Ist attracta.com sicher?

I didn't receive the services that were promised to me. I received poor customer service and only partial orders - poor at that. Be careful buying from this site any services, which may not be rendered totally. I spent about 300 dollars on backlink services. They claimed to have given me about 12 backlinks on other sites. Through e-mail I received one backlink from an unknown website that looked like they just started it up in the countryside of internet cyberspace. After many e-mails to customer support, I receive nothing of satisfactory explanation for it. Their connection with customers was poor. I was left feeling cheated and denied. I highly suggest you find another company to work with, so you don't turn into a person lacking 300 bucks in their pocket.

I can explain in detail how they are stealing. The turbo traffic.. this is not real traffic.. (there is one bot who loads the page again.. and again.. and again .. hundreds of times in one minte)... I can provide full details with that. Pro links. ( link s to pages with no page rank.. or not even working pages) Required my money back. Hope they sent. These methods of stealing are so funny and childish.. they make me laugh :) Seriously? Attracta behaviour.. is ..let's say .. funny and childish :)

I have used their tool on sevrals sites for over 2 years and find that they help my ranking a lot. Their free tools work well... somthing rare for free services. I get their rankbuilder paid service a few months ago and was able to get my site from a PR 1 to a PR 3 within 2 weeks.

In addition to questionable tools, "SEO", and sitemap submissions, this company appears to engage in link farming - including its own "business directory" - and customer neglect. The Attracta rep assures you that Attracta "never changes anything on your site" and that customers' robots.txt files were "actually altered by something or someone else, usually through another plugin or application" - implying that customers, not Attracta, damaged the files. Then the rep recants by saying Attracta's "technology only adds one command at the end of your robots.txt file" - quite different from "never changes anything", and quite different from this example robots.txt (links disabled with spaces): ---------------------------------------- sitemap: http :// cdn.attracta.com/sitemap/1970240.xml.gz #Begin Attracta SEO Tools Sitemap. Do not remove sitemap: http :// cdn.attracta.com/sitemap/1970241.xml.gz #End Attracta SEO Tools Sitemap. Do not remove #Begin Attracta SEO Tools Sitemap. Do not remove sitemap: http :// cdn.attracta.com/sitemap/1970240.xml.gz #End Attracta SEO Tools Sitemap. Do not remove ---------------------------------------- found on customer site ***** - nice for attracta.com, but not the customer. Those site map records point to other sitemaps addressed like this: http :// cdn.attracta.com/sitemap/1970240/0.xml.gz which then simply point back to: http :// ***** - effectively creating an unnecessary loop and the very cryptic: http :// ***** - which may be an Attracta "SEO" mirror To simplify: This cross-domain sitemap scheme is bogus. The customers obviously do not own attracta.com so their robots.txt files should not reference it at all. Attracta's own business directory is a link farm, including apparently parked domains - odd behavior for a company which claims to keep your page references current. Attracta claims to be the best at what it claims to do. Actually, you can create and submit your own *correct* site maps to search engines without paying a cent. What if you have the "hundreds of sites" and "millions of pages" which Attracta claims to manage? You will probably need to go elsewhere because such massive throughput is not reflected by the sites in Attracta's "business directory". In fact, you probably would not want to be associated with most of them. Because of these factors, and according to some customer complaints on this scorecard, you should not attempt any transaction with Attracta or provide them with any personal data.

Solo por haber hecho un clic en un botón en el panel de control de Hosgator se metieron sin permiso en mi panel de control y cambiaron la configuración de el archivo robots.txt. Una pagina que estaba en la primera posición de google para una frase clave fue sacada del indice de google. Me causaron un daño terrible. No comprendo dos cosas mas y es como están en un servicio de hosting en el que hosgator dice ser el dueño y tampoco comprendo como evalúa WOT ya que aquí hay muchas quejas de ese servicio y sin embargo Wot les pone el anillo en verde. Otras empresas con mucho menos quejas están en rojo. Es que WOT tiene preferencia por algunas empresas o no ve lo que la gente dice? Attracta es una muy mala empresa que para intentar conseguir clientes no conoce otro método que dañar a personas y empresas que trabajan honestamente en la red. Una verguenza todo ésto

Dear All, I completely understand the frustration you must feel and others in your position have felt the exact same way. I have though come across these issues before with our other users. Following are solutions and explanations to your issues. Robots.txt In problems with the robots.txt file, our users end up finding that their robots.txt file was actually altered by something or someone else, usually through another plugin or application. If you contact our support team we will gladly take a look at your robots.txt to ensure it is optimal. Attracta is designed so that it never changes anything on your site and our technology only adds one command at the end of your robots.txt file pointing the crawler to our Sitemap we create for you. In your case of having created your own site map, Google will look at both your original Sitemap and Attracta’s Sitemap. This has no negative effect on your site. This is actually quite common, and to use an example, here is Amazon.com’s list of over 7 different sitemaps ***** (scroll to bottom). Google themselves actually state: "In most cases, webmasters will benefit from Sitemap submission, and in no case will you be penalized for it." You can find this text on Google webmaster central here: ***** So no, you aren't being hurt or penalized in any way by using our service. Even if you already have a sitemap in place. In fact, if you look at Google's own robots.txt file here: ***** , They too are using multiple sitemaps themselves. Sign-up Issues I also understand how you feel about not having signed up for our services. You likely clicked on our SEO icon in your cPanel. As we are an integrated part of cPanel, your host provided us with your contact email address and your domain information to set up a free account with us. Again, I hope you understand that all of our products work with all web sites, whether they have a current SEO solution or not, and our services do not interfere with any existing SEO efforts with our users. I strongly recommend you contact ***** so that we can help you determine what caused changes to your robots.txt file and help you increase traffic and visibility to your site. We will work with you to ensure that your site’s SEO is operating as effectively as you need it to be. Email Issues The emails that we send are to remind you to submit your Sitemap for any changes that you may have made to your site as well as to perform a free blacklist check. This is important as there are roughly 700,000 sites on these blacklists and most are unaware that they are on these lists and are blocked by search engines. Here are easy instructions to unsubscribe to our emails. Simply click the unsubscribe link in the message and select “none” from the reminder frequency. If you wish to close your account, please email us at the above address. I hope this information was helpful. If you have any further questions or concerns, please feel free to reply to this post or email us at the above address. Leo Leonard Attracta Community Evangelist

Ignored my existing robots.txt creating an inappropriate sitemap. I have only the free service provided through HostGator. Attracta sends me e-mail each week but it does not reflect accurate info. I try to access my profile (using their instructions) to stop the spam-mail but they say I don't have an account with them. Certainly not impressed!!!!

I've been testing this for a couple of months after it was provided for free through my hosting account. I had to submit 1 support question which was never answered, I had a total of 4 sites being monitored by the company and 3 sites only showed 1 page in the sitemap, and the other site showed 837 pages in the sitemap (the site only has 39 pages). The other major issue is that it created a robots.txt which was uploaded to the ftp accounts which disallowed all bots from crawling the sites. The sites that I tested them on were high ranking in Google for their chosen keywords, by the time I finished with this tool, all my sites had suffered. Lastly, it submitted sitemaps automatically to my Google Webmasters accounts, and I have been having some issues ever since. Save your money and just do it for yourself, even if it is provided for free by your webhost, just take the extra time to learn how to do the processes yourself.

I use HostGator, too. Yes, it is free with them, but I upgraded. They save me a lot of time, actually. Many of the complaints that I have seen are just inexperienced webmasters (as we all were). Attracta is not a miracle, but it does help. (I must add that I am new there, though. If I learn anything more I'll update this).
