The reliability of online reviews?

 

 

On most Authors' or other Online Product reviews, there are Bots or people who give low ratings on popular products/books/music, etc.  Some are accurate but rarely.  I look at them to determine if a product works or not.  Five Star ratings do not always give accurate feedback for a product like a radio or computer part.  Self-Published Authors have one-star ratings seldomly (unless it is a person the Author knows) but most well-known Authors have at least 5 of them, composed by the competition.  Other Authors have teams of book buyers to attack Authors who are more popular at the time.  Amazon has rules about this, and won't remove them usually.

I advise if people want to counter the fake online reviews on my Books list, just buy the book & hit 5 Stars on it and watch how long it would take to balance them with the Bots.  Then you can donate the book to a Charity or Library Book Sale that supports Library programs in your town or city.
