Online Reviews Are Getting Worse

Unfortunately, in the game of online reviews, the deck is stacked against you.

In the first place, the rate of positive reviews left on review websites has been declining steadily for several years. Add to that the increase in negative review rates that began during the pandemic in 2020, and the problem compounds.

Whatever the reason for these changes—whether it’s review fatigue, more critical customer bases, or something else—businesses are suffering. Add to that fake reviews, exploitative reviews looking for compensation, and reviews mistakenly left for totally different businesses, and maintaining your online reputation becomes a maddening prospect.

If that weren’t enough, another factor making online reputation management difficult is the review platforms themselves.

Despite the overall decrease in positive reviews and increase in negative reviews, these platforms generally do not allow businesses to solicit positive reviews from patrons.

Some will solicit positive reviews for you, but the fact is they have no stake in succeeding. A negative review is just as valuable to them as a positive review, if not more so since negative reviews are often longer and more…exciting. They have no incentive to diligently seek after positive reviews. After all, it’s not their business that’s hurting.

In the same vein, review platforms have very little motivation to remove negative reviews, even of the fake or unfair variety. All content is good content for them; they want to accumulate as many unique reviews as possible to provide content for their platform, giving preference especially to reviews that are lengthy, entertaining, or shocking.

Review platform employees are incentivized to do nothing to help you when you need to dispute a review. The hours of phone calls, submitting appeals, and constant fighting to keep your request in front of them is a frustrating and time-consuming enterprise.

Any time you spend chasing after review websites to remove these negative reviews is time not spent helping clients or taking care of a real estate professional’s many responsibilities. And lastly, but not insignificantly, there’s the added stress of dealing with this on your own.
