They want users engaged over and over again, reviewing multiple businesses and coming back to utilize the system so their ACCOUNT is deemed legitimate. Yelp doesn't want a business owner to send someone out to give a glowing (likely not very detailed) review and then never use the site again. And NONE of them had more than 15 reviews. If you advertise, many of those 1-star reviews will appear in the non recommended section for as long as you keep advertising.ġ1% of those users had more than 10 reviews, so you're basically proving my point. Many of these non recommended reviews are people with profile photos, friends, multiple reviews, etc.Īgain, I know nothing about the company above, I'm just replying to your completely wrong comment that "I can guarantee those filtered are from users with likely a) no photo b) short, generic reviews c) few reviews overall."Īnd it works in reverse too. Overall rating was definitely knocked drown from 5 stars overall by having 41% of their reviews hidden into the "not recommended" and it's not an accident that literally all of these reviews are glowing reviews. Just read the reviews and you can see they are 5 stars. I casually just found another Photographer who is NOT a Yelp Advertiser (This is NOT me) to give you view an example:Ģ6 Not Recommended Reviews - All non-recommended reviews are excellent, likely all 5 stars but now Yelp just grays out the not recommended,mmended star rating to hide that they are all likely 5 star reviews. Since you likely will never admit you're dead wrong.
