Nowadays I'll commence a series of articles comparing how a new website named PissedConsumer.com developed by and for customers' stacks up against the industry experienced Consumer Reports. What will be the crucial factor, the ardor or the experience?

You will see the dissimilarity at once when you try to load the same parts of those sites. This is obvious that Consumer Reports is developed by true experts and has got quite pleasant look. It is actually handy for your eyes to adapt as the main tones used are grey, white and light blue. Here you may see a huge amount of various links and pictures that are completed with small articles. Pissed Consumer also uses a simple interface with a gorgeous red and white hue. You can see that Consumer Reports looks considerably more professional. That is the consequence of many advertisement banners placed on the main page which are supplied by Google. Additionally, while there are many links, there are no pictures and the font utilized is not absolutely uniform making reading a bit difficult on the eye. There are some sections which are quite useful. The first section significantly simplifies the action of seeking for some recently discussed articles and complaints. The other is a “hot topics” section with single word hyperlinks to the subject. The only thing that I didn't like is the little font size used in the hyperlinks that are placed in hot topic section.

For the customer who visits Consumer Reports at the first time it is really easy to seek for some required topics as they are strictly divided into some main themes. There is a Consumer Reports Magazine, but there are many topics on their website that comprise the discussions of the issues located in this magazine. From the other side, while Pissed Consumer was arranged, it was to a much lesser degree. The front page includes the most lately posted complaints and articles that can be a bit confusing to a first time visitor. There is a board that comprises a lot of topics. This board is actually flaring but the topics are not arranged by their themes appropriately. Both sites include some perfect searching engines which make the navigation processes performed by visitors actually easy. Lots of Internet users that are offered to visit these websites at the first time mention that Consumer Reports comprises more information than Pissed Consumer. Pissed Consumer doesn't propose a proper interface that is why it seems to be less helpful, but it really may brag of lots of unique and really helpful information.

These sites cover practically the identical range of subject matters of topics but Consumer Report seems to be better organized and attentive for its customers. So, it wouldn't take much time to gain the information you are interested in. This feature involves lots of clients. Our small research demonstrates that Pissed Consumer is not so comfortable and attractive for visitors as Consumer Reports does.
