How Does Your Business Measure Up?

Many online stores and auction sites today give site visitors the option to provide feedback about their purchases, the sellers they bought from, and the items they purchased. But one new website is devoted solely to letting consumers rate brands and customer services they received, and it doesn't have to relate to a specific purchase.

Measuredup is a popular website where consumers can post feedback and reviews about their experiences with product brands or customer service they received from any company, anywhere, large or small. The website is free, easy to navigate, and fun to read and use. Thousands of people - including both consumers and business owners - visit the site every day.

Site visitors can post positive, neutral, or negative reviews and enter specific comments as well as ratings. Consumers can suggest problem resolutions to other consumers or businesses; get advice; resolve complaints; ask and answer questions; or make recommendations for other site visitors. Companies can answer questions from customers; solve problems customers are having; target customers or specific groups; offer promotional coupons; or work to build their reputations.

Writing a review is simple and fast, and you can write one anonymously and post pictures if you'd like. Reviews are categorized and indexed on the site so other visitors can find it easily. After reviews are approved by the staff at MeasuredUp, they may be included in search engine indexes so consumers can find them when doing searches on particular businesses or products.

Businesses and corporations that value customers and care about what they think will appreciate MeasuredUp because it will help them remain connected to customers so they can see what people think of their services and products. Consumers value the site because it gives them access to other people's experiences and gives them a way to let companies know when they are happy or unhappy with their experiences.

If companies choose to abide by the MeasuredUp pledge, they are letting people know that they find it of utmost importance to provide customers with a positive experience. Companies that abide by the MeasuredUp pledge can display the badge on their website or in their physical offices.
