Competitors Inflating their Rankings with Fake Reviews?

You’re playing fair. But are your competitors? They’re gaming the system with fake 5-star reviews—and it’s hurting your visibility, traffic, and trust.

Now you can fight back—without lifting a finger.

With Competitor Review Monitoring, we automatically:

✅ Monitor up to 15 competitors’ Google reviews

✅ Detect suspicious review activity, including fake positives

✅ Dispute unethical reviews through official Google channels

✅ Level the playing field and protect your local SEO rankings

Unethical Reviews Are Distorting the Local Search Landscape

Your competitors may be boosting their rankings by flooding Google with fake 5-star reviews. Whether it’s bots, fake profiles, or paid review farms, the result is the same:

They rank higher. You lose traffic, trust, and revenue.

Manual monitoring is nearly impossible:

Review spam is subtle, persistent, and hard to prove.
Google’s reporting tools are slow, inconsistent, and resource-draining.
Your team doesn’t have time to play “review detective.”

Meanwhile, the bad actors keep climbing the map pack—while you're left playing catch-up.
