How to tell real facts from marketing pitches?
Every week several new tools for web promotion and SEO appear in the market. Most of them can be useless for the average Web Promoter, but a few can bring significant value. Which ones? Hard to tell.
Every new product comes out with an impressive amount of cleverly designed marketing mumbo-jumbo, mixed with technicalities and dubious favourable testimonials. Knowledgeable testing is rarely performed. Objective reviews are hard to find.

I still think the business is feasible, but I would not use a forum, but a Digg-like News Aggregator. I am running one named Business-ideas.com.ar, expecting that the best business ideas will climb to the top. I am also running one for political ideas in Argentina: Ideaspol.com.ar.
The news aggregators have a sophisticated voting system that would allow users to write reports about a company, and the community would vote about quality of the report.
The users develop ‘karma’, a quality related to credibility. Karma is automatically managed by a hidden algorithm in the system.
The pligg module will be modified to improve the quality of the complaints, preventing fraud or manipulation.
The companies will be offered a free or paid service. The paid service will have many more features.
This idea is ready to be launched. Today, Oct. 22-2007, I need a partner bringing U$D 6000, for 40% of the business.
