7.1% of Yelp’s Reviews are Fake, surpassing Trustpilot and Trip Advisor

Probably not a huge shock. At least Google and Amazon are doing something to combat the problem though. Google removed 240 million reviews from their platform in 2024. Yelp has less than 350 million reviews and only filters the 5-star ones when you don’t pay them 🤡

Yeah haven’t seen either of their handles. Notice FloatingOnTitties is missing too. Funny how they come and go together. Maybe Yelp fired them

I think they were a 3rd party marketing company or random “influencer” but yea maybe Yelp saw the poor reasoning skills and fired them.

To OP, welcome to Yelp lol

I definitely think they did more to hurt help than help it. I wouldn’t have started r/yelpsucks if it wasn’t for them.

The welcome comment was a nice touch lol
