While I can't say for the others, we do go thru our database of vendors for our Vendor Reviews at HauntersDigest.com to verify they are in business and still active periodically. If you do see a vendor that is not in business anymore and we've missed it, then drop us a note and we verify it. If it's true, then we will update or remove the profile to keep the database as accurate as possible. When we add vendors, we do what we can to verify the business first. When we are at the Tradeshows, we directly meet the owners at the show to introduce them to their profiles if they didn't already know about them in order for them to be able to submit product news and service updates. It also provides them with a chance to see how the buyers in the industry view their company, Good or Bad. When we post news about the vendor to HauntersDigest.com, it's also listed directly on their vendor profile so you can quickly and easily see what they have been doing recently in the industry. You can see an example of this with TicketLeap's Vendor Profile. We even take the photos those vendors booths we find at tradeshows so you can see them or to match the products to the vendor. You can see an example of this with Graftobian Make-Up Co..
If you know of a vendor that isn't listed, then we welcome you to submit them. We will verify the company and post them to the site if it's a valid company. We found that those vendors that are known for their great service and products have enjoyed the free advertising of their past performance. It helps encourage new sales with new haunters to the industry. This is why we integrate our Vendor Reviews with our Haunt Resource Database. We've even made our reviews easy to find inside our Mobile App, so if your on a tradeshow floor and in front of a vendor's booth, you can look them up before purchasing with them. This was a feature that several of our readers that were tradeshow attendees walked up to our booth and commented on how helpful it has been for them when making purchase decisions at the shows.
The only way to help new and veteran haunters in the industry, is by providing them with the experience and knowledge of the other haunters and know who's a great haunt vendor and who's not based on their past experiences dealing with a vendor. That's the point of the vendors reviews. To help others from getting burned by vendors that fail to deliver on time (or at all), build subpar products, and/or have terrible customer service if you do have problems with their products or services. If everyone starts posting their experiences (good or bad) and rate the vendors they've done business with, it can help to push those subpar vendors either out of business when they can't take advantage of those that didn't know or it will force them to address their problems and fix them forcing them to become a better vendor. Everyone loves great vendors and we do what we can to reward those vendors that offer great products and services that are recommended by their customers to our readers!
If there is Keegans HauntCompanyReviews.com, our HauntersDigest.com Vendor Reviews, and soon Larry's review profiles, then each one of them helps to cut down the chance of a haunter being burned down more if they check them out first before purchasing. While I agree it's up to the review sites to make sure their content is as fresh and reliable as possible, as we try to do at HauntersDigest.com, it's going to also be up to the people who use them to help Keegan, Larry, and myself with as accurate data as possible by sharing their experience and ratings on those vendors listed.
