Feb. 4, 2009 - PRLog -- My name is Todd Hebert and I am the owner of http://www.smartwebshopper.org  . Smart web Shopper is an internet shopping portal of verified trusted websites to shop at. We have checked thee sites for your safety.
  Shopping on the internet is quickly becoming the norm. In fact many of us have forgotten what it is like to shop any other way. We have grown so accustomed to the ease of shopping online in the comfort of our own chair. But how do we know it is safe?
  Many people will tell you that if there is a little lock at the bottom when you checkout that the sit is safe. This is absolutely true. However this does not tell you that the company is a good company to deal with. It also does not guarantee you will receive your products when you order them.
  There are some common things you can look for when shopping online to ensure your safety. The first and foremost is does the company list a telephone number to call for customer service? If there is no telephone then this throws up a huge red flag in my book. What if I had a problem with my product? What if it didn't show up? what if I had a question before I order?
  The next question is do they list an address? Another very important question to ask yourself . Where are my products coming from?
  These are just a few questions in a list of many. This is why we have created Smart Web Shopper. Through our portal we list sites only after they have been inspected and meet our quality guidelines. Our sites have been deemed safe and trusted so you feel safe when purchasing from them. Many times when we look at a site we will actually order from them so we can see what our experience is. This gives us first hand knowledge of the entire process that you the customer will go through. This is very important. We will also call customer service a few times to see if we get the same person or not. By doing this we can determine if it is an actual business or a one man operation. We also ask such questions such as what is your return policy, what year were you established? Etc. We take what we have learned and do a background check to see if the story they give us matches the records. We do all of these things so you do not have to. If you had to go through all of this you might as well get in your car and go shopping at the mall.
 So with all of that said if your are ready to shop SAFELY. Then log on to http://www.smartwebshopper.org today.
