DO's in the essay writing industry
1- Always do your research before hiring a writer or a company.
2- Google the name or brand by adding 'scam' to the term or name.
3- Always check the credibility of the website that returns results of some company you're looking for. Do not just think upfront that some company is a scam only because it has an unhappy customer. You need to dig deeper.
4- Do a WHOis record check to find out the registrant's address, age of the domain, and hosting server. It will give you a good idea of the company's physical presence. It will also help you verify facts presented on their website.
For instance, you can cross-check their claims (if any) with their domain age: We've been in business since 1999 versus Domain registration data 2008!
5- Try to read carefully the webcopy on the company's website. Does it really look professional? What about the overall look of the webpage?
6- If you're satisfied with these initial research, ALWAYS directly talk to the support via phone. Use a public phone if you don't want to leave your personal number with them. Talk to them, find out if they really sound LIKE a company.
Doing the DON'T's in the essay writing industry
1- If you're doing business with a company for the first time, NEVER reveal your institutional, personal, and other information that may be sensitive. Yes, playing safe is ALWAYS important in life especially over the internet. Personally identifiable information and its security are now becoming global phenomena.
2- Do NOT order a BIG paper, project, or task on the first go. Always start with a smaller paper. This will give you a better idea about the overall business model of that company.
If they are a scam company, their first product will show poor quality in terms of writing, research, formatting, citation style, and so on. Who knows, you may end up receiving a completely plagiarized paper altogether.
However, a legitimate company will provide a product par excellence.
3- DO NOT hesitate to ask the support of the company to keep you in contact with your writer. Knowing your writer PERSONALLY is always good for effective communication and better results.
4- Do NOT hesitate to ask for revisions or any other adjustments that you may find necessary to be done. Remember, you're evaluating the company on the way of becoming their loyal client.
ALWAYS keep in mind that all that glitters is not gold.
If you carry out these steps, I am sure you'll soon understand the differences between a reliable and scam essay writing companies.
