I have long been a webmaster, looking at opportunity and building websites where I can. I have been in the webmaster community for years- and once I'm done with a project I am well aware that I need backlinks to get anywhere in search engine optimization. Thus, I tried out a service called GuruCreation, but quickly found out the results weren't what I expected.
GuruCreation is the name of the service that I had found through a forum I visit. The service had many good replies, so I thought that the owner, Redgsr, would know how to handle my website and get me to the top of Google rankings. At this point I had no idea what I was getting into, and as the saying goes, ignorance is bliss.
I kept my Google Analytics account on close watch- but found something unexpected. It seems that GuruCreation has been using a public article distribution network all along, and decided to charge me an obscene amount of money by passing the network off as theirs! I was enraged at this point, yet I bottled up my concerns and waited for his statistics report.
I was still at least a little positive about the fact that I got an SEO service regardless of the fact that GuruCreation was ripping off their customers. But once I got the report, I saw that instead of the advertised 100,000 backlinks I was promised, I got a little over 150. As time went on, I lost most of those too simply because of the Google Duplicate Content filter.
Outraged, I immediately started sending emails to GuruCreation customers and told them of this scam, and started raising awareness of this SEO gone wrong. Whereas GuruCreation was charging up to $87 for article submission, ArticleMarketer was charging about this much for three months of unlimited submissions.
Once I told everyone, we all decided to boycott his services and spread the word so that no one else fell into his trap. We strongly recommend against using the GuruCreation service simply because it is pretending to be an SEO network, but in reality he is just using someone else's hard work and making a huge profit from it.
In Conclusion
If you can take anything from the advice given, be sure to note that GuruCreation is a scam to get more money out of clients that should go straight to ArticleMarkter- and not through the "middle man" that inflates prices through deception. Do your part- tell everyone you can that Redgsr and GuruCreation are scams!
