This post just shows how serious reviews can be (real or fake).

People have been doing this since the stone age. Reputation is a big deal!

Anyone found an alternative? It's much easier to get written reviews then it is to get people to log into a site many times. Especially for older people who are not so tech savvy.

Thanks OP for the heads up.

Not sure if you misunderstood my statement there. I meant to say what you just said. Definitely stupid to jump into this business model, to whoever thinking of making their own alternatives...

I had been using GR's to crush local comp. Sucks it has been down for a while but the service was WAY to good to last long. Check out LBLrobot. Not the same and does not do Yelp. It say they do Google listings but I think I have had 2-3 go though a month. There are a few good guys on Fiverr that can get google reviews done and have English accounts. Usually priced $5 for 2-3 reviews. As far as Yelp you need to get real reviews. If it's a BS business you are pretty much screwed for yelp reviews.

Good luck out there!
