Local
Trader
is
a membership network of International certified and
monitored websites which adhere to strict
privacy and safe shopping practices. The
certificate is reassuring and makes visitors feel
comfortable with using a Local Trader certified and
ongoingly monitored website, which will also result
in increased sales for LocalTrader
members.
There
are many horror stories about unscrupulous online
traders. Internet consumers are entitled to trust
and reliability when placing an online order for
goods or services and it is our chief objective to
provide a means for regulation of the Internet
community, to promote trust between users and
certified traders.
We
believe governmental regulation of the Internet is
undesirable, impractical, and unnecessary. Instead,
our Local Trader
Certification
Award Program provides this means for regulation of
the Internet community. Such program is not unlike
the FEEDBACK program implemented by Ebay™ to
keep unscrupulous scammers and rogue traders
away.
We
offer neutral, trusted, third party verification of
website privacy and safe shopping practices,
including complaint mediation, to insure a quality
and safe experience for every visitor.
All
member sites are regularly spidered by the Local
Trader
bot
to verify that strict policies remain adhered to.
Spidered website data is also entered into the
Local Trader
Directory,
a search engine scheduled for launch in the fall
(autumn) of 2009.
