Delete: This article does not have any independent reliable sources, as Serplogic is NOT a notable brand or website for inclusion in Wikipedia. Of the three references, one is a press release. Please delete this article.
Strong Delete: After reviewing the website of Serplogic, I found that they "sell Wikipedia pages", and editorial links (pay-to-play), which is against TOS of all news websites they are selling. Also, the website has no notability, aside from one news link they purchased, in which still shows no impact the site's made to be worthy of article space. Furthermore, the fact that this subject sells Wikipedia pages, I think Serplogic should be blacklisted from Wiki for deceitful practices. "AJ Agrawal" from Inc, he is a well-known pay-to-play contributing author who gives editorial links to random people in exchange for money. "Tommy Macdonald" upon doing research I found that his business is solely run by pay-to-play services with unethical writers who are desperate for money. Additionally, the Digital Journal article is a press release - press releases are not reliable sources. Tech Cocktail isn't a reliable source either. Macdonald also has a ton of disputes on ripoff report claiming he has scammed people and sells blackhat services to manipulate Google's SEO algorithm. Macdonald is lucky Google hasn't penalized his website, that's until someone snitches. I don't think anything else should be said except: speedy deletion.
