The Problem with Fake Ratings and Reviews

 

 

 

Our SocialCRM customers consistently tell us that one of the most valuable features of the product is our Consumer Review service provided through SureCritic.com. They mention reasons such “reviews are great word-of-mouth marketing” and that reviews “provide great Internet visibility for my business.”
