Lightbulb Ever you do trust online review or not?

Ever you do trust online review or not?

My own thoughts with a good point is what happen going on:

I am don't really trust the online review due the good reason is many people are smart to not tell you about this going on is happen since so I am ready to tell you the secret:

When they did to write down the review to see other people reactions and try to make less people to not buy those stuff as they just have their favorite stuff only.

In my own opinion is it is very wrong idea to write down the review to just see other people reactions and just want see other people to not buy those stuff.

one review? probably not, several reviews start to show trends and similarities. Even so some reviewers are motivated to get more equipment to review so nothing is ever really bad...

I am not trust people due to good reasons, which I am not ready to tell you the secret.

In my own opinion it is very wrong idea to write on website and never back up anything with a photo and just want see other people reactions.

@ Photography

To answer your question.
"Ever you do trust online review or not?"

It depends on the review site and source.

======================

Some reviews are written by users who are just trying to help other people with a decision.

Here is an example (written by me) of a camera bag, with photographs.
I do not have any connection with any photographic manufacturer beside purchasing their products.

Example is here:

As someone who writes reviews often, I'd like to hope that people that bother to take time to write reviews are actually just telling it like it is - do you actually have any fact to back up your argument, or are you just saying what you think?

Sime - I was in my thoughts to have my own opinion only as i am just not going into the argument. I am here that if people read my topic talking about they need to improving on reviews than what they did been like to write down the review to see other people reactions and try to make less people to not buy those stuff as they just have their favorite stuff only. If you understand my point. I am have a good point to bring that question to others can suggest it.

*scratches head*

i think the answer you are looking for is luke, i am not your father.

Failing that reviews can make or break repuations - i think this is what you're asking you're a hard one to understand and i do feel as if i am conversing with yoda crossed with chewbacca - and if you're implying people should fix reviews of a product in order to affect sales and/or reputation then thats a bit wrong my friend.

I believe she is saying just the opposite. That some people put out reviews, especially unfavorable reviews, in order to bolster sales of competing products. At least that's my take on it.

Naturally there is evidence of this, but it's a secret due to security reasons, and she doesn't want to argue about it.
