Wholesalecentral.com Offers Official Member Seal

Wholesalecentral.com, the Interenet's leading directory of wholesale suppliers, is now offering an official Member Seal that members can proudly display on their Web sites.

"One of the biggest concerns that buyers have when they use the Internet to search for product sources is how reputable those sources are," reports Scott Sumner, president of Wholesalecentral.com's parent company, Sumner Communications. "Anyone can post a Web site on the Internet, and buyers often have no way of knowing how established and trustworthy the business is."

The Wholesalecentral.com member seal demonstrates to buyers that the wholesaler has been approved by the oldest, largest and most trusted wholesale-only directory and marketplace on the Internet. Wholesalecentral.com takes many measures to ensure quality listings that most other directories and search engines don't. Every company listed in the directory is personally reviewed by an expert on the Wholesalecentral.com staff. After being accepted into the directory each company continues to be reviewed on a regular basis. Every site must be functioning and a verified wholesaler.

Wholesalecentral.com charges a fee to be listed, and they don't supplement their directory with any unapproved Web sites - this action alone deters fly-by-night companies that aren't serious or established enough to invest in properly marketing their companies.

Wholesalecentral.com takes complaints very seriously. Because of its rigorous entry qualifications, complaints don't happen often. When they do, buyer complaints are investigated, and companies found to be disreputable are simply removed.

To complement the Member Seal, Wholesalecentral.com is also offering an official "Enter Store" button for members using the wholesale storefront system included with their membership. The storefront, developed by Wholesalecentral.com, utilizes state of the art security, and buyers can feel safe shopping in a Wholesalecentral.com-powered store.

"Recently, our members have been requesting an official Member Seal because they know it will instill confidence in their buyers. Many have even created their own messages stating that they are Wholesalecentral.com members," said Sumner. "Our new Seals meet the need for a standardized official Seal which can be clicked to verify membership status."

Clicking the seal on a member site opens a window displaying the company name and the seller's Web address. If that matches the site user are visiting, they confirm they are shopping on a verified member site.
