I need some work done and many recommended Base Analytics so I thought to check their website for pricing and looks like they will only share their pricing if I contact them. I really hate such companies.

    Oh I actually have a legitimately good reason for why the company I work for doesn’t list pricing!

    I work as a tour guide at a local nature attraction, got a campground as well. It’s a privately owned thing, and a small, sorta hole in the wall place. In the past there’s been big issues of third party websites, usually illegitimate, taking info about our pricing and services and selling tickets/camp lots to customers without our know or say.

    Customer shows up after paying the not-us website, complains when we have no record of them nor their payment. They technically never paid us, only a scamming website, so we can’t honor those tickets.

    It was a big enough deal that reservations are currently only over the phone or in person. Kinda sucks, but it’s best for everybody involved for now.

      I don’t follow how that solves the issue? If anything by removing online purchases from your own website you’re further pushing users to go to the scam site
