October 03, 2007 - BetterWebBuys.com is gearing up for a busy holiday season as online shoppers want to be able to compare prices from a wide range of merchants -and- find out about coupons and deals -- all at the same site. Better Web Buys allows shoppers to search the prices and availability of millions of items from hundreds of reputable online sellers in a fast, ad-free site.
BetterWebBuys.com features a next-generation price comparison search engine developed to deliver superior online price comparison results in an uncluttered ad-free interface. This new price comparison site has an easy-to-use search platform that enables users to compare the prices of millions of products from hundreds of online merchants and simultaneously be alerted to any coupons and deals associated with their search results.
Better Web Buys also allows users to search within their initial search results as well as to sort and filter search results via specific price points, price range, manufacturer, and merchant with one click. These narrowing options dynamically adjust to only show relevant narrowing possibilities based on search results. The end result is that BetterWebBuys.com gives online shoppers a new level of speed and refinement to find better deals on millions of products without the hassle of ads, banners, or sign-in requirements.
"As a result of our next-generation price comparison search engine, BetterWebBuys.com is able to help online shoppers instantly compare prices and discover online specials. In short, we want to help consumers save both time and money without being harassed with blinking banners, pop up ads, membership requirements, and other annoying features seen in most price comparison sites," said Dr. Fred Mabie, founder of BetterWebBuys.com.
Moreover, in distinction to the common price comparison site, BetterWebBuys.com prescreens merchants and strives to only list nationally known reputable online sellers, rather than the brood of unknown merchants that appear to have the lowest price on typical price compare sites. Dr. Mabie notes, “It is our view that the quality of search results found on many price comparison sites has been negatively impacted by the fact that these sites receive payment (usually on a pay-per-click basis) from merchants listed on their site. This has created a number of problems for users such as unscrupulous merchants who offer what seems to be a fabulous rock-bottom price for products but then harass buyers after a sale (usually under the guise of confirming the purchase) to purchase add-ons and related products.
In addition, many of these sites link to merchants who sell products that do not have a U.S.A. warranty (also called gray market products), which can create massive headaches if warranty service is needed. Moreover, many of the merchants who seem to have the lowest price charge high shipping and “handling” fees that make the final price significantly higher than comparable sellers. Worse, some of these companies swap high ratings with each other and/or hire marketing firms and freelance “reviewers” to submit positive reviews on their company so that the buyer (understandably) assumes that the merchant is a legitimate and ethical seller. All of this creates a new level of significance to the expression caveat emptor (let the buyer beware). In putting together BetterWebBuys.com we have endeavored to only list reputable nationally-known online sellers and these sellers do not pay to be listed on our site. This gives Better Web Buys greater leverage to list sellers with integrity.”
In addition to a commitment to only list prices from quality merchants, BetterWebBuys.com is distinct from other price comparison sites by being 100% ad-free and membership-free. Typically, price comparison sites look for ways to glean personal information from users (such as name and email address) via memberships, gift registries, forums, and the like. This information is then used to track shopping patterns that can be leveraged by the price comparison site (or 3rd party marketing firms) in ways that infringe on individual privacy. By comparison, BetterWebBuys.com does not collect any information from users and thus allows users to search anonymously and with complete privacy.
