Many buyers utilize B2B portals to find suppliers, and small business owners also use these portals to reduce their sales and marketing costs. The truth is, after you checked all the suppliers on B2B portals, not any of the actually big companies are using it, here is why:
1) Do you often receive emails containing a zip or a link that tells you to reset your password? If yes, then you may wonder how this person finds you? Why are they so interested in your email account and want to crack your password? The truth is that some are partially from B2B portals, and partially hackers parasitize on B2B portals. Regardless of whether you're a supplier or a buyer, these individuals are interested in you because they want to obtain all your customer information and resell it to someone else. This is why you should eliminate the B2B portal.
2) The B2B portal is using your information to market itself. To get traffic to their website, they need something called keywords. These are often your company name, email address, and telephone number, which always become. When someone searches for your company information on Google, the B2B portal's website appears immediately after your company website. As a result, visitors are directed to their website, and they resell this traffic for a reasonable price.
3) The B2B portal is doing something perplexing to you. They mark the product at half the selling price, and sometimes even as low as one dollar, to attract traffic and attention. However, when you actually want to buy, the price is very high. This is not important; counterfeit products are often the best choices to sell on B2B portals because suppliers don't care about their reputation. It's the reputation of the B2B portal that matters. As long as they make money, they will go. Or just change their name and continue to sell something else.
4) Top listed B2B platforms especially the giants are using big data to monitor everything you do include every click of your mouse and scroll of the screen, this is like installing a security camera in your home. You’re completely naked when you’re using them. They know what you want, they will suggest to you who paid them the most, not the one who has the best product and prices.
