Give ‘Em A Bit More Rope… Restaurant Reviews

By georgiafeedback

Recently I mentioned how some restaurant review sites, like Yelp in particular, have been used to bludgeon the unsuspecting restaurateur.

The way this allegedly works is if (and when) a restaurant gets a negative review there is very little s/he can do about it…unless they respond (positively) to a sales rep who coincidentally contacts the restaurateur, shortly after that negative review appears on the site. (I won’t even go into the idea of “who” is writing such reviews….and “why”…but you can figure that one out when you check the two sites I mention below…)

This above article was copied from Restaurant Marketing Journal  a very interesting blog

    Hey, if you’re going to take my content from my own blog and post it on your site…..at least make the link to the article a LIVE ONE.

    You say: “Read Full Story: and give a one and one half line link to it, that no one will be bothered to type into their browser.

    It you take my stuff for your own blog, at least give me full credit by making sure your readers can read my stuff.

    Otherwise you are violating my copyright.

    Please advise…your future intentions…

    I guess the lesson here is not to always believe what you read and use the different resources out there tracking restaurant reviews.
