LowDown.News Post Removal Ripoff

We recently received an application for Post Almost Anything Reputation Improvement Services (PAARIS) from someone whose information was listed on our Foul Speakers search engine (https://foulspeakers.com) as well as a website we do not own. As part of the screening process we though the potential client might be better served via one of the third party reputation management companies that Foul Speakers works with from time to time. Such companies have arrangements with multiple sites including Foul Speakers and a lot of the sites that the Foul Speakers bot crawls. Since we have a special arrangement with reputation management companies in which customers seeking just removals from Foul Speakers should be able to get that done for less that a PAARIS Package we hoped that they might be able to remove both posts for less than the price of PAARIS. We offer those companies less because those removals do not include any additional services and such companies often provide services for creating positive articles about people, but we are not sure if their service charges are more. We thought the potential client might be able to save money if they used the third party service to remove posts from both sites. We were wrong because according to our reputation management partner they were quoted a price of $2,500 by the organization that runs LowDown.News.

At that price we were forced to recommend that the potential client use PAARIS Silver (https://postalmostanything.com/paaris/silver) to remove the content on Foul Speakers. Our recommendation was based on the fact that at the time PAARIS Silver was on sale for just $249.99 and even if it were not on sale the full retail price of $499.99 is still far less than the outrageous amount charged by LowDown.News. If one must choose between removing content from Foul Speakers and removing it from LowDown.News they save $2,000 by choosing PAARIS Silver as a their Foul Speakers removal option. That price difference is enough that most people would not consider removing a post from LowDown.News at all. It also appears that Foul Speakers outranks LowDown.News on search engines most of the time, so it makes far more sense to get rid of the higher ranking result.

LowDown.News also does not appear to offer any services in addition to removing the post like PAARIS does. All PAARIS Packages include the features of PAARIS Bronze (https://postalmostanything.com/paaris/bronze) with includes an in depth Damage Assessment and most importantly a Recovery Plan. The Recovery Plan is an in depth guide catered to each customer in which we tell them what we would do to keep sites like LowDown.News from holding prominent search engine rankings for their names. We tell customers how to optimize their current online assets and how to acquire new assets so that negative results are pushed down. In time a PAARIS client should see their top results dominated by positive assets that they themselves control. Most PAARIS clients have few online assets which is why sites like LowDown.News are able to dominate their search results, but those clients also do not know what they need to do to dominate the results themselves. Their personalized Recovery Plan tells them how anyone with no web development skills whatsoever can create a fleet of online assets optimized to make themselves look good.

When we first launched PAARIS we knew that we would need to set the price high to lower demand while we worked on other things. We also realized that we have marketable skills that a lot of people do not have when it comes to search engine optimization (SEO). We felt that if we were to charge the fees we do that we owed it to the customer to do some real work. Real work that anyone would benefit from whether or not what drove them to us was a negative article on a site of ours. That is what PAARIS Bronze is. It is a reputation management service for anyone regardless of where negative content about them is found. Unfortunately, a lot of potential PAARIS clients do not seem to take the time to notice that and probably think this Recovery Plan is nothing more than giving them a list of negative articles and telling them to get rid of them, but that is just the Damage Assessment. In many cases PAARIS clients no longer have any negative search results by the time they receive their Recovery Plan. At that point the plan is more of a prophylactic guide so that the next time a negative article pops up they will already hold the high ground on Google and can rebut the article from a position of strength.
