Internet Niche Marketing

Online auction marketer Terry Gibbs has stated that he believes SaleHoo is a scam, but after looking much closer into his review, it has become obvious that there is something sinister at play here. Terry is profiteering from his biased review by directing his readers to purchase from him instead.

Through the use of a large banner advertisement on his salehoo sucks review site, Terry is actually promoting his own product through writing a defamatory and biased review of his competitor salehoo.

You cannot even post a comment on his forum. It is obviously completely faked as any true forum can be posted to, yet even after months of trying, it is not possible to post a comment.

Terry gives some very weak evidence that SaleHoo is a scam by stating that not all of SaleHoo’s deals are bargains. SaleHoo does not control the suppliers in its directory and also the prices that Terry used as examples were not accurate at the date of his review. The prices offered by SaleHoo’s wholesalers were actually lower than Terry claimed.

The reader of this article should also be aware that none of the AuctionXFactor product, produced by SaleHoo was plagiarized, or paraphrased from any of Terry Gibb’s works. Yet Terry made it look as though that was the case.

Terry tells people that SaleHoo is a scam in order to sell more of his own products. The word scam should only be used in extreme circumstances. Not simply when you don’t like one of your competitors products (as Terry Gibbs has done). He has tainted his own reputation among people who know better of his review.

The truth is SaleHoo is not a scam. I’ve logged into their members area and there are literally thousands of wholesale suppliers to choose from. And there are a lot of members who have been there long term who post on the forums and talk to each other about various things to do with buying and selling wholesale products.

The internet usually doesn’t forget this kind of thing and that is unfortunate in this type of case where the innocent party, SaleHoo, gets unfairly negatively affected by the vendetta of one man.

SaleHoo has written their own reply to Terry’s review. It is difficult for some people to find on the internet as sensationalist stories such as the one told by Terry tend to rise higher in the search engines.
