RipOffReport.com (Rip Off Report) complaints can hurt your business

Having a rip off report complaint listed on ripoffreport.com is certainly not good for business. I am sure everyone in business can agree with that.

Why is a RipOffReport.com complaint so damaging? Even if a ripoff report complaint is false or simply full of obvious lies, it can and will hurt your business. Most people (internet users) don’t search for your company directly on rip off report to find complaints filed against you; they normally find these complaints on Google. If you have a complaint about your company on ripoff report and someone searches for your company name or keywords related to your company, chances are they will find the ripoffreport.com complaints ranking very high on search engines like Google.

Even if they don’t read the complaint they still see your name associates with a RIP OFF! Think about it, would you want to buy something from someone who might be a rip off? Or would you buy from a competitor who has no known complaints? I would buy from your competitor, even if they cost more.

I have seen businesses go out of business because of how a negative ripoff report complaint impacted their sales.  If you have a “rip off report” about your company showing up on Google, you had better act fast and aggressively to make it go away.

Let me warn you now: Contacting ripoffreport.com to complain about your complaint can make it worse and even replying to your complaint and telling your side of the story can make it show up higher on search engines. Do not add fuel to the fire. The ripoffreport.com website even says that they never remove complaints even if the original person who posted it asks for it to be removed!

There are many ways to combat a ripoff report complaint.  The most common method is working on creating positive information about your company name and posting it all over the internet on several hundred blogs and websites. These positive entries if create right and on the right websites can push the ripoff report complaint down the search engine results.

There are dozens of companies that offer reputation management services and offer the service to remove ripoff reports from the search engines top results. These companies can charge anywhere from $1500-$9000 depending on how many complaints you have showing up on Google and other Search engines and how difficult the keywords are. Sometimes you can do this type of work on your own if you have hours to spend doing this monthly and some extra cash to spend on SEO techniques.

If you are serious about getting ripoffreport.com complaints off of Googles top results and pushing it back a few pages then you might want to hire a company that specializes in doing just that. One company that we found ReputationArmor.com offers to remove ripoff reports from top search results.  You can contact them for a quote and more information on this service.
