Local Lighthouse - Review in SEO and Reputation Management category
Called me over and over. Said they were google, talked me into new web site, it was written by a 2 year old that can not speak proper English. I rewrote the whole thing. Could get changes done. I canceled account. They kept taking money I canceled 4 more times. I had to cancel my cc. Then they changed my business number to the wrong number and have been advertising the wrong number for 1.5 years. I can't get them to take it down.

I happen to know for a fact the servers were not Russian. They use Amazon servers (AWS) using their US West availability zone, which is in Oregon actually.
I know this because I worked there and personally set up and maintained those servers. I don't normally respond to stuff, but you are an *** if you think they are from Russia.

Original review posted by user Apr 06, 2016
I thought they were a division of Google so I never questioned them. I spent $750.00 on a *** website they designed. But because I trusted Google, I let it go and waited a couple of months to see how muxh my business would grow....it didn't! I was told my monthly fee would be $40.00 but no they billed my credit card $100.00 Since my credit card statements were paperless It took me a while to realize it. I have asked for my money back on the monthly fees but feel I deserve the web fees too. Come on what kind of website is names....homedecorinlongbeachca.com!

Bad bad bad
Dont do it -- Very disappointing! I was promised things that were not delivered and still had to pay = for no service This company is the biggest scam and the service and sales reps mislead you. They convince you that they are giving you this free website and all it they give you is a landing site that will redirect people to your existing site. Sales rep (Chris Grieder) specifically told me that they make me a complete new website for my business and would no longer need my old site. This was completely false and despite other reps saying that he should not have told me that, there was nothing they could do to let me out of my contract. Worst customer service and business relationship I have encountered in my life. Do not sign anything with this company and if they call you
Nope I was contacted by Lighthouse and was told they would not comply. They do not have an email or anything in writing to deduct $100.00 mo charge, when I was told it would be $40.00 a mo after the Web page was developed.
They turned it on me and asked me If I had proof!
