still some unscrupulous business
practices.
What steps can you take in preventing this from
happening and how can you warn others. Are there places on the Internet that
you can go to and file a complaint? Yes. Just as with offline businesses
you can file a complaint with the Better Business Bureau. Do this online
at: http://www.bbb.org/ Also there is
the BBBonline organization at: http://www.BBBonline.org
Another site developed with the sole purpose of
good relations and business ethics between corporations and consumers on the
Internet is the Netcheck Commerce Bureau. This agency has 700 corporate
members in about 80 countries. One can visit Netcheck's site and register
consumer complaints about anything from unsolicited e-mail to copyright
disputes. Also a place is provided where you can compliment a company. You
can visit the site at:http://www.netcheck.com
I would recommend that you also visit the
Consumer sites where you can go to check and report on the services and
products of Internet businesses. Individuals can post their experiences
warning others of poor service or scams. There you can read the
comments of others as well, thereby minimizing the chances of falling victim
to shady practices, false promises or poor quality products. Some of
the sites offering such services are as follows: http://www.epinions.com/
By visiting these sites before your business
ventures, you may be able to avoid some of the snares set by unscrupulous
persons. Remember there are many good businesses and wonderful opportunities
to explore. With a little caution your experiences on the World Wide Web can
be both stimulating and prosperous.
