Google still has it marked as a site hosting malware.

The bottom of the page has instructions for asking Google for a review.

I got the Google message yesterday too, but it has now cleared.

Could a few of you check and make sure you NOW have access?

No problems here.

so now is the time to get the site up to date!! I know I sound like a broken record, but the pictures and narrative descriptions of the individual models are often several years old. John, don't you think it would help your business to spend a few minutes or even hours fixing this?

How many people buy VMPS speakers after going to the website? I think that number would be really, really low. I heard them before I bought them. I guess you could look at options and the like and perhaps pricing. That might be useful.

I am a VMPS owner and totally agree. The website is outdated. You guys need some better Marketing tactics (unless you are really not trying to grow the business). No disrespect at all, just my humble opinion. Brian has fantastic Customer Service! The quality and sound of the VMPS products I have owned make me a return customer.

Well..., that is precisely my point. The current website isn't nearly as likely to attract new customers as an up-to-date, well-designed one might be.

Now www.vmpsaudio.com takes you right back here to audiocircle!

EDIT: Now it's just gone again.

John Casler · « **Reply #16 on:** 2 Jul 2012, 04:28 am »

I guess it looks like a problem in the transfer to the new server.

YELP should not be able to post inaccurate information.

That "is not" the present address for VMPS, nor is it the present phone number.

And yes, VMPS is still in business.

As per Big B,

As for the Yelp listing that is the address and old fax number from 3 years ago. Our main number, 510-222-4276 has been in operation since 1985. Factory address is 2025 Rumrill Blvd #8. We moved to an adjacent space 3 years ago due to a leaky roof in our old warehouse which the landlord could not afford to fix.

I've sent a note to Yelp and will edit the company info on their site to reflect the new phone number. All it takes is one Yelper to declare a business closed for that to happen. I also added some photos and a review. If a few more people do the same they will "re-open" the business.
