Is this another merchant advertising scam?
Another Money making scheme?

I found there is NO consumer voice, feedback, rating what so ever in this
site.
This sound worse than BBB. BBB in the Santa Clara county was caught in money
making scheme on their so call rating system. At least BBB sometimes toke
consumer complaints and show it.

How could it be otherwise?

Low-rent "J.D. Power", as far as I can tell.

True, you must take their word on it. I suppose they are themselves
subject to the cumulative values of their own ratings, i.e. if they
"certify" companies with poor service, eventually nobody will take them
seriously. I'm not sure, without knowing any of the Bay Area businesses
they rate, whether they are worth taking seriously now, but YMMV. That
would be the minimum standard, for me -- that they had given
certification to a business I personally knew deserved it, or did not
deserve it, as the case may be.

Otherwise, chalk it up to advertorial.
