Hello,
Crowdfunding is already tough enough doing it by yourself. I'm glad there are a few great blogs out there with great free information to help with the process of raising funds for a crowdfunding project.
I paid Ayudos to feature my project on their homepage and bring in extra backers and views to my crowdfunding project. They did a pretty good job of that and were responsive to my campaign's needs overall.
They were very helpful with consulting and reviewing my page for improvements. They also were punctual with the article they wrote and published on their homepage, blog and on a press release newswire.
They are just another crowd funding company out to try to make a few bucks off desperate campaign owners.
We ordered either the first or second day the campaign started, we were off to a great start but I just wanted a PR for incase some media went looking they wouldn't have to start from square one.
Ayudos didn't get back to me with an actual Press Release until we were at 170% funding( 9 days later). They got back to me with the crappiest PR i have seen. We have been featured on several major websites so far, and their free PRs were *******x better than what our paid PR was.
For us its not about losing 50 or 100 bucks it's about the principle of the matter and this company does not have any of said principles.
For the ayudos guy who comments back to this: or project was the pointie
Hi,
I want to share my experience with this company ayudos.com, everyone must know that is a SCAM!
My story starts when I appealed to ayudos to help me with a campaign on Indiegogo.
So I ordered Basic package($49) that contains several services to promote a crowdfunding campaign.
From there began a real scam:
- they will not respond to your messages or if responding they always saying to wait;
- they will send by email a press release, but NEVER will distribute to any asociated press;
- you have the chance that your campaign will not be featured in their homepage(at their discretion);
- Daily Social Media Promotion + Ads FORGET THAT, they will make a SINGLE post on their facebook and twitter, but no guarantee that people are real;
- you will not get any analysis or stats, or you can get a simple page goo. Gl to see that you have 10-15 clicks per day;
- they will always say that did work, but you will not be able to ever see it;
- or who knows what surprises still have prepared in this SCAM SCHEME!
After all that, I asked for more information or return my money, and here the BIGGEST SURPRISE!
IMPORTANT!
Ayudos returned my money, and... THEY BLOCKED MY ACCOUNT ON INDIEGOGO!
How? Ayudos reported my campaign as a scam, and Indiegogo closed my account.
Whois service show that the site ayudos.com owner has hidden information about him. Why?
To be convinced that ayudos is 100% SCAM do a search in google ayudos.com reviews!
Answer: Yes, very helpful for me!

Hello,
First, you havent posted any evidence that you are even a former client of ours.
Second, WE HAVE NEVER REPORTED ANY CROWDFUNDING CAMPAIGN THAT WE HAVE WORKED WITH!
If you were blocked from Indiegogo it was because you did something to get your self blocked on Indiegogo or someone else reported you.
Also, you have used the name MIke G.? The name of our Editor and CEO as your username?
That's childish and unprofessional. I'm not surprised your Indiegogo project was taken down if this is how you conduct yourself.
The claim that we reported this project to Indiegogo is completelt false and I would take this review with a grain of salt.
This is most likely a review left by a competing website in the crowdfunding niche.
