Well don't take it on trust, validate it works. And keep validating it still works, because one day it won't. Everyone seems to sell out in the end.
What do you mean by "validate it"?
I've used fakespot for purchases for a while now. I feel that it's helped me avoid bad products. Thus... it's validated (at lease for myself)
It's impossible to validate. Further for all we know Fakespot (which curiously has been mentioned multiple times) might itself be a fake that undermines products that are sponsored, etc. It probably isn't, I'm just saying.
? You could manually analyze the reviewers for suspicious non-specificity, typical of paid reviewers for whom it is not cost effective to write a tailored review when they are being paid pennies per post.
Also over time you could compare the quality of products that it says have fake reviews vs ones it says does not.
But how can I trust what you're saying? What if you've been paid off by Fakespot?
That's why I'm launching my new website, SpotFakeFakeSpot, which helps spot fake fake review spotting sites. I got the idea from my time as a sales rep selling radar detector detectors to police departments.
Thanks.
I had no idea there's a full scale electronic war on the streets of my city.
You have no idea, man. Radar detectors these days even have radar detector detector detectors built in.
