<div class="bbWrapper">Man, a guy I&#039;ve enjoyed conversing with on Facebook who had a pretty solid brand built is worried. I never realized how much of his empire was built on literally thousands of reviews that are likely to vanish overnight at some point in the near future. The day before the announcement he was encouraging me to use the same strategy with my relaunch, and at the time I was so worried I was considering it...<br /> <br /> Thousands and thousands of dollars thrown at giveaways that could have been spent on FB ads, PPC, you name it are going up in smoke. I suspect in some cases this will legitimately lead to bankruptcies, which is crazy. They had to know it was a gamble, though.</div>

<div class="bbWrapper">Excellent! When researching competition in the niche I want to enter, I did not find a single(!) review that was not in some way &quot;bought&quot;. <br /> <br /> I haven&#039;t seen any movement here in Germany yet, but I expect that reviews will disappear here, too. <br /> <br /> It&#039;s almost like Amazon is calling to me: &quot;petkovic, come to us. It is time...&quot;</div>

<div class="bbWrapper">Seems like Amazon is removing all incented reviews, including retrospectively. The reddit fba and product testing subs are pretty full of it. <br /> <br /> As a consumer not a seller on Amazon, good and about time. The tons of incentived review shit were a cancer and made a once powerful, valuable and trustworthy purchase assister an untrustworthy minefield you had to waste time wading through. Good riddance! <img src="/community/imgs/emoticons/em-smile2.png" class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":)" title="Smile :)" data-shortname=":)" /></div>

 

[jesset17]

<div class="bbWrapper">As a consumer turned seller on Amazon, I am glad they are removing paid reviews and even entire listings. All of the products on the first page of my category have over half of the reviews stating I received this product at discount in exchange for an unbiased review etc etc. I hope to see these listings drop off or disappear soon.<br /> <br /> Great time to start selling if you have a product that can gain 5 star reviews based off of quality and customer satisfaction.</div>

[million$$$smile]

<div class="bbWrapper">Fake product reviews is no different than brand prostitution.<br /> Paying a reviewer to post an &#039;honest&#039; review&#039;, to me is just a form of bribery.<br /> It is not a principal that I feel creates lasting value for a business<br /> Amazon has realized that its not good for their business either as it cheapens the Amazon brand if the consumer can&#039;t trust reviews.<br /> The fastlane of &#039;paying&#039; for reviews is not Fastlane, there are better ways of gaining popularity; it just takes a bit of creativity, and will go much further.<br /> <br /> Now back to the shadows...</div>

 

[Jon L]

<div class="bbWrapper">As a consumer, I&#039;m very happy that Amazon&#039;s done this. I&#039;ve gotten to the point where I don&#039;t trust the positive reviews. The only ones I look at are the negative ones. If all the negative reviews are from people that just don&#039;t &#039;get&#039; the product (they&#039;re trying to use a clock radio as a hammer, for example), and the product looks good otherwise, I&#039;ll buy it. If the negative reviews describe actual problems with the product, I&#039;ll stay away.</div>

 

[Late Start]

<div class="bbWrapper">Amazon made another big announcement today (well, not so much as a big announcement as just a blurb at the bottom of the FBA signup page) - any new (as in brand new, just signed up) seller who didn&#039;t have a shipment in by today (the 10th) will have to wait until December 19th to get one shipped in. If you&#039;re not an existing FBA seller, Q4 will be strictly an FBM affair.</div>

 

[strobe]

<div class="bbWrapper">Good thing this happend now. I have been researching Amazon and pretty much every &quot;Guru&quot; has been talking about giving out 100 or more units of a product to review groups in exchange for reviews. I heard a podcast today about it where they guy was trying to say you could still send out the products to review groups but you just couldn&#039;t &quot;Ask&quot; them for a review which is the exact same thing and good thing it is finished so that products are genuine with real reviews. <br /> <br /> Amazon should incentivise customers to leave reviews a bit more though. I leave reviews when I buy a book for example if it provided great value.</div>

[Vigilante]

<div class="bbWrapper">Amazon has started a deeper purge of fake, incentivized or otherwise fraudulent reviews.<br /> <br /> People who continue to attempt to game the system do so at great risk as Amazon bans are lifetime bans.<br /> <br /> The people at this forum (for the most part) preach starting legitimate businesses, with products that solve needs, creating their own consumer demand and real, organic product reviews. The best way to build a business has NEVER been fraudulently gaming loopholes to try and short circuit providing value to consumers.</div>

 

[petkovic]

<div class="bbWrapper">Apparently, this is not yet active in Germany. In a news article on golem.de (from October 4th) an Amazon spokesperson said they don&#039;t want to speculate about the future when asked when the new rules would apply here. I am looking forward to it, though.</div>

And I&#039;d turn it around to ask how you would approach this then if you were new to the market. Since you are much more established I suspect this new barrier to entry is good news. For the rest of us, it presents more of a challenge.<br /> <br /> <i><u>&#039;Real world&#039; example.</u></i><br /> A friend of mine recently published a book an has it on Amazon. She&#039;s been trying to establish some kind of a rank on there and has been requesting honest reviews from people in her networks. This includes contacts she&#039;s made at publishing companies as well as personal friends. Her issue now is that she believes (<a href="http://www.publishersweekly.com/pw/by-topic/columns-and-blogs/soapbox/article/71891-why-most-amazon-reader-reviews-are-worthless.html" target="_blank" class="link link--external" rel="noopener">based on this blog post</a>) that Amazon is purging these ratings based on her connections on social platforms. Aside from advertising and trying to gain reach/sales via PPC or organic, what else can she do to help build rank?</div>

It seems like a lot of work for each product launch to drive around to meet 25-50 random people just to give them $10. <br /> <br /> As the reviewer, $10 wouldn&#039;t even be worth the inconvience of having to meet with somebody, sit down and let them see me post. I could also take the money and just edit my review to reflect what really happened. It&#039;s still playing with fire</div>

You can still create the edge in no time regardless of this new policy change. Just order your own product under a new name (same address) every time. Keep ordering. If your product costs $100, order 5. The money will obviously return back to you in your bank account. And you can use that same money to order 5 more. Repeat. Money will always return to you while leaving a beautiful mark of reviews. It&#039;s no different. You just need a couple weeks of legwork while setting it up and you&#039;ll have a running business in no time. Great, so you&#039;ve got a ton of reviews. Now all you need to do is shell a few hundreds on advertisement and you&#039;ll see the ranks of cash quadrupling.<br /> <br /> P:S: You can escape Amazon charges by purchasing $40/month subscription. Build off your reviews in that month and cancel subscription at the end of the month. Win-win.<br /> <br /> If you&#039;ve got no product to sell. Just steal. Go to hot trending products. Let&#039;s say you picked up a Portable charger or a wireless earphones. Order it. Take it apart once it ships. Hire a 3D modeller to model you a cool headphone design ($100). 3D print it and stuff in the tech inside it or you can have it professionally done (or just order a bulk, seriously. But make sure it&#039;s a profitable category). Now advertise it. And voila! watch as money pours in. If you need a boost, hire a videographer and have your 4k product video created. Simple as that.</div>

I&#039;ve researched into this to find that Amazon follows a robotic algorithm where it automatically catches and bans members when they repeatedly order the same thing over and over with different accounts BUT with the SAME IP address. So cut off the IP address issue and there won&#039;t be more doors to clear. Also, diversifying the delivery address to a friend or two (or family member) wouldn&#039;t hurt. I&#039;ve done this before with 6 straight reviews so far without getting banned at all so I don&#039;t know how this is a &quot;horrible advice&quot;. You should give this a shot yourself on a test product to see if this will chart. Mine sure did. And I am 100% serious. Try it.</div>

 

[StartupMonkey]

<div class="bbWrapper">And by the way, even if you happen to get banned (which you won&#039;t) so what? So what if you get banned? Just create a new account. Your merchant account will not be affected. Even if Amazon decides to ban you, only your buyer account will be banned, not seller. Funds will be reimbursed as well once you&#039;re banned (buyer account). Merchant will not be banned because there is ZERO affiliation. So there is ZERO loss.<br /> <br /> You just need to be very careful with the slieght of hand and must understand Amazon&#039;s auto ban algorithm if you want to go that route.</div>
