Review of WebBuddy LLC
The script created by these scammers is a mess. I had a script hosted on a shared hosting for $15 per month, which was stored entirely on a single server. Last year I wanted a new, more modern script, so I found a script on CodeCanyon sold by these lousy scammers. They boasted that their script could be hosted for free on Vercel. I took the bait and bought their script. After their installation, the site looked pretty nice; I also received a database with 5000 articles.
And the problems began!
1. The first problems appeared when I could not modify the categories, I could not modify the contact details, I could not modify the sponsored content, I could not change the logo in the footer of the site, I could not modify the content of the Terms, Privacy, About, FAQ pages. The shock was even greater when I found that my site was running ads from Google, ads that I hadn't placed.
2. I contacted support and they said they would fix the problems shortly with the next update, except for the one with the ads; ads that are injected by them on the site and, if I don't want to see them anymore, to use an adblocker to block them! (AFTER 3 MONTHS THE ERRORS WERE NOT FIXED).
3. Their script must be installed on 5 different servers, which have limited versions (just like 000webhost hosting was in the 2010s, on the free version you had a limit on the number of visitors to the site ......).
Do you think the problems ended here? No, the ordeal of bills begins. In the first month I received bills from Vercel, MongoDB, Clerk, Cloudinary, GitHub for a total of 180 dollars. I paid the bills, although I didn't understand why; they said I had exceeded the limits allocated for a free user. The following month I found out that I had been billed another $300 for these services.
I asked for help from a consulting firm I had worked with before and was surprised by their response.
Regarding the invoices, Vercel, MongoDB, Clerk, Cloudinary, GitHub have free versions for testing, not for a site that has traffic (on the old site I had approx. 14,000 unique visitors per month, on the new site I had approx. 30,000, I didn't understand why this traffic explosion), but the difference in traffic was caused by bots created by these bastards to increase users' invoices.
The same consulting firm showed me how the people at WebBuddyLLC inject Google ads into my site, how they have total access to it.
I made a negative comment about this issue on CodeCanyon, but the comment was deleted. I gave up on their script and now everything is fine.
I was left with a bitter taste when I saw that all the negative comments on CodeCanyon, Trustpilot, Clutch were deleted; let's hope they don't disappear from here.
All the negative reviews here are 100% real, in fact, the only real reviews!
