“3 months together”

Kert L.

I've been ordering promotion services for my beauty salon on this website for 3 months now. Before that I had tried working with other websites, such as JD. So far everything suits me perfectly. We'll see what the future brings.

“Need a 0 star option!”

I discovered a profile of my business on nicelocal. There were inaccuracies and the reviews lifted from other sources had an erroneous rating. I attempted to claim my profile to correct or delete it. But a code by phone was required which nicelocal claimed they left for me. But I do NOT use a phone number for my business and have no idea who they called. Certainly not me! I brought this to their attention and they responded again that I needed the code they phoned me. Totally unprofessional: disregard for accuracy and despicable customer service.

They seeded a 'review' site with stale data scraped from google, put up a pretty UI with a bunch of buttons that don't work and broken features. They don't really offer any info that isn't already on Google etc but hey they're on top of their SEO game

This is a classic impersonation scam, all window dressing no substance, the brand is called "Nicelocal" but there's obviously nothing 'nice' or 'local' about it, it's the same issue with the Yelp business model, they'll never explicitly say "pay to show/hide reviews" they just have some arcane 'advanced algorithm' that decides to show/hide reviews randomly and force businesses to pay for extra consulting/features for to manage 'online reputation success' or whatever

Don't support businesses like these and i'd be careful giving them money or data

Tip for consumers:
Don't. The online review ecosystem is a mess we don't need another player skimming off a quick buck

Write random reviews and ratings just to fill webspace without any knowledge of what is being reviewed. It seems quite useless and detrimental this way.

In my opinion it's a useful service if you need to find reviews or information about any organization. Nicelocal always provides information that's as accurate and detailed as possible.

This platform picks and chooses the information they copy from google, to set up unwarranted profiles and make it appear as though they have users prescribing to their site.

Nice local I didn't give u permission to steal my business it called infringement on my Intellectual property asset. Aka trademark. Aka u don't own copyrights my photos. I can sue u. Google gets permission to list me. I pay money be listed where I choose then they have me sign papers say what they can post. I control listing. Ur practice is illegal. Ur scammers. Of course u list the business not accurate, so I can contact u and u can get rest of my info then identity theft me? Called scamming. Or I pay u to list correct? It money scam hijacking holding my business at ransom until I pay? U just have half my page correct. I know trick. Then u expect me buy package to fix errors? U hijacked my business? The good reviews here about nice local are just your team posting from themselves to counter the true reviews that are bad yet accurate reviews? U have 24 hours to remove my listing or I'm calling police. FBI. Better business. Lawyers. Etc. Did I mention I work in law asides owning business. U will need to ask permission to steal businesses profiles it illegal what ur doing. U can't do that. In usa u must get permission otherwise it's called stealing my intellectual property asset. So no ur not new Google search engine ur the scammers who wish u were a real business. Stop stealing our business info then adding info n hours that incorrect then playing dumb saying we can create business account log in. U mean u installed malware so I can add my info u can steal more info? Wow. I'm coming at u with civil suit so u might stop while ur ahead. Thanks.

As a SMB owner, I have been targeted by nicelocal.com shady attempts to review my commerce with fake reviews or try to steal traffic by using my name. But what is really worst with nicelocal.com is that anyone can leave a negative review without any proof. Mine was targeted with a random 3 stars on 5. But who is it? What is the order number? If this service was legit as they claim, they should be able to have proof of their reviews but it's not the case. Nicelocal.com/Nicelocal.ca/Nicelocal.co.uk etc can't provide these basic informations: customer name, customer order number. So how can their service be legit? It's just pure scam.

Edit following their answer: You guys are a review website, this is not the role of my business to check that your supposed reviews are good or false. You want to make a review website then where are Google headquarters reviews? Where are Amazon headquarters reviews? Where are Microsoft headquarters reviews? Apple? And don't tell me you don't know where are the informations. You know exactly that you're damaging SMB reputations and all your business activities are only about stealing other work, publish fake reviews then ask people to edit reviews by creating an account to enhance your database in the most unethical way.
Same for your attempts to steal traffic from SMB, seriously I recommend everyone thinking about their service to search "nicelocal scam" on Google before making any business with them.

/!\ SMB owners don't be fooled by these guys there are just making a lead generation website in disguise to resell you email adresses later on.

If you suspect that a review is not real, you can respond to this review on behalf of the business. In your response, we recommend asking the author to clarify the details of their visit to you, such as what service was provided or which employee provided it. Feel free to ask in detail. This will help you better understand the situation and respond properly, or, perhaps, to determine that there was never any such customer
