Ask HN: Competitor keeps making product comparison pages with false info

6 点作者 hajrice11 个月前
One of our competitors ranks for $X alternative. Then, the blog post is complete misinformation. We reached out, they change it, only to revert back to the original version. Has happened multiple times.<p>What would you do?

If they&#x27;re in the same country, talk to a suitable lawyer. A letter from a lawyer may be enough to get them to stop.<p>Follow thesuperbigfrog&#x27;s suggestion too, but don&#x27;t just link to their pages, quote them (maybe as screenshots so search engines don&#x27;t grab the bad things) and link to archive.org copies.

Sounds on the surface of like deliberate commercial libel; given the multiple change&#x2F;revert cycles, talking to a lawyer sounds like a good idea. A lot of companies will respond more compliantly to a C&amp;D from an attorney than to a polite request from another firm.

It’s probably not worth it to go all they way to a court. But I do agree that having a lawyer sending them a letter might be worth considering.

Sounds like a possible legal issue, as mkl said, talking to a lawyer is probably what you need to do.

It happens a lot in SaaS, this needs to stop. I think calling them out on your website will do the job.

Create a blog post that calls out all the misinformation, why&#x2F;how it is false, and links to their page with the false information.<p>If they continue to revert back to the pages they are either incompetent or malicious. In either case, you need to get the facts out so that people are not misled.
