Amazon bans incentivized reviews tied to free or discounted products
I like it! I think it's about time Amazon got rid of incentivized reviews. I love Amazon for the reviews it offers and to tarnish that trust with incentivized reviews undermines why people like Amazon.
"Amazon is making a significant change to its Community Guidelines, announced today, which will eliminate any incentivized reviews"
[...]
"Amazon has historically prohibited compensation for reviews – even going so far as to sue those businesses who pay for ⊗⊗⊗⊗ reviews, as well as the individuals who write them, in an effort to make its review and rating system fairer and more helpful to online shoppers. However, it has allowed businesses to offer products to customers in exchange for their “honest” review."
Re: Amazon bans incentivized reviews tied to free or discounted products
As someone who buys periodically on Amazon it drives me crazy looking at reviews of products and they all say I may have received a discount or compensation for this review.
