20+ Images Of People Sharing The Wildest And Utterly Hilarious Google Reviews They’ve Seen
With a vast number of online review platforms available to anyone with an email address and internet access, one can't help but wonder how helpful some written reviews can be.
Google is the world's largest and most influential internet search engine, capable of collecting a wide range of data about our surrounding world. We rely on it, particularly during the lockdowns and restrictions of the past few years. Gretchen Rubin, happiness researcher and author, emphasizes the importance of online presence, stating, "In a world where attention is scarce, online reviews can significantly influence a customer’s decision to spend their hard-earned money." Reaching the top of Google's search results with glowing reviews is, of course, a goal that many businesses strive to achieve. It helps enhance their success and drives profits.
Reviews are an excellent way to disseminate accurate information about a product or service and advise others on whether it is worth their time and money. With a vast number of online review platforms available to anyone with an email address and internet access, one can't help but wonder how helpful some written reviews can be. Dr. Angela Duckworth, character researcher, notes, "The authenticity of reviews can create a powerful connection between consumers and businesses."
Truth be told, if you dig deeper, you'll find a wide range of unusual and silly explanations behind both incredible and terrible reviews. Furthermore, some business owners even go as far as retaliating against their detractors, resulting in some ridiculous yet amusing comments. In a recent article, Dr. Jonathan Haidt, social psychologist, highlights how the dynamics of online reviews can lead to unexpected outcomes, stating, "The stories behind reviews often reveal more about human behavior than the products themselves."
Take a look at them below and enjoy a good laugh.
