Knowing which sites are trustworthy is very important to anyone who works online. After a while you begin to develop some touchstones to apply when deciding whether a site is legitimate and worthy of your trust.
I have had very few problems with purchases made online, but it can happen to you and me both.
Here are five things to look for in a site:
1) VIRTUAL DOMAIN NAME-- Does the site have a virtual Domain name like this ?
Well, I don't know where your thinking is, but I am definitely going with the identifiable virtual address here as an indicator that they are legitimate.
They at least thought enough about their business to invest a few dollars in a name.
2) TESTIMONIALS-- Are there any good testimonials of others who have done business with them ? Can they be contacted ?
If there are, chances are you are on the right track to having a good experience with them yourself.
3) HOW LONG ONLINE-- How long has the site been online ? This may take a little researching on your part, but it may well be worth it to know how long this business has been making it's offer for products, software andor services.
An easy way to verify how long the domain name has been registered is simply to a search at:
You will find lots of information including who owns the domain name, their address Babe Ruth Womens Jersey , who hosts the domain name, and when it was registered.
It can give you some useful information about the genuine nature of the site.
4) CONTACT INFORMATION-- Can you contact the webmaster either by phone, fax and or email.
Personally, I like dealing with those that give you all of the above information. There is something comforting to me that I can call or e-mail the site manager if something goes wrong with my purchase.
5) CREDENTIALS-- There are several "credentialing" sites online. There intention is to offer some validity to the site by tracking complaints from former users.
If the site does offer such a service, by all means check out what others have said about their experience with the business.
A note: Not all legitimate businesses offer such a "seal of approval". I assume because there is usually a cost involved Derek Jeter Womens Jersey , or they just don't feel that they need it.
While this article is not all-inclusive, it is intended to give you a "heads-up" when surfing to unknown areas of the internet and experiencing dealing with new sites that you discover.

Networking, schmoozing, making connections. Call it what you want, it's something that is a necessity if you want to do business today. Many of us either love it or hate it. Personally, I wasn't too fond of it in the past. Although I'm a outgoing person Dellin Betances Authentic Jersey , I just hated starting conversations with people I had no idea what to say to. Oh yes, my friends reading this will laugh out loud. "Yeah right, Simone, shy? She can talk anyone under the table!" Ha ha, very funny Sonny Gray Authentic Jersey , but that is beside the point. Many folks, even extroverts, avoid networking for the simple fact that they don't want to talk to strangers. Some feel that they don't have anything to offer, or don't feel like going to a pick up joint disguised as a networking event. Yeah, you know the ones. I actually went to one last week and I was asking where the 'networking' was as I looked at the dance floor full of executives doing the electric slide (I kid you not! The electric slide!) I thought Aroldis Chapman Authentic Jersey , "Darn! Foiled again!" Hey, we all love to have fun, but if it's a party, just say it's a party! Come on!
So, you see why I got fed up and started my own event C.C. Sabathia Authentic Jersey , "Give 'N Take Network": ? There's still hope for us can make networking work if we really think about the benefits and plan for a successful outcome.
The things that can arise from networking are amazing. Most of my best contacts are people I met at business conferences and networking events. I actually make it a point to tell my clients to schedule in at least two networking events a month that target their audiences. Being seen and heard will increase your chances of success! Not only is networking good for business, but also for your personal life!
