This article was created via a paid editing request on elance.com. The article is well presented, having been puffed up to hide the subject's lack of notability. All of the sources given but one are press releases, which do not count as independent, reliable sources. The other source doesn't provide in-depth coverage and ranks the company at #997. None of the awards given are notable enough in themselves to show notability of the company. ThemFromSpace 15:28, 18 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete A considerable part of the article wasn't about the company but about online marketing in general, and about consumer protection - both of them notable subjects. The company itself, however, shows no indication of notability. A short profile on the inc.com website is not enough. --bonadea contributions talk 08:22, 19 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
