Hello,

there are no sites where patients can rate their general practitioners, dentists, psychologists and, for students, teachers, without fear of censorship and prosecution in Germany. I want to setup such a site, with no censorship and no possibility for the "other side" to get comments removed. Source of income would be the premium accounts for the reviewed should they want to increase their reputation, and a special fee if they try to get results deindexed from Google, which of course I would circumvent and add a little notice that this person tried to get unfavorable reviews deleted by Google.

Such a business would have to run from an offshore location with good payment processors that wouldn't refuse to do business with such a site. Where would you base such a company, which country is best for the bank account, which payment processors would you recommend? Paypal would be important, as many Germans don't use credit cards.

Hello NetShop ISP,

this is correct. Because of possible interference with German laws I'm looking for a location with strong free speech and weak "diffamation" laws, as well as the possibility to do good business within the EU.

Would you consider the SEO aspect to be too difficult in Germany? It is also a personal matter for me.
 
Yes, as a form of "aggregator", where comments from other sites are included with proper source quoting. Also, comments that have been deleted from other sites are included with the note "comment was deleted, possible censorship".
 
The project is currently in the planning state. Before starting I wanted to get your experience in terms of a good company setup, with bank accounts and payment processor in locations that fit the project. I don't want the project running into severe difficulties because of an error in planning.
 
Hi GoWest,

Are you planning to "target" the German market? Based on our experience in this industry (from the hosting, web development and SEO aspect), you should focus in Middle East (specifically Israel), Cyprus and the UK.
Please elaborate. You cited hosting, web development and SEO. What are the benefits of these locations, in which regards?
 
Hi GoWest,

These 3 countries (especially Israel and Cyprus) are known for their exceptional medical services. Cyprus, for example, for having a few very good private hospitals for heart surgeries.
Israel, on the other hand, for its general surgeons and neurologists.

That's why I asked in my previous post why/if you are planning to target only the German market.
