In one of my previous posts i mentioned about how hedir reviews are helping people looking for products/services online. I also mentioned about unionworkerscredit.com as an example. Well, it seems this site is really getting the heat from hedir reviewers. Search for ‘unionworkerscredit’ in Google or Yahoo , and you arrive in hedir review page for this site. I have been getting emails from people asking me about the services!
Now, i really do not have any idea about the services provided by these people. Initially i kept on replying the emails stating this fact, now i simply delete the mails!
While choosing any product /service on web, it is a good idea to find as much about it as possible. Communities like hedir are a great help in this regard. But at the same time any potential customer/client of a product/service also has to keep in mind about the dangers of solely relying on online feedbacks.
People should rely on facts/figures, not on heresay. It is to this end that any exisitng customer/client can help by providing the necessary figures and the company/site/organization in question can also do the same to counteract any false claims.
Hedir should be a platform where all the parties involved should get equal chance to dish out the truth !

Just to change my mood i changed the hedir homepage 
Just kidding - actually i really want to see how things develop after implementing a new home page for hedir. Now we have brought the review center to the top (an effort to put more focus on it) . I really hope this thing takes off and more visitors can participate .
Here’s good luck wish on myself and the entire hedir team.

It gave me great pleasure to announce a reward of $10,000 for our moderators when hedir beats digg.com in terms of traffic. We will use alexa traffic ranking to determine this. If Hedir is gaining popularity and some fame, then the credit goes to these people ( of course i am not forgetting the contributions from some other members like winterfrost, CTPhil, francesco… to name a few) . I have already made an announcement in the hedir forums regarding this .

Its happening …
Hedir reviews are helping online clients/customers .
Check this out:
unionworkerscredit
The first result is the link to review on unionworkerscredit.com
I got 20 mails thanking hedir for the feedback on the site. All of them were/are potential clients to unionworkerscredit.
That compelled me to get back to the review on unionworkerscredit on hedir.
Now, i dont know how these people (who mailed me) took decisions based on the feedback available on this thread http://www.hedir.com/groupthink/about11339.html , as most of the reviews were technical in nature and were about the site only, not about the organization behind it.
That set me thinking - it would be a good idea to get real customers/clients feedback . After all, good website does not equal good product/service.
Maybe we can segregate the type of review into two sections - 1. site review , 2. customer/client feedbacks.
I can forsee the huge impact such a feedback system from hedir will have on the online businesses.
