    I think it essentially came down to ad revenue and websites tailoring their content to fit Google’s algorithm.

    I use to work for a local pest control company who would legit check google reviews, contact their guy at google ad’s and then ask to have the bad reviews removed and the company would pay for that.

        I never got to find out. I would just email some manager saying we got a bad review and then she’d “take care of it”

        it was all very sketchy.
