Belkin paying 65 cents for good reviews on NewEgg and Amazon?
,----[ Quote ]
| I just contacted Belkin to confirm but this doesn’t look good. A site called
| The Daily Background found evidence that Belkin Bizdev guy, Michael Bayard,
| is paying folks 65 cents to write good things about Belkin routers. Why? I’m
| not sure. I sure didn’t mind Belkin routers in the first place and 65 cents
| isn’t a lot of money for a paragraph. Maybe a flat buck or a USB hub instead?
| Is false praise really that cheap?

Caught AstroTurfing: Bad Belkin Bayard Business..
,----[ Quote ]
| It seems a Belkin employee was caught red-handed looking for people to write
| positive reviews of one of their products. Our own Paul Ferris discusses his
| observations and some of the bigger social issues that 'AstroTurfing'
| exposes.

EU cracks down on fake blogger astroturfing
,----[ Quote ]
| But back to the web, and with sneaky marketing campaigns likely to be more
| effective than upfront marketing campaigns, what is stopping companies from
| simply risking it and continuing existing practices?
